  • Command passed as argument to shell script

    - by raj_arni
    Hi, I want to pass a command to a shell script. This command is a grep command. While executing I am getting the following errors, please help: myscript.sh "egrep 'ERROR|FATAL' \*20100428\*.log | grep -v aString" myscript.sh is a simple script: #!/bin/ksh cd log $1 the errors are: egrep: can't open | egrep: can't open grep egrep: can't open -v egrep: can't open aString Error is because egrap sees |, grep, -v and aString as arguments.

  • C signal parent process from child

    - by Gary
    I'm trying to solve a problem I've got where a child process runs execvp() and needs to let the parent know if it returns. So, after the execvp() returns (because there's been an error), how can I tell the parent that this particular event has happened so it can handle it. There's one method of writing a string of text through the pipe I'm using and then reading that from the parent.. but it seems a bit sloppy. Is there a better way? Thanks!

  • Saving CFPropertyLists To Users Folder

    - by stephen blinkhorn
    I'm trying to save a CFPropertyList to a location in the user's home folder. Using the code below I'm getting errorCode = -10 (unknown error). CFURLRef fileURL = CFURLCreateWithFileSystemPath(kCFAllocatorDefault, CFSTR("~/testfile.txt"), kCFURLPOSIXPathStyle, false ); SInt32 errorCode; Boolean status = CFURLWriteDataAndPropertiesToResource(fileURL, xmlData, NULL, &errorCode); If I change the path to something like "/testfile.txt" without the '~' then everything works. How can one save a property list to the current user's home folder? Must one obtain the user's name first and include it in the path such as /users/toffler/testfile.txt?

  • How to (legitimately) access files after putting self into chrooted sandbox?

    - by unknown google user
    Changing a Linux C++ program which gives the user limited file access. Thus the program chroots itself to a sandbox with the files the user can get at. All worked well. Now, however, the program needs to access some files for its own needs (not the user's) but they are outside the sandbox. I know chroot allows access to files opened before the chroot but in this case the needed files could a few among many hundreds so it is obviously impractical to open them all just for the couple that might be required. Is there any way to get at the files?

  • Understanding EXE Internals

    - by Steve
    I was attempting to install an exe that requires a serial number before the install, which the vendor has not provided to us yet. This got my wheels turning about whether there is any information that can be gained from viewing an exe using a hex editor/VI/etc? Using VI to view an exe, I can see some sections of plain text, but it is difficult to determine what it refers to without any context around it. Is it possible to determine any information by reading an exe? Thanks

  • how can i get the file permission of a directory with java

    - by user571652
    i try to check the permission granted to a directory in linux, i mean i have a directory with permission 755 berty@berty-laptop:~$ ls -l / |grep directory drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2011-01-10 12:33 directory how can i read that permission with java?

  • Bash scripting - Iterating through "variable" variable names for a list of associative arrays

    - by user1550254
    I've got a variable list of associative arrays that I want to iterate through and retrieve their key/value pairs. I iterate through a single associative array by listing all its keys and getting the values, ie. for key in "${!queue1[@]}" do echo "key : $key" echo "value : ${queue1[$key]}" done The tricky part is that the names of the associative arrays are variable variables, e.g. given count = 5, the associative arrays would be named queue1, queue2, queue3, queue4, queue5. I'm trying to replace the sequence above based on a count, but so far every combination of parentheses and eval has not yielded much more then bad substitution errors. e.g below: for count in {1,2,3,4,5} do for key in "${!queue${count}[@]}" do echo "key : $key" echo "value : ${queue${count}[$key]}" done done Help would be very much appreciated!

  • Bash: Is it ok to use same input file as output of a piped command?

    - by Amro
    Consider something like: cat file | command > file Is this good practice? Could this overwrite the input file as the same time as we are reading it, or is it always read first in memory then piped to second command? Obviously I can use temp files as intermediary step, but I'm just wondering.. t=$(mktemp) cat file | command > ${t} && mv ${t} file

  • NTPD: use an unrestricted port for communication

    - by Cetra
    When querying ntp servers with the command ntpdate, I can use the -u argument to make the source port an unrestricted port (port 1024 and above). With ntpd, which is meant to run in the background, I can't seem to find a way to turn this option on. So the source port is always 123. It's playing around horribly with my firewall configuration. Is there a configuration option in ntp.conf to make it use a random source port?

