I am trying to do some shell programs. I tried some sites regarding the while loop, they give the structure as:
Code:
while [ n1 -lt 500 ]
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
But the below code also worked for me:
Code:
while ((n1 > 500))
do
echo $((n1+100))
done
By using (( )) I could use while, for. But the documentations didnt follow this way. I mainly use this for datastructure programming.
hint me why and how to execute the below for loop, the way i am trying to?

I am setting up a cron job, where i am calling a shell script to make few builds. I got struck at a point, need some expert inputs to proceed further. The script is categorized in 5 parts and in the last part while building software it asks for few questions like:-
1. Build mode choice
2. normal build
3. Copy Images
4. Arch
User manually has to input ans for these questions:-
1
yes
n
64
The ans's are fixed and this won't change. How shall i hard-code them or do something in the script so as when script flow reaches to this point it automatically take's these value. So far the cron job is not getting completed as it's waiting for user to key in these values manually. I had faced similar issue while building kernel modules but there it was easier as i had to take default values always:-

I'm looking to get a shell script to loop through a number of directories and subdirectories,looking for files that contain a particular substring, and renaming the file by replacing the search string with a different substring. For example if you had a directory full of folders that contained digital photos (along with various other files which would need to remain unaffected), and the intent was to remove the "DSC_" prefix from several thousand files buried within. I've whipped up a rather long-winded solution that works well for this purpose but chokes on directory names with spaces. I am reasonably sure there's a 2 or 3-liner that would accomplish this exact same task.
function investigate
{
path=$1
for file in `ls $1`

I modified files in several directories, and need to run a diff on the backup I created before modifying the file.
I'm trying to compose a simple shell script to speed up the task, but getting a syntax error.
Here is what I have:
for i in DIR1 DIR2 DIR3 DIR4 DIR5 do;
diff /maindir/subdir/subdir/$i/filename.txt.old /maindir/subdir/subdir/$i/filename.txt;
done
I know the paths are valid, and if I run just the diff command with the actual DIR1 instead of $i it works.

I am doing a web site program and what I need is to call a C program in the PHP cloud.Do u think it would be possible? The web site would get the user input from PHP UI and pass to the C program , the C program would process the function with the user input and output the a PHP page.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have found a weird behaviour on a linux application. A tty seems to get closed without calling close. The program is (very simplified) as follows:
Process 1:
configure_signals()
read_config_files()
create_threads()
wait(forever)
Thread 1:
fd=open(/dev/ttyXX)
usleep(a while)
config(fd)
I have spent quite a lot of time on this problem. It seems like the file is sometimes closed when reaching config(fd), but removing the usleep(a while) seems to remove the problem.

Here's an example of a command i'd like to call: Code: sed -i '4 c192.168.1.4 www.something.com' hosts this is the section in my perl script where I create the variable and call it: Code: $doit = `sed -i '$line c$ip $host hosts'`system($doit); The $line, $ip, and $host variables are working fine becasue I can replace that section with "prints" and they come out fine. I imagine the problem is where I am creating the $doit variable.

I feel like there should be a cleaner way of doing this. I have one file, for example "a.cpp", calling a function from another file, "b.cpp". Currently I have it set up so that header for "b", "b.h", has the declaration of its functions. And then I'm just including "b.h" in "a.cpp". Do I have to include the "b" header file in "a" to be able to call a function from "b"? Or is there a better way I could be doing this? Like doing something different at compile?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use a software package written in ANSI C. It has a makefile which has to be executed first.

I'm trying to call some kernel functions from userspace, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. The functions control a pulse width modulator on an embedded platform. To pick one at random, the function:
Code:
struct pwm_device *pwm_request(int pwm_id, const char *label);
is defined in linux/pwm.h, and the implementation uses the macro EXPORT_SYMBOL(pwm_request), so I should be able to call this from user-space... right?
Anyway, I've got linux/pwm.h to #include in my source so the compiler knows what it's doing, but what do I link against? The only place in by kernel build tree where I can see a symbol pwm_request defined is in object files like vmlinux.o, built-in.o in the directory, etc. which I don't think I should be linking against.
I have written FORTRAN code to calculate density profile. This code will open two files ( topology and x,y,z trajectory). The trajectory file contains XYZ data coordinates for multiple frames (about 20 or 100 frames for instance). One frame contains 20736 data.
Previously this code was written to open ONLY one input XYZ data file and do the calculation and would dump the results in separate file and it was running without problem. Recently my data file get bigger in size, so I decided to break the single XYZ data file into few small parts.
Now I have modified the code so that it calls the parts of the XYZ data files ( eg: maltoTHERMO_10Frames.traj, maltoTHERMO_20Frames.traj,... and so on) and do the calculation and dump the results in the same result output file. I have tested this code just with openning the XYZ coordinates and printing into another file to see wheather it collecting the data sequently and it was working fine.
This code supposedly read the x coordinate data and calculate distance and put a count accoding the criteria in the approperiate bins. But when I let the code to do the calculation it stop and shows error. (I have indicated as !** in the code). If I enable this line, it shows error but if I disable this line, than the code do collect only the XYZ coordinates.
The code is as below:
Code:
module all_parameter
integer,parameter :: MAXATOM=20736!CHANGE
integer,parameter :: midwater=1500
integer,parameter :: TOTALFRAMES=20
