General :: Pass All Arguments To A Function?

Jul 6, 2010

I've got a sticky little problem with a bash script. Please consider the following code:

Code:
#! /bin/bash
processArgs() {
echo "Count = $#"
while [[ $# -ne 0 ]]; do
echo $1
shift
done
}

processArgs $* If I call this script with Code: ./script first second third it'll print each of the argument on a new line - exactly what I would expect. However if I call it with

Code: ./script "Single Argument" "Second-Argument" it splits the first argument in two using the space as a delimitor. The problem appears to be the call to processArgs, where $* doesn't honour the quotes around the variables sent to the script.

Programming :: Pass Arguments To A Function Using A Loop

Mar 1, 2010

I need to pass a large number of arguments to a function which takes variable number of arguments, such as gtk_list_store_new. But it doesn't look nice if i write something like gtk_list_store_new(NUM,TYPE_A,TYPE_B,TYPE_C,...,TYPE_OMEGA); because of large number of arguments. And, it will be a trouble to change number of columns because of need to manually change arguments to large number of such functions. So, how can i pass all the arguments to a function using a loop? Something like

Code:
for(i=0;i<NUM;i++)
{
push_arg(args[i]);
}
call_function(func);
?

Of course, i could just use asm code for this, but is there a portable way of doing so?

P.S. i mean C language.

Programming :: Bash Script : Pass Arguments To Second Level Parser?

Jan 14, 2011

I wrote a C++ program that uses two different parsers. The first parser is reading program arguments from command line:./mybin arg1 arg2 ...then during program execution there's an interactive prompt asking for more parameters:

...
>> (second bunch of arguments here)
...

I'd like to run my program inside a bash script, but I don't know how to give the second level arguments.

General :: Bash : Pass Command Line Arguments Containing Special Characters?

Jul 14, 2010

I've written myself a linux program "program" that does something with a regular expression. I want to call the program in the bash shell and pass that regular expression as a command line argument to the program(there are also other command line arguments). A typical regular expression looks like "[abc]_[x|y]".Unfortunately the characters [, ], and | are special characters in bash. Thus, calling "program [abc]_[x|y] anotheragument" doesn't work. Is there a way to pass the expression by using some sort of escape characters or quotation marks etc.?

(Calling program "[abc]_[x|y] anotheragument" isn't working either, because it interprets the two arguments as one.)

General :: Arch Usability - Pass Arguments From A Shell Script To A Program?

May 7, 2010

1. What file do i have to edit in order to include /usr/local/bin in the class path (ie. I put an executable in /usr/local/bin and when I try to execute it, it says the command cannot be found, etc.) EDIT: Solved, just didn't set PATH correctly. EDIT: New problem. When I try to execute a program in /usr/local/bin, it says "fopen: john.ini: File not found" Yet when i cd to /usr/local/bin, it doesn't say that. What would cause this?

2. Once I get my system setup the way i like it, how would i go about making it into a bootable CD/DVD?

3. How would I pass arguments from a shell script to a program?

Fedora :: Can't Save Kernel Arguments

Jan 5, 2010

I am using an Acer Aspire Timeline 4810TZ with F12 installed. I have to enter the kernel argument intel_iommu=off each time I boot. This means pressing escape, going to the correct kernel, pressing A (to change kernel arguments), and then entering the command. I've seen some sources that suggest editing /boot/grub/grub.conf, but I've tried it and it doesn't seem to make a difference. I'm wondering if maybe there's another file that I have to edit, because I don't see the kernel arguments in grub.conf that I see when I press A in the grub menu.

Fedora :: Bash Function With Arguments

So here is the function in a naive attempt:

Programming :: Threads Not Getting Arguments Properly

Mar 26, 2011

I wrote a C program using Pthreads to compute the product of 2 matrices. Each element in the product matrix is computed in a separate thread. Eg: Thread (i,j) computes the element C[i][j] of the matrix C, where C=A*B. A is m*n, B is n*p, C is m*p. m,n,p are given as command-line arguments. A and B are initialized to random values from 1 to 10, while all elements of C are initialized to -1.But some threads do not get their arguments (i,j) correctly. So some elements C[i][j] still remain as -1, even after the program is over. My OS is Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) 32-bit.I ran the program on another computer and it worked correctly. Is it due to a problem in the Pthreads library in my OS? Please help me. I have attached the source code.

Slackware :: SeaMonkey Not Starting - Cannot Run Without Arguments

Apr 25, 2010

I ran installpkg on seamonkey 2.0.4, on Slackware 13.0, and it appeared to install OK. I can run /usr/bin/seamonkey -version and I get the 2.0.4 version number. However, when I run it without arguments, no windows get opened, and there are no errors that I have located (eg messages, syslog). This is probably something real obvious, but I'm drawing a blank. BTW, firefox runs OK.

Debian :: Terminal - Commands Not Taking Arguments

Nov 5, 2010

I'm not really new to debian. Just never encountered this before. I'm not even sure how to describe that. The first time I realized something was wrong when I tried to create a file with dd:
root@strych ~# dd if=/dev/zero of=1GFile -bs=10M count=100
dd: bad operand `-bs=10M'

I mean what, I've done that many times before! Then I noticed that some commands started to behave this way:
root@strych ~# ls --help
--help: No such file or directory

On the other hand...
root@strych ~# fish --help
fish - the friendly interactive shell
or
root@strych ~# apt-get --help
apt 0.8.6 dla i386 skompilowany Oct 4 2010 11:55:22
Usage: apt-get [options] command
apt-get [options] install

So what the hell is wrong with my shell? This is persistent with any type of access: both ssh and local (physical), it's the same when I use sh, fish, bash or whatever. It also doesn't matter which user I'm logged in with. I haven't changed .profiles or anything concerning terminal really, besides installing fish but even that was long before I realised this problem. Actually, I can't think of anything that I've done that could do this. What am I missing? The system is debian testing with kernel 2.6.32-5-686.

Programming :: Bash Reading Arguments, Most Effective Way?

Aug 17, 2010

I've been reading about getopt and getopts but it doesn't seem like it's possible to parse arguments like --foo or even -foo. I've started my own script trying to achieve this, but I'm still wondering if I'm losing performance and if there is a better way to do this task.

Also I'm using the [[ =~ ]] regex syntax which seems to be available only in newer bash versions, should it be a big issue? My bash version: GNU bash, version 4.1.7(2)-release (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)

Programming :: Function Pointers With Variable Arguments
