Hi All ,

          I trying find a solution for my script , I have two files :

file1 - I need a search a error say x if the error matches

Look for the same error x in other file 2

Here is the code :
I have 10 different patterns therefore I used list comprehension and
compiling the pattern so I loop over and find the exact pattern matching

re_comp1 = [re.compile(pattern) for pattern in str1]

for pat in re_comp1:
    if pat.search(st,re.IGNORECASE):
        x = pat.pattern
print x                ===> here it gives the expected output it correct
match
print type(x)

<type 'unicode'>

if re.search('x', line, re.IGNORECASE) is not None:  ===> Gives a wrong
match
      print line

Instead if I use :

if re.search(x, line, re.IGNORECASE) is not None: then no match occurs
      print line

Please advice where I going wrong or what can be done to make it better .

Thanks,
