Programming :: Replacing A String Of Text That Includes "/"
Sep 29, 2010
Suppose I have a file named temp.txt
cat temp.txt
word/one/two/three
If I would like to replace "one" with "six" I would do this:
cat temp.txt | sed 's/one/six/'
word/six/two/three
Now I want to replace "one/two" with "six/seven" and these options don't work:
cat temp.txt | sed 's/one/two/six/seven/' (OFCOURSE)
cat temp.txt | sed 's/"one/two"/"six/seven"/'
I even want to be able to replace "one/two" with "six/seven/eight"

Been at this all morning and fail on every attempt.
I have a file called sitemapindex.xml
Its contents just are names of the other sitemaps. Google gets pissy because it isn't in a http:// format.
So, I need "<loc>sitemap-c1mediawiki-............</loc>" to be replaced with "<loc>http://domain.tld/sitemap-c1mediawiki-............</loc>".
Here's the expression I've been trying:
find /path/to/site/sitemap-index-c1mediawiki* -type f | xargs sed -i 's/[<loc>sitemap]/[<loc>http://domain.tld/]/'
It fails.
I've tried with and without brackets.

I am having trouble writing a script that monitors a text file. When the file contains number 1 (or any other string that is not a command) it does nothing, but when it is something different from 1, it executes that command.
So, there are 2 files: monitor.mon - this is the file that will be checked constanlty; and test.sh - the script that does the job. The monitor.mon file will have its content modified by php. This means a web page will have a form where I input commands and writes does commands in the file. Test.sh will watch when the file's content changes from character 1 to a command, execute that command and write back a 1 so it will not execute it more times.
I tried combining while and if but with no success. Tried reading the file with cat and grep -e but it doesn't seem to recognize when content changes.

I have prepared a static lib(.a) comprising 2 function definitions. I have created a different shared library(.so) comprising 2 more functions. The two functions of .so use the functions defined in the .a file. That is, the .so file uses the services of the .a file. Next, I create an executable that uses the shared library(.so). When I build my executable, it needs to be linked with the .a file as well. it gives me undefined reference for the functions defined in the .a file. Why is that so? I am posing this question because, the .a file has already been included(static linking) while bulding the .so. Is there any workaround so that I need not link the .a file with my final executable?

As much as I didn't want to ask a sed question, especially considering there's already one on this page I've looked as best I could and cant find the solution. Id like to use sed to replace occurrences of a pattern but exclude two or 3 specific lines that are not consecutive. For example I know with 1,10 i could exclude the first 10 lines, what is the syntax if I just wanted to exclude line 3 and 7. The sed command I'm working with right now is for rearranging Ethernets.
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | sed -e '/'"$found1fullmac"'/!s/eth1/'"found1eth"'/' > /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
I would like to replace $found1fullmac with two variables representing line numbers to exclude from the replacement.

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.

So if I'm given a location of a file like:
How can I just take the type of the file at the end? I know I can use strrchr() for a period to get the pointer to the period just before file type. Is there a build in string function that will just take the rest of the string from a certain point on forward in the string? 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.
