General :: Substring Of String In Tag + Shell Script?

Feb 4, 2010

I have a string variable

var1=<default>111</default>

I want the value between default tags 111 in this case.

I treid to use ${var1:10:3}

But the execution gived "bad substitution' error. If the tags are removed and substring is fetched it works fine. Is there any other was to get substring in a string with tags.

Programming :: Find A Substring/member In A String/array Using Bash?

Oct 13, 2010

This may be a basic bash array/string operation related question, but I couldn't find any direct answer. So here it goes:I have a lot of data sorted in various directories. All directories need same processing except for a special group of directories. I have a symbolic link of the script in discussion in each directory. I want the script to get the name of the current directory, check if that belongs to special group and do specific operations.So I get the name of the directory

Code:
mm=`basename `pwd``
Now the the group of directories that needs something different to be done, contains these

Programming :: Csh Shell Script - String Concatenation - Add A New Line Character?

Inside a loop i'm populating a string variable. Because csh doesn't have very good support for arrays I thought of doing this. I want to add a new line character to the end of the concatenation each time the loop iterates. Then at the end print this variable out.

I tried " and some resources said it was just a "". Neither work. What am I doing wrong?

General :: Awk Gsub() Command - String (column) Manipulation - Replace The Value Of The $1 Column In The Awk Print String?

Mar 7, 2010

i use this script to get the time and date of back and fourth transactions for a particular execution id. I use a substr command on the 5th column to to cut the milli seconds off the time value. - otherwise the times would look like 08:30:04.235

grep <executionID> <auditfile> | awk '{ print $1, $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8}
FIX -> Mon 3/1/2010 08:30:04
FIX <- Mon 3/1/2010 08:32:36
FIX <- Mon 3/1/2010 08:35:08

[code].....

anyhow - i append two sed commands to further clarify the direction of the message.

awk '{ print $1, $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8} | sed -e 's/->/ ->IN/g' | sed -e 's/<-/<-OUT/g'
FIX -> IN Mon 3/1/2010 08:30:04
FIX <- OUT Mon 3/1/2010 08:32:36

[code]....

I tried using an awk gsub () command within the string instead of the two seds, but it did not work:

awk '{ print gsub(/<regex>/, <replace with>,$1), $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8}

the sed works ok, but it would be cooler to make the replacement within the awk command:

gsub(/->/,-> IN, $1)

Is there a way where i could replace the value of the $1 column in the awk print string?

General :: String Replace In Filenames - Files Already Contain The String "Soundtrack"

Jun 11, 2011

Moving right along, I have a folder of MP3 files containing various Movie sound tracks and scores. I'm using Audio Tag Tool to tag all the files at once with an "Artist" of "Soundtrack", and to inherit the "Title" tag from the file name. After that, I will rename all the files (Using Audio Tag Tool -- awesome program, btw) with the format "<Artist> - <Title>.mp3"

The problem, is many of my files already contain the string "Soundtrack", which would be redundant. I happen to be a perfectionist, so I'm unable to ignore it and move on. Hence my question to you fine folk: I want to delete all instances of "soundtrack" (-i case irrelevant) in the filenames before I go through the above steps. But, its not quite that simple. This is a sample of some of the file names:

Programming :: Extract A Substring Using Regular Expression With SED

May 7, 2011

I've spent most of the evening browsing the web, trying many things I've found on various forums, but nothing seems to work.

I have a test.txt file containing many lines like the following ones :

...
<insert_random_text>228.00 €<insert_more_random_text>
<insert_random_text>17.50 €<insert_more_random_text>
<insert_random_text>1238.13 €<insert_more_random_text>
...

And I want to extract :

...
228.00
17.50
1238.13
...

There is always one occurrence of € in each line. I want the numeric value that precedes this € occurrence. The random text (before and after) may contain numbers too, so the € may be important to parse, in order to correctly identify the number to return. The last character that precedes the number to extract is always a ">" (coming from an HTML tag).

Programming :: Pthread - Take String From The Command Line And Creates A Thread To Print The String

May 3, 2011

I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.

[Code]....

One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?

Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.

I know it wouldn't be much work to make it myself, but I figured I would find out if it already existed before doing it.
