I'm running into a problem when I try to set a variable to an awk output in c-shell. Right now my command is Code: set STR_MSG_TYPE = `awk -F{ '/msg_type/ {print $2}' <filename> | tr -d }'/''*' ` I then run echo to see what the output is and it returns blank, however, when I run the same awk command from the command line, I get an actual output of "MT-715". Am I setting my variable incorrectly? I do something similar using the date command to set a STR_DATE variable earlier in the code and it works fine and I use the same syntax.

I'm aware that one can export make variables to other makefiles; however, how does one export them to the environment of $(shell)? Take the example below:
Code:
export TEST
VARIABLE=$(shell echo $$TEST)
.PHONY: all
all:
#$(VARIABLE)
In this example, I might call make TEST=test. The goal is for $TEST to be available to the environment of the shell escape. This is because I need its value in a script which is called. For example:
Code:
VARIABLE=$(shell i-need-TEST.sh)My current solution is the following:VARIABLE=$(shell export TEST="$(TEST)"; i-need-TEST.sh) but this only works if I know all if the variables needed at that point (as opposed to being able to export variables in included makefiles.) Is there an easy solution?
I have a question concerning indexing over lists with unix shell scripts. I have very large text files (up to 20 Gb) with the data shown below:

I am trying to modify a script for research purposes and am having difficulty here as I have little prior experience with C-shell scripting.
The script looks as follows (it includes tcl commands like runFEP that you can ignore)
#!/bin/bash
for ((old=1, new=2; old<=4; old++,new++))
a1=${old}%50
a2=${new}%50
do
cat > input${new}.conf <<EOF
${a1}
code....
My question: I keep getting a syntax error when defining my two variables a1 and a2. I essentially need these variables to be
a1 = value of variable old divided by 50
a2 = value of variable new divided by 50
in gnuplot it's possible to set the value of a variable via linux shell command.or instance we can do
Code:
a="`echo 1`"
b="`echo 2`"

Ive created some custom shell scripts to run during the kernels boot process (they are called from the init script).I was wondering if there's any way to assign a variable that can be accessed between different scripts.For example my first script checks which type of pc i am installing on and assigns the hard drive location to a variable.HARDDRIVE = "/dev/sda1"at the end of the script it calls another script. In this script I cant reference HARDDRIVE as it is blank, to get around this I need to repeat the same code for assigning it.Its more of a space/aesthetics issue but I figured someone might know the solution off the top of their head

The output i need is:
I have an RHEL 5 server joined to a windows domain. However I wanted to add variable lines to be executed each time a user logs in. However I succeeded to put them in /etc/bashrc file and it worked like a charm.
But its annoying that everytime the user logs in to the shell remotely it displays the whole variables that were declared. Is there a way how to add them once and not to display the output each time the user logs in?
I'm trying to write a simple shell script, its purpose is not important. The script needs to make use of the system $HOSTNAME environment variable. I had a look at this page which provides the following example.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "You are user $UID on $HOSTNAME"
echo "Your home directory is: $HOME"
echo "$HOSTNAME is running $OSTYPE"

I can define all variables in tcl programming in a file for instance var.cfgand source the same file in my tcl script such assource var.cfgIs this possible in perl too?

Is there some type of functional way to read things in the Python shell interpreter similar to less or more in the bash (and other) command line shells?
Example:
Code:
>>> import subprocess
>>> help(subprocess)
...
[pages of stuff to read]
...
I'm hoping so as I hate scrolling and love how less works with simple keystrokes for page-up/page-down/searching etc.
i'm practicing in very basic c programs using the gcc compiler.I found that when i create two variables let's say
Code:
int a,b and Code: a=15;
b=3;
a=b;
b--;
then a equals 2.I thought that this isn't normal in C isn't it?I haven't had the time to read the gcc documentation yet...so i think it has something to do with my compiler's default settings.I use the
Code: gcc filename.c -o filename command to compile
Are all variables defined like pointers?
I want to check if a MySQL db query will return an empty result - I first do this:
$query="SELECT * from <whatever" ;
$result=mysql_query($query) ;
$row=mysql_fetch_row($result) ;
Now how do I check if $row is empty or not? Will $row="" do the trick?
I have a C header file which have arrays of predefined(known) structure type. But i dont have names of arrays and their size. when i include that file and compile my application, i want to know the names and sizesof those arrays.
purpose of application is to get the content of those arrays and to explain it in descriptive words instead of hex numbers.ofcourse this can be done by file pointers and reading also with out header file inclusion, but as i am working in C, once compiled, those variables are in my address space in i include header file.
I was trying to make a code for passing variables by reference..here's the code:

I am pretty new to PHP so excuse my dumbness. I've searched this up in quite a few places and cant find anything : Basically, I've made an array, within it are 3 more arrays. Their are two values in each array, 'Name' and 'Age'. Basically I am using a While statement to try and cycle through the 'age' value of my array and state whether or not the person is eligible. (I am actually just learning so I'm doing this to just test myself).
Here is my code
Code:
<?php
$people =array(
array('name' => 'Bob', 'age' => 15 ),
array('name' => 'Jhon' , 'age' => 10),
array('name' => 'Sue' , 'age' => 7));
//($value =& $people[0,1,2][age] );
Here was an attempt to try and create a reference to age, I tried it many different ways
while($age < 10) {
echo ('$name, is eligible') ; } ?>
Okay, so I tried to do this through two ways, one way I tried to create a reference to age, then evaluate it, without that line of code their would be no reference, which way is correct, why wont it work? I am using Xammp, so when I launch local host I get an undefined variable error. What To Do?
My php knowledge is very poor (only worked with strings so far), and I am faced which a task that is a real challenge for me: I have a variable, that contains data of different type, in this order: byte, byte, string, string, string, string, short, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, byte, string.
Strings are of variable length. How could this data be parsed into variables of the right type, and then all converted to strings? What are the functions to use? Strings are unicode ones, and they are delimited by "
I just created a website in PHP and tested on my own webserver. All of my session variables worked great. Today I uploaded it to my commercial server host and it does not remember the session vars from one page to the next. Here is the session section of phpinfo().
Code:
session
Session Support enabled
Registered save handlers files user sqlite
Registered serializer handlers php php_binary wddx

session.auto_startOffOff

session.use_cookiesOnOn
session.use_only_cookiesOffOff

You can see that session.save_path is set to /tmp, which is the default on the shared server. /tmp does exist in my document root directory.
Im a fresher in PHP.Actually i wanted to know that whether there will be time delay while using session variables in PHP.By using some 10-20 session variables in my code will it affect the speed of the loading of the page.If so then can u suuggest any other method to pass the varaibles which will not slow down the speed?
