Hi,
I'm having trouble generating some assignments:

I'm kinda guessing that the 'parent object' that the error message talks
about is meant to be the allocation -- but that exists:
$ whois -h whois-test.ripe.net 62.128.31.128

So, what's the problem here?

Hi all,
for my current work I occasionally patch the Net::Whois::Object Perl
module (http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Net%3A%3AWhois%3A%3AObject) which
supports talking to the RIPE syncupdates API.
Now I'm facing the challenge of parsing the response when creating an
object. For example when creating a new handle, the response used to
include something along the lines of
*** Info: Authorisation for [TS34027-RIPE]
from which I could easily extract the handle (which I don't know in
advance, because the request I sent contained AUTO-1 as the handle).
Now the response doesn't include that information anymore, and instead I get
Create SUCCEEDED: [person] TS34027-RIPE Thomas Schoeller
from which I don't know how to extract the new handle.
I've considered simply using the first word after the [person] block (as
regex, \[.*?\]\s+(\S+) or something similar), but that won't work for an
inetnum, where the primary key contains spaces.
Is there any robust approach on how to extract the primary key from the
response?
(If person records are the only ones where the primary key is generated
from the database, I can special-case that, but it still feels rather
fragile).
Cheers,
Moritz
P.S. I should add that so far, I've been pretty amazed by the quality of
responses on this mailing list, and from RIPE in general. Thanks
everybody, and keep up the good work!
