Programming :: Script With Variable In If Statement?
Jul 9, 2010
I am trying to create a script to be used on RHEL server. If I replace the $t with a number, the script works. If I try add a variable or the $1, the script doesn?t work (returns all processes even if less than the $t value). I thought that it may be treating it as a literal, but I wasn?t sure of the conversion.
t=$1
echo $t
lcnt=`ps -eo pid,ppid,rss,vsize,pcpu,pmem,cmd -ww --sort=pid | awk '{if ($6 > $t) print

We are building our C++ project in Kdevelop IDE. Every time we run "Run Configure" from the "Build" menu, a file named "libtool" gets automatically generated. This file contains a statement as "ECHO="echo"".f we run "Automake", without modifying the "libtool" the system hangs and theputer needs to be restarted.Therefore every time we run "Run Configure" we need to include the line "echo="echo"" below the statement "ECHO="echo"" manually.I think a script can be written which does the above on its own.I am not a shell script programmer, I know the good tutorials for shell scripts are available on the net, but learning scripting only for this task would be time-consuming and painful.

I'm trying to read content of file to variable and use this variable in for loop. The problem is, when I have c++ comment style in file - /*. Spaces in line are also interpreted as separated lines.
For example:
Code:
Changing $files to "$files" eliminate these problems but causes that whole content of variable is treated as one string (one execution of loop).

my script has a variable which comes in the form +00.00 +0.00 -00.00 or -0.00 (the numbers can be any in that form) for any that have a + symbol I need to remove the +, but if it has a - symbol it needs to stay.
i need to make a new variable with the string from the old variable btut without any plus sign. I have tried a lot of different ways with no success, each thing I tried either left the + or removed the entire string. I think this should work but doesn't
foo=+12.40
bar=${foo#+}

how I can search within a variable and assign the results to a new variable. I'll use the following as an example -
cars="Audi BMW Cadillac Chevy Dodge Ferrari Ford Mercedes"
list=`echo ${cars} | egrep -o '<A?+|<C+'`
with the echo command I get the following output assigned to list -
A
C
C
What I'd like to get for output is -
Audi
Cadillac
Chevy
how I could do this regardless of upper/lower case letters?

When you use an if statement directly in bash you have to put the ";" at the end or not? or am I mixing it with the for loop? I am reading advance bash scripting and it shows the if - then statements without ";" so I need a little clarification here.

I have a site which will have, for example, a login system where people have to enter their usernames and passwords, depending on which they'll be let in to the site. So, in code, I've got a line like:
if ($_POST['password'] == $password) {
then do whatever
}
else { print "Wrong password" ; )
My problem is, this "Wrong password" printing is just a solitary line, not keeping with the colours and style of the site, and it looks very bad. I want to ideally, output some HTML, which will have a picture, and print the "Wrong password" in the font and colours I desire. Do I have to put all the HTML in a print statement, and then deal with the nightmare of escaping all the quote marks in it with a ""? Or is there a cleaner method to the whole thing? Maybe something like this -
if ($_POST['password'] == $password) {
then do whatever
}

the following works and BASH doesn't complain, but VIM highlights the closing square bracket is if it sees a syntax error. Is there a better way to express regex in a case statement or is this an issue with VIM?

It is under PHP/MySQL
$queryresult = $conn->query("INSERT INTO normalrequests VALUES($finalkey, 1234, 5678, FALSE)");
It is connected to the database successfully but I feel there is something wrong with the statement up there.

