Exec block with regular expression
Sangeetha
Can you explain what exactly happens in this block?
I don't get a clear explanation of what "xEF\xBB\xBF" means in the below code and why it is having drop ()? .
<Exec> if $raw_event =~ /^(\xEF\xBB\xBF)?(date-time,|#)/ drop(); else { csv_parser->parse_csv(); $EventTime = parsedate(${date-time}); } </Exec>
