Untested code.
# Always...
use strict;
use warnings;
my %ip = ...;
#Get the lines as an array.
my @lines = keys %ip;
# Slight modification to the regex. Someone else's reply will probably
have a more elegant method.
my $ipSearch = qr/[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}/;
# Use variables for filehandles.
open my $CHANGE, "> $changeFile" or die;
print CHANGE "NO\n" unless ( grep ( $ipSearch, @lines ) );
Sorry for all the emails. Here is another thing I have a question about.
is there a cleaner way to perform the following:
my @lines = keys(%Input);
print CHANGE "*** NO blah\n" unless ( grep ("blah", @lines) );
print CHANGE "*** NO blah2\n" unless ( grep ("blah2 $any_ipaddress",
@lines) );
print CHANGE "*** NO blah3\n" unless ( grep ("blah3", @lines) );
print CHANGE "*** NO blah4\n" unless ( grep ("blah4 $some_pattern",
@lines) );
