The goal has been set for me but I have no idea how to get there. Apologies in advance.Using Perl - I will be receiving a character delimitated file (whose structure I can dictate) and I need to convert it to a XML like file as such\[code\]<MyConfig> Active = yes Refresh = 10 min <Includes> <Include_Rule_1> Active = yes Match = /Foo [Bb]ar/ </Include_Rule_1> <Include_Rule_2> Active = yes Match = /Baz.*/<Include_Rule_2></Include><Exclude><Exclude_Rule_1>Exclude = /Bim Bam/</Exclude_Rule_1> </Exclude></MyConfig>\[/code\]So in short it will be XML like (individual values are not surrounded by angle brackets) with 3 sections that are constant but their depth will always be unknown.I can use CPAN libraries but prefer not to as this script will need to run on individual servers that I have neither access to or control of.Any ideas ? Starters pointers ? Tips or Tricks ?Sorry I am so lost here.
