HOw to import ODL files

[kp_pl]

Is Oracle Diagnostic Logging ( ODL) format supported in any way by Splunk ?
On the forum I have found only one topic regarding it but it had been written 8 years ago ?
This format, I read and analyze every day, is used by SOA and OSB diagnostic logs. It is, more or less, like csv structure but instead of tab/space/comma, each value is pakced into brakets

Below example with the short descrption

Any solution, hints how to manage it in Splunk ?

You can parse this event with rex

However, this assumes you have an empty / not required field for the 4th bracket pair, and that you don't have further nesting of bracketed sub-strings in the Thread ID

ITWhisperer - thanks for your answer  - fits perfect!  

Is the creation of own source-type difficult -  any hints, tutorials about it ?
