Programming :: Set The Record Separator To An Empty String?
May 4, 2010I tried to find out how awk works with multiline strings. I found this. I hope it will be useful for somebody. 1. I know that awk can searches simple patterns like '/^one/'
Code:
s="one
two
three"
echo $s | awk '/^one/'
2. I know that "Awk can handle multiline records by specifying the field separator to be a newline and set the record separator to an empty string." I've found it here

General :: Getting Sub-string In A Variable
Jul 13, 2010I'm facing problems in developing the script as there are errors that sometimes i dun have any idea on how to solve it.What i'm doing now is not homework, but i had been assigned to develop some system in linux.
My problem currently is on sub-string matter, where i need to read the line from file/directory and based on the line retrieved,i need to seperate the information in the line and assign as variable..
Below are my script:
Thus, the output something like this: file_name successfully ran on Mon Jul 12 23:15:00 SST 2009.
Now, what i need to do is to extract certain information from that line which is the name, date, time and the status
The desired output is:
So,my next step is to identify the sub-string and assigned as variable first in order to parse the info and output it.
Thus,my script is:
But i received error message which is:

Programming :: Pthread - Take String From The Command Line And Creates A Thread To Print The String
May 3, 2011I'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.
