Programming :: Script For Executing A Program And Doing String Comparison

May 6, 2009

I am fairly new to linux still and I'm currently trying to write a shell script (which I have never done) that is supposed to run the xrestop(like top) program. What I want to do is execute the program and check the identifier column to see if a certain program is running. If it is running I want to strip the data from that row of the terminal say every 5 seconds or so and put it in a text file. Is this going to be a complicated thing?

Heres a list of the columns when you run xrestop program res-base Wins GCs Fnts Pxms Misc PxmMem Other Total PID Identifier.

Programming :: String Comparison - Get Regular Expression To Work In If / Else Statement?

Jun 29, 2010

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

Programming :: Pthread - Take String From The Command Line And Creates A Thread To Print The String

May 3, 2011

I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.

[Code]....

One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?

Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.

So if I'm given a location of a file like:

How can I just take the type of the file at the end? I know I can use strrchr() for a period to get the pointer to the period just before file type. Is there a build in string function that will just take the rest of the string from a certain point on forward in the string? I know it wouldn't be much work to make it myself, but I figured I would find out if it already existed before doing it.

Hardware :: DDR2 800/667 RAM On A 667 FSB - Comparison

Feb 9, 2010

I'm looking at a new board that supports both DDR2 800 and DDR2 667. But, the FSB is only 667MHz. My question is: is there a benefit of using the DDR2 800 on the 667 FSB? That is, can the DDR2 800 be fully utilized on this system? What are pros and cons of such? Does the added benefit outweigh the additional cost of the RAM?

Note: I'm not looking to overclock at all, and this is not going to be used for 3D apps (games or video editing).

Programming :: Getting A Comparison Operator To Work?

Feb 8, 2010

I'm very new at Bash scripting and have a bone head issue that I'm trying (and failing) to resolve. I cannot get this one IF statement to work, it seems the comparison operator does not think the resulting number from the $b*$c+$b operation is an integer even though it is a number. Below is a small proof of concept script with the bit I'm having trouble with.

Code:

a=800
b=700
c=.15
if [ "$a" -le "$(echo "($b*$c+$b)"|bc)" ]

Programming :: Operator For Floating Point Comparison?

May 10, 2011

I know it is wrong to use the "==" operator to compare the equality of two floating point numbers. Logically it would seem that if the "==" operator is not usable for floating point comparison, then the "<=" operator would also not be usable. Is this true? The lack of google search results on this topic made me think that it must be true. If that is true, then is it true that the only way to compare floats with <= or >= is with something like the code below? Code: bool smaller_than_or_equal(float a, float b) {

if ( fabs(a-b) < EPSILON){return true;}
else if (a < b) {return true;}
else {return false;}

} I think this is a general question, but if specifics are necessary, I am using the C++ language to code at the moment.

Software :: Hex Editor With 'comparison' / Video Capture?

Apr 10, 2011

i have used many Hex Editors in windows, almost all had comparison features, even notepad++ to an extent could do this. I have 2 binary files, i just want to compare the differences easily and graphically, in windows HexWorkshop did this with the click of a button. I have tried 5-6 editors from the ubuntu repos but none have this option

2) Is there any desktop video capturing software that are more catered for tutorials etc where the whole desktop is captured. (Camtasia for windows i know it a massive bit of kit, but thats the sort of software im on about)

I have tried recordMyDesktop, XVidCap and a few others. However, they capture XServer and therefore things like desktop effects arent recorded. I have used VLCs screen capture which to be honest is better than the other 2 software i mentioned for recording the whole screen, but options are very limited.
