Here is what I'm doing:
I'm issuing a DOS command on a Windows platform using the backtick mark
(`command`) and getting output from it. That works fine. Now my problem
is parsing the string that gets returned.
I've tried using the preg_match and preg_match_all commands to filter
the information I want, but can't seem to get them to work. I'm not sure
if they are the ones I need to use. I'm attempting to use the following
pattern filter with the preg_match commands:
if (preg_match("/starting./", $output) == 0) {
print "Error logging on to server - unable to get user list.\n";
} else {
array_shift($output);
array_pop($output);
foreach ($output as $line) {
$search_pattern =
"/\s*([^\s]*)\s*AKA\s*\"([^\"]*)\"\s*IN\s*([^\^]*)\^([^\(]*).*/)";
if ( preg_match( $search_pattern, $line, $outarray,
PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE) > 0) {
print "match found";
} else {
print "Error found\n";
exit;
}
}
}
The above code was taken from a PERL script and modified for PHP.
Data output as follows.. Some information has been blanked out for
privacy reasons.
------- Cut here - Data Begin -----------------------------------
Operator Console (version 0.9.8) for 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' starting.
[UIN] AKA "[USERNAME]" IN [URL^ROOMNAME]
(XXXX:XXXX:XXXX)
Operator Console for 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' signing off
------- Cut here - Data End -----------------------------------
The (XXXX:XXXX:XXXX) in the data above can contain alphanumeric
characters.
The large bit of space between the [UIN] and the AKA is actually in the
real data.
Any suggestions?
Thanks much in advance,
Jim
