Subject: File::Data - method "search"
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2015 10:22:02 +0100
To: bug-File-Data [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Domibay - Hugo <hugo [...] domibay.es>
Hello, I used the module "File::Data" to parse log files for certain entries inditified with a certain date and time. According to the explication at http://search.cpan.org/dist/File-Data/lib/File/Data.pm I built a regular expression to identify the entries. I expected to get an Array with the Lines matching the regular expression. I used the deploy: " my @addrs = $o_dat->SEARCH('/^(.*\@.*)$/'); " but I got an Array with a set of "1" in it. Looking at the Source Code I found that the Perl Code was wrong. I needs to changed in this way to achieve the expected result: from: " push(@ret, ($line =~ /$search/)); " to: -> " push(@ret, $line) if($line =~ /$search/); " I also changed the debug report to correct the wrong indication "failed" to -> "result" from: " $self->_debug("search($search) failed(@ret) in file($file) lines($i_cnt)"); " to: " $self->_debug("search($search) lines($i_cnt) in file($file) result(@ret)"); " I hope this helps to benefit the Perl Programmer Community. For my deploy to search in log files I would wish this Module would be able to search several files for the same search expressions. Regards Hugo
Fixed in v1.20