  • How to print lines from a file that have repeated more than six times

    - by Mike
    I have a file containing the data shown below. The first comma-delimited field may be repeated any number of times, and I want to print only the lines after the sixth repetition of any value of this field For example, there are eight fields with 1111111 as the first field, and I want to print only the seventh and eighth of these records Input file: 1111111,aaaaaaaa,14 1111111,bbbbbbbb,14 1111111,cccccccc,14 1111111,dddddddd,14 1111111,eeeeeeee,14 1111111,ffffffff,14 1111111,gggggggg,14 1111111,hhhhhhhh,14 2222222,aaaaaaaa,14 2222222,bbbbbbbb,14 2222222,cccccccc,14 2222222,dddddddd,14 2222222,eeeeeeee,14 2222222,ffffffff,14 2222222,gggggggg,14 3333333,aaaaaaaa,14 3333333,bbbbbbbb,14 3333333,cccccccc,14 3333333,dddddddd,14 3333333,eeeeeeee,14 3333333,ffffffff,14 3333333,gggggggg,14 3333333,hhhhhhhh,14 Output: 1111111,gggggggg,14 1111111,hhhhhhhh,14 2222222,gggggggg,14 3333333,gggggggg,14 3333333,hhhhhhhh,14 What I have tried is to transponse the 2nd and 3rd fields with respect to 1st, so that I can use nawk on the field of $7 or $8 #!/usr/bin/ksh awk -F"," '{ a[$1]; b[$1]=b[$1]","$2 c[$1]=c[$1]","$3} END{ for(i in a){ print i","b[i]","c[i]} } ' file > output.txt

  • Howto Plot "Reverse" Cumulative Frequency Graph With ECDF

    - by neversaint
    I have no problem plotting the following cumulative frequency graph plot like this. library(Hmisc) pre.test <- rnorm(100,50,10) post.test <- rnorm(100,55,10) x <- c(pre.test, post.test) g <- c(rep('Pre',length(pre.test)),rep('Post',length(post.test))) Ecdf(x, group=g, what="f", xlab='Test Results', label.curves=list(keys=1:2)) But I want to show the graph in forms of the "reverse" cumulative frequency of values x ? (i.e. something equivalent to what="1-f"). Is there a way to do it? Other suggestions in R other than using Hmisc are also very much welcomed.

  • reading a file that doesn't exist

    - by John
    Hi, I have got a small program that prints the contents of files using the system call - read. unsigned char buffer[8]; size_t offset=0; size_t bytes_read; int i; int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY); do{ bytes_read = read(fd, buffer, sizeof(buffer)); printf("0x%06x : ", offset); for(i=0; i<bytes_read; ++i) { printf("%c ", buffer[i]); } printf("\n"); offset = offset + bytes_read; }while(bytes_read == sizeof(buffer)); Now while running I give a file name that doesn't exist. It prints some kind of data mixed with environment variables and a segmentation fault at the end. How is this possible? What is the program printing? Thanks, John

  • Does deleting 'M'odified line in SVN Commit have an effect

    - by cdated
    When running the commandsvn ci you get a text editor that allows you to place a comment, below that is there is the text "--This line, and those below, will be ignored--", then the files modified, added, or deleted. If I were to delete a line such as: M folderA/fileA Would it remove that file from the check in, or is that just an SVN comment that has no other effect?

  • How do I grep for entire, possibly wrapped, lines of code?

    - by NXT
    When searching code for strings, I constantly run into the problem that I get meaningless, context-less results. For example, if a function call is split across 3 lines, and I search for the name of a parameter, I get the parameter on a line by itself and not the name of the function. For example, in a file containing ... someFunctionCall ("test", MY_CONSTANT, (some *really) - long / expression); grepping for MY_CONSTANT would return a line that looked like this: MY_CONSTANT, Likewise, in a comment block: ///////////////////////////////////////// // FIXMESOON, do..while is the wrong choice here, because // it makes the wrong thing happen ///////////////////////////////////////// Grepping for FIXMESOON gives the very frustrating answer: // FIXMESOON, do..while is the wrong choice here, because When there are thousands of hits, single line results are a little meaningless. What I would like to do is have grep be aware of the start and stop points of source code lines, something as simple as having it consider ";" as the line separator would be a good start. Bonus points if you can make it return the entire comment block if the hit is inside a comment. I know you can't do this with grep alone. I also am aware of the option to have grep return a certain number of lines of content. Any suggestions on how to accomplish under Linux? FYI my preferred languages are C and Perl. I'm sure I could write something, but I know that somebody must have already done this. Thanks!
