Brad,
I was able to successfully run this on Windows using ActiveState Perl.
I did get a seg fault when running this on a Solaris 9 box using Perl
5.8.5. I followed through the code and
Text::Balanced::extract_delimited, line 135, provides the seg fault.
In translating the variables, here is the pattern match that is failing:
$$textref =~ m/\G(\s*)((?:\"(?:[^\\\"]*(?:\\.[^\\\"]*)*)\"))/gc
The $textref variable is a scalar pointing to the input line. Only
guessing here, but I wonder if the pattern match is running out of
memory.
Here is a sample routine which gives the desired response instead of
using Text::Balanced::extract_delimited. It runs fine on my sun box
using the input records you gave me:
sub extractDelimited {
my( $line ) = @_;
if( $line !~ /^"/ ) {
return( undef, $line );
}
my $val;
my $remainder;
$line =~ /[^\\]"/g;
my $pos = pos($line);
print $pos, '/', length( $line ), "\n";
if( defined( $pos )) {
return( substr( $line, 0, $pos ), substr( $line, $pos ));
}
return( undef, $line );
}
Try calling this routine instead of Text::Balanced::extract_delimited.
Also, the value in question is $ret[10], not $ret[9].

Mark,
Thanks for the help. Here is the code I am using that seg faults
when I try it.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Text::Balanced qw( extract_delimited );
$line = `/usr/bin/tail -1 /home/arsrv/bin/perlmods/help.txt`;
while ( length($line) ) {
if( substr($line,0,1) eq '"' ) {
( $val, $line ) = extract_delimited( $line, '"' );
last if defined($line) && !defined($val);
$val =~ s/^"//;
$val =~ s/"$//;
$val =~ s/\\\\/\\/g;
$val =~ s/\\r//g;
$val =~ s/\\n/\n/g;
$val =~ s/\\"/"/g;
}
else {
$line =~ s/(\S+)//;
$val = $1;
}
push @ret, $val;
$line =~ s/\s*//;
}
print ">$ret[9]<\n";
exit;
I will tried a new export with the same result. I placed a new arx
file at the address I gave you.
It contains the record before the problem record as well as headers.
Thanks again,
Brad
