Hi Guys,
I have the following text
[08 Jun 2009] DSA-1813-1 evolution-data-server - several vulnerabilities
{CVE-2009-0547 CVE-2009-0582 CVE-2009-0587}
[etch] - evolution-data-server 1.6.3-5etch2
[lenny] - evolution-data-server 2.22.3-1.1+lenny1
[04 Jun 2009] DSA-1812-1 apr-util - several vulnerabilities
{CVE-2009-0023 CVE-2009-1955}
[etch] - apr-util 1.2.7+dfsg-2+etch2
[lenny] - apr-util 1.2.12+dfsg-8+lenny2
... (and a whole lot more)
I would like to parse this so I can get it into a format I can work with.
I don't know anything about parsers, and my brief google has made me think
im not sure I wan't to know about them quite yet! :)
(It looks very complex)
For previous fixed string things, i would normally split each line and
address each element, but this is not the case as there could be multiple
[lenny] or even other entries.
I would like to parse from the date to the next date and treat that all as
one element (if that makes sense)
Does anyone have any suggestions - should I be learning a parser for doing
this? Or is there perhaps an easier way.
Tia!
Stefan
