process input file...

[unprophete]

A text file contains hdisk's unique_ids in the following way:
hdisk0 0228B039606ZZZZZZZZZZZ
hdisk1 0228C010606ZZZZZZZZZZZ
------>123456789

1-5 is the hex value I need to convert to dec, and get finally output (last output column in the output is cut 6-9 from second column of the input file):

hdisk0 8843 0396
hdisk1 8844 0106

I did already something working but maybe someone have better or shorter way.

My code is:

$ cat /tmp/ffff
hdisk0 0228B039606ZZZZZZZZZZZ
hdisk1 0228C010606ZZZZZZZZZZZ
$ cat /tmp/ffff|while read a b;do S=`printf "%d\n" 0x$(echo $b|cut -c1-5)`;L=`echo $b|cut -c6-9`;echo $a $S $L;done
hdisk0 8843 0396
hdisk1 8844 0106
$

I'd have a generic awk program, say hex2dec.awk:

function hex2dec(h      ,i,x,v){
  h=tolower(h)
  for(i=1;i<=length(h);++i){
    x=index("0123456789abcdef",substr(h,i,1))
    if(!x)return"NaN"
    v=(16*v)+x-1
  }
  return sprintf("%d",v)
}

And then your code:

awk -f hex2dec.awk -e '{print $1,hex2dec(substr($2,1,5)),substr($2,6,4)}' /tmp/ffff

Hope This Helps, PH.

#!/bin/bash

while read a b; do
   printf '%s %d %s\n' $a 0x${b::5} ${b:5:4}
done < /tmp/ffff
