Here is what my program made

if field 1 contain 1025 then I replace it by 'XXXXXX'


Code:
cat -u ../LOG_ARCH/test.txt | awk -F'#' '{
# si le champ1 contient le numéro 1025
if ($1=='1025')
{
$1="XXXXXXX"
OFS="#"
print $0
}
}' > ../LOG_ARCH/test.txt



The problem is that my output file is truncate .

Why ? And how can I correct this problem

Thanks for your answers,

 

[hoinz]

hi,
not sure if this is the reason, but:
reading from and writing to the same file never is a good idea.
So try different file names.

I have to work on the same file.

I think , that this problem is du to the input file size only, because when my input file contain few lines only it work's good.

Hi,
I don't think that you have to work on the same file.
If filenames have to be preserved:
The usual way is to use a temporary file for output,
and do a mv afterwards.

ex - myFile <<EOF
%s/^1025#/XXXXXXX#/g
wq!
EOF

Another issue is that in your awk program you discard all record not having $1==1025

Hope This Helps, PH.
