Programming :: Create A Script To Cd Into Previous Directory?
May 1, 2009I want to make a script that will automatically change me into the directory I was in previously. I don't know if this could be added to my .bashrc or have it be a standalone script. Can I just alias last="/bin/pwd > /path/to/file"? But then I'd have to add it to the cd command somehow right?

Apr 27, 2011I'm having a bit of trouble understanding umask and mkdir in C++. In my program, I want to create a directory with the permissions 755.
If I do:-
Code:
The permissions come out all messed up.
But if I do:-
Code:
The permissions are set as expected.
I am having trouble understanding why umask(0); is needed, and what is the 'proper' way to use it so I can make my directory. From what I can understand from the man pages and everything, I need to set the umask in my program to allow it permission to make a directory with those permissions? And I don't get why umask(0); fixes it anyway!

General :: Use Mkdir Command To Create 'local' Directory In /usr - There Are Error - Cannot Make Directory
Jun 16, 2010I am a student studying computer science course.
Well, I am facing problem when doing lab questions.
I must use DLXLinux bundled in Bochs (bochs.sourceforge.net).
I am required to use the /usr/local directory.
In /usr directory, there is no directory named 'local' but there is one thing called 'local@'. So, when I try to use mkdir command to create 'local' directory in /usr , there are error "cannot make directory.....".
Look at my screenshot at [url].

Programming :: Else & Return Values?
Oct 12, 2010i am having two small issues with a function i have made.sorry if it is a mess, i am still learning bash.the first is calling the nonpersistssh function (second line) and assigning the return value to nonpersistdiag.the function returns 1, but nonpersistdiag seems to only contain 0. i am unsure on how to proceed.the second problem is the nested else clause on line 10. it is a syntactical error. how would i declare it correctly?

Programming :: What Exactly Does Echo $0 Return
Jan 18, 2010I'm confused about what "echo $0" in a shell actually return. Consider these tests:
Code:
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# # Login shell:
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# echo $0
-bash
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# # Starting a new shell
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# bash
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# echo $0
bash
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# screen
[root@e11apvl151 ~]# echo $0
/bin/bash
Depending on wether the shell is a login shell, a regular shell, or a screen utility, I get different results.
Programming :: Tell If Grep Didn't Return Anything?
Mar 15, 2011I have a file:
979798707
787862348
766428634
I want to see if all the records in the file are present in the contents of the files of a particular directory.
Basically I want to say if grep doesn't return anything, then report.
For example in /tmp dir I have 4 files and flast 2 values (787862348 and 766428634) are present in the files of /tmp dir, but first one (979798707) is not. I want to echo that in a reporting file.
something like:
while read line
do
# if ! grep -rl $line /tmp
echo $line >> are_not_present
done < "myFile"
How do I achieve " if ! grep -rl $line /tmp"? That is, if the line is found by grep, then grep will print the output, but if grep does'nt find it, it will print nothing. How can I check if grep didn't find it (i.e. printed nothing)?

View 3 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Echo Hello Command Does Not Return
Jan 11, 2010I am testing the serial ports on a Single Board Computer(SBC) running Linux kernel 2.6.29. I usually do this by connecting the serial port to another PC serial port, then doing "cat /dev/ttyS0" on PC and "echo hello > /dev/ttyS0" on the SBC. However in the current system, "echo hello > /dev/ttyS0" command does not return at all! Also no characters appear on the destination port. I am running the echo command as root. The system boot messages show that the serial port in indeed /dev/ttyS0.
View 2 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Getting Return Value From Program Ran In Background?
Mar 10, 2010I think my title pretty much explains it. I am writing a script and I want to start a program in the background, and when that program finishes I want to check the return value to make sure there was no error.For example normal I would do something like this:
#!/bin/sh
program
if [ ! $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "There was an error"
exit 1
fi
Now I want to do something like this:
#!/bin/sh
PRTN=`program1 &`
program2
if [ ! $? -eq 0 ]; then
[code]....
In this case if program2 finishes before program1, I don't think the return value from program1 $PRTN would be valid at the time it is checked.

Programming :: Pointer As Function Return Doubt?

When I'm trying this example of function returning a pointer, my compiler is stating a warning that I return a pointer to a local variable. I realized that it is error prone after all this variable may be override before the function has done his execution. And the author is fooling me saying that this example is "perfectly safe". I'm wrong? There is something that I don't got yet? Sorry but this site is preventing me to post the link of book cause I'm a newbie, so a need the hack it. Just strip out the question signs:

Programming :: Wrapping Around Functions With Different Return Types?
Feb 1, 2010I have functions which return different data like: int, char*, double...
I also have a list of datatypes (INTEGER, TEXT, REAL...) which can be returned.
I need to map a datatype with function, which purpose is to return it. Therefore, when I determine a datatype, I would like to call the required function without doing switch all the time.
My idea is to have an array of structs like this:
Code:
struct type_func_map
{
int type;
void (*func_wrapper_int)(void); //void (*func_wrapper_text)(void); void (*func_wrapper_real)(void);
};

Programming :: BASH Read File Once Then Return To Top?
Aug 8, 2010I have a script that reads part of a line, delimited between the first and second intended part by a colon. Then it "chops" the part after the colon, which are words offset by commas (counting them beforehand so as to catch every word in the string's second part), like this:
Code:
"COLORS.JPG:red,orange,yellow,green,"
(Returning)
red
[code]....
single script that parses/breaks both parts of a line like this "COLORS.JPG:red,orange,yellow,green;blue,indigo,violet," so that the two parts, separated into single words (or two and three words, sometimes with spaces) can be used as single-line annotations and written to JPEG files using Exiv2. So far, I haven't been able to come up with a script that does this without one part of the total string(usually that part after the colon) becoming the first word in the second array. In other words, I look for this:
KEYWORDS:
[ ]red
[ ]orange
[ ]yellow
[code]....
Or vice-versa (ie, the second array winds up as a single-line "member" of the first). I think it's because I'm using a single while read loop to read the text file in which the filenames and substrings happen to be. If there's some way of reading a file once and going back to the beginning to read it again in another while loop, I haven't found it.
Programming :: C Bool Return Values Conventions
Oct 30, 2010I have a function that returns a boolean value, True of False. Is there any convention whether 0 = False or 0 = True? It should be obvious, 0=False, 1=True. However programs usually return 0 on success and reserve higher numbers for error values. I.e. if the program finishes successfully (function int main() finishes successfully ), it returns 0 - and that contradicts that 0 should be false.
And especially if I want a function to do some computations on parameters passed by reference and return success status. Should it return 1 (true) for success, or should it return 0 for success - like any Unix program does?
Is there any convention for this?
Programming :: Detect Keypress Without Needing Return?
Oct 21, 2010I'm witting a piece of code that needs to read key presses. However I cannot use them as stream, but rather need discrete reads. The code is to simulate an io board interface. So When I press say "d" I need to read it in instantly, not wait for return. I've tried sdl, but no luck (I'm reading in a thread and it causes some problems) I'm using linux so can't use conio.h functions, I've tired gatch from cureses but this still waits for return.So in C/c++ is there a way I can read instant key presses.
