Programming :: Using An Awk Command To Print A Line From A Cvs File?

Mar 4, 2011

I am using an awk command to print a line from a cvs file.the awk command includes an if statement that filter the output-lets say i want to print all the lines that the price field is greater than 30.i have it working when i put the parameters myself.. but when i try to send them with vars it wont work..i am sending the sign of the if statement - can only be: == , < , >it looks like this:

cat file.csv | awk -v sign=">" -v field="2000" '{if($3 sign field) printf "%-12s%-12s%-12s%-12s
",$1,$2,$3,$4}' FS=,

the bold part is the problem , because when i put the sign parameter myself t works great.. i guess its a chars issue but i cant spot it

Software :: Pipeline Data Of Find Command In Array After Processing Contents

Jun 7, 2010

I am searching for a file in a specific folder using the following command and storing it in a log file

find . -maxdepth 2 -type f -name "components.xml" -print | while read obj
do
basename `dirname $obj` >> avail_list.log
done

Here I want to do the following
1. Store each entry after processing in an array variable.
2. Use this array variables as arguments to function calls.

Here my primary objective is to store the entries from 'find' command in an array. So it is ok for me if I am not creating the log file.

Programming :: Global Symbol "$psid" Requires Explicit Package Name At Admin.pl Line 16?

Jul 4, 2011

I have a perl script which was written for me by a professional (I have some basic knowledge), is working fine at the moment but on moving it to a different server as I'm changing a server (new server is shared and supports perl modules), I get the following message"Global symbol "$psid" requires explicit package name at admin.pl line 16". I get this for every single one for my values for the whole script which is about 2000 lines. Same error messages for main and admin.I haven't changed anything on moving it to the new server apart from the first line which is the location of the perl.I thought it would be too much to post the whole script here but anyone has any idea why is doing it taking into account that it works on a different server?

Programming :: Python Passing Multiple Args To Bash

Jan 14, 2011

I have a text string I want to pass as the second arg to a bash shell.

My python line is :

The first arg "gap" works great and the bash shell uses it as $1

I need "fill" passed along as $2 intact

Here is the bash line:

As you can see after the -f it has to be in single quotes and $FILL will complete the single quote

Nothing is getting passed as a second arg from python, I did have the first word at one time but that was 85 tries ago and forgot how I did it!

The bash script complains about an unterminated quote.

Programming :: Effect Of Using Eval To Execute A Command As Opposed To Writing It On The Command-line?

Jun 18, 2010

Code: cmd='date | wc'

$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated. The reason written was that "The execution fails because the pipe is not expanded and is passed to date as an argument".What is meant by expansion of pipe. When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?

Programming :: Command Line Invocation Of Gnome-terminal To Run More Than One Command?

Feb 16, 2010

I am trying to learn how to pass more than a one-command startup for gnome-terminal.

I will give an example of what I'm trying to do here:

Code:
#! /bin/bash
#
#TODO write this for gnome and xterm
USAGE="
${0##*/} [-x] [-g]
code....

However, running with the -g option to invoke gnome-terminal, I get a "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal" error.

This same error occurs if the gnome-terminal line is changed to

Code:
gnome-terminal -e mcTerm

Is there any way to pass more than one command on to gnome-terminal? I have tried various single and double quoting senarios and in a final attempt, I abstracted to an exported function all to no avail. Perhaps even though gnome-term is better at many things than xterm, xterm trumps it in this instance.

Programming :: Adding Line From File1 Into A Line Of Another File Based On Maching IDs

Jan 3, 2011

I wish to add information to one of my files based on matching IDs,

Here is an example

(the id is the 3 colunm)

(the ID is the 2 colunm)

And the output i wish to be

OUTPUT:

So as you can see the ones that do not match are still present, and the ones that do match just have the extra information from file2.txt added to them.

I thought about using join but that only seems to join the ones that match displays thoes only. i would like all the information in the output file.

Programming :: Perl - Delete Line From Text File With Duplicate Match At Beginning Of Line

Apr 1, 2009

Was wondering if any perl guru's could help me with a quick log file adjustment. I have a text file that looks like so (tabs and newlines are revealed so you can see what separates the data):

There are maybe 100 lines of text in this file at any given time. I need to delete all duplicate lines only looking at the first bit of text prior to the first tab. It doesn't matter which one gets deleted as long as there are no two lines that begin with that same text at the beginning before the first tab. So in this example, either the fist line "1234" or the last line "1234" would need to be deleted. I already have code in my script that opens the files - I just need the code to read the text into an array and the part that would find matches based on the above criteria, and make the deletions.

If it would be easier, I can even do a system call and use SED (v4.1.5) and/or AWK (3.1.5) instead.

Programming :: C - Copy File Line By Line With Some Slight Changes?

Mar 2, 2010

In C, I want to make a program that will take a file and replace it with a file that's nearly the same but with some minor changes. Also, I would like to point out that I'm still fairly much a beginner with C. As for an example of the file, I want to take something like this:

Code:

Random Crap
More Random Crap
Even More
Something That Changes XXXXX

[code]....

I figured the best way to go about doing this was to open the file and a blank file, read the original bit by bit and when it gets to the point that needs to be changed exchange the part that needs to be changed with what it should be changed to, delete the original file, and rename the new one to the correct name. So the first problem I've run into (and I'll probably have more) is that when I'm trying to read stuff from the original file, my program doesn't seem to be finding the original. I'm sure much of my problems will be just from not knowing how to use the C functions so bear with me. Right now I have the following:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

[code]...

And when I try to run it I get the following:

Code:

Died Here: No such file or directory
Segmentation fault

Right now the length of 50 was just a random test length. Pretty much I was just trying to get it to read anything from the file. In the end I'm going to want it to read the entire file bit by bit, but at the moment I can't seem to get it to read anything.

Programming :: Read File Line By Line?

Mar 23, 2011

so I have a script that creates couple of txt files. First file output is something like below..

cn=test,ou=something,ou=some,o=org
cn=testa,ou=something,ou=some,o=org
cn=testb,ou=something,ou=some,o=org

second file output is something like below..
usera
userb
userc

Quote:

userdn=`ldapsearch -x -h $server -LLL "(objectclass=person)" dn | grep dn: | cut -d" " -f2 > userdn.txt

for i in $(cat userdn.txt);do

ldapsearch -h $server -p 389 -x -D $admid -w $admpwd -s one -b "$userdn" dn | grep dn: | cut -d" " -f2 | cut -d"=" -f2 | cut -d"," -f1 > user.txt

for i $(cat user.txt);do

echo "$userdn"
done
done

when I ran both ldapsearch commands invidually, they work fine. But when I ran script, I got first file correctly but not the second one. It looks like its not reading the first file correctly and not setting the variable ($userdn) value correctly in the second ldapseach command. I want read first file first line and run the second ldapsearch and continues, then read the second line..and so on.

OpenSUSE :: .jar File Runs Fine In Command Line But Not From File System?

May 3, 2010

My .jar file needs and uses some files in the same directory it's in (everything, including the jar was unzipped into said directory). It runs perfectly when I do java -jar file.jar in the command line, but there's trouble when I double-click the file when running from the file system manager. I've tried a custom command under properties ie java -jar, but the problem is that the .jar file doesn't seem to be able to use any of the files in the same directory. When running, the jar can't find any of the files that it needs.