This script that I found online does the job it promises. it does convert the files to mp3 without an issue. What I need to include now is an if statement that says If $file.mp3 exists then delete $file.wav
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# name of this script: wav2mp3.sh
# wav to mp3
# Credit to the script creator (Nikesh Jauhari):

After that I'm stumped as to how to do the if statement

I've started dabbling with the case statement in order to pass some option's arguments into variables. I do not think I am doing this right.
Code:
usage() {
echo "Usage: $0 [-z|--snooze] [-c|--channel] [-p|--playlist]
[-m|--message] [-v|--mpcvolume]"
[code]....
As you can see, I want to pass arguments depending on the option(s) chosen by the user; ie. --snooze, or --channel. By default, if no options are chosen, I'll display a usage message; though in the future I'll provide some sane defaults. I'd like to create a case statement to handle passing arguments to any number of options; something like:
Code:
wakethehellup.sh --snooze 20 --message 'wake up!'
and for the other arguments, it would have a default set. The case statement I provided fails with a syntax error "syntax error near unexpected token `$2'" near the '--snooze' in the statement, so I take it you can't pass a parameter in this way; but I'm confused as to how I'm supposed to pass different parameters to different options without the options being confused as parameters.

I want to match for this string:
Code:
Content-Transfer-Encoding:[:space:]base64
Content-Disposition:[:space:]attachment;[:space:]filename="%variable%"
Both lines are new lines, so they won't be inline. Other than that, they are all constants, I want this regex match to be an if statement rather than returning match string. so if the $content variable contains some string that matches:
Code:
if `sed "//p"` ;

A question of ODBC correctness - maybe someone knows.
Code:
// statement handle is sth, connection handle is dbch
SQLExecDirect(sth, ...);
// ... bind var, fetch results ...
SQLFreeHandle(SQL_HANDLE_STMT, sth); // free statement handle
SQLEndTran(SQLHANDLE_DBC, dbch, SQL_COMMIT);
(error checking removed for clarity).
To my mind this seems wrong - surely the statement handle should be free'd only after the commit is done? Or maybe not. I theorize about the ODBC library like this: a whole set of statements can be created, run, executed in one transaction (which is held at the connection level), and only after all that is a commit/rollback done. So maybe it's OK. Even so it still feels weird. What is written above works, but there are rare and very difficult to replicate problems with this code, and I wonder if a premature free might be the cause...?

how do I get this regular expression to work in an if/else statement? This is just a little script for learning BASH. don't be too harsh.
This script will test if a certain number of files with 1-4 in their filename exist and print their filename. An error message will be printed if not.
#
for i in `ls file[1-9]`
do
if [[ "$i" == *1-4 ]] ; then
echo "This file, $i, ends in a number between 1-4"
else
echo "Error, this file, $i, does not end with a number between 1-4"
fi
done
I get this error. ./file_test.sh: 13: [[: not found

At the moment I got my md5sum checking working which I write to a text file and see below.
If the md5sum works it will write the output to check2.md5 test.txt: OK
If the md5sum fails it will write test.txt: FAILED
How do I write if statement to check the output whether or not the md5sum failed or not ?
check1="/home/ops/Desktop/test1/check1.md5"
check2="/home/ops/Desktop/test1/check2.md5"
cd /home/ops/Desktop/test1
md5sum test.txt > $check1

I was doing an exercise on Learning Perl, 3rd edition. (exercise chapter 10 btw) The problem asks to create a program that generates a random number and asks the user to guess. It should tell the user if the guess is lower or higher and exit if the user types either exit or quit. My code is the following:
Code:

$correct = int(1+rand 100);

I have to enhance the behaviour of a backup script written in perl. I don't need to change it, what I need to do is to create a bash script that does some checks like file name and file size, execute the backup script then check if the backup files match the original files.Here's how I try to do it:
- read the files from the original files folder
- store them in an array
- search in the array the files that have a specific file extension
- store the file names that match the search pattern (I know the backup script skips some files so I can hardcode the search pattern)
- run the backup script
- read the files from the backup folder
- store them in an array
- compare the original files name and size stored in an array with those from the backup folder
- send a report email

If I'm in a directory and I want to move into the next directory I just type it in raw without the relative ./ All I use is cd "next directory" enter. So my point is that I can not find a purpose for the "./" statement other than to state it on paper ;or the like as , ./directory/directory (from whatever current directory) I was in. Is the "./" statement for an older version of BASH?
