Else Loop Exiting Early
All,
I'm having a problem w/this function. Specifically, I want to call another function (get_stats) when the process in the else completes (the initial if and the elsif seem to work fine). But what's happening is the get_stats function call is running after the else runs only once, NOT when it completes. I need the else condtion to run until the process completes, THEN call get_stats. Thanks in advance!
check_ul_process()
{
PROGRAM=8675309
LONG_SLEEP=5
SLEEP_TIME=1
UL_PROCESS=$(ps -eaf | grep $PROGRAM | grep -v grep | wc -l)
# if 8675309 isn't running
# and it's not being run by cron,
# re-check
if [ $UL_PROCESS -eq 0 ]
then
while [ $LONG_SLEEP -gt 0 ]
do
if test $STARTED_BY_CRON = "False"
then
echo "\rTime to next check - $LONG_SLEEP\c"
fi
let LONG_SLEEP=LONG_SLEEP-1
sleep $SLEEP_TIME
done
LONG_SLEEP=5
check_ul_process
elsif [ $UL_PROCESS -eq 0 -a $UL_FILE_TYPE = TEMP ]
# if a ul_temp file exists
# and 8675309 is not running,
# log error and exit.
echo $(expr substr $(hostname) 5 2 | tr 'a-z' 'A-Z') "::" $(date +'%D %T') ":: Exiting. A .ul_temp file exists, but the upload process isn't running." >> /ops/log/ulgen_report.log #~/test_report.log
exit
else
# if 8675309 is running
# and it's not being run by cron,
# check it until it completes
while [ $LONG_SLEEP -gt 0 ]
do
if test $STARTED_BY_CRON = "False"
then
echo "\rTime to next check - $LONG_SLEEP\c"
fi
let LONG_SLEEP=LONG_SLEEP-1
sleep $SLEEP_TIME
done
LONG_SLEEP=5
get_stats
exit
fi

io::async::loop::glib
IO::Async::Loop::Glib(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Async::Loop::Glib(3pm)
NAME
"IO::Async::Loop::Glib" - use "IO::Async" with Glib or GTK
SYNOPSIS
use IO::Async::Loop::Glib;
my $loop = IO::Async::Loop::Glib->new();
$loop->add( ... );
...
# Rest of GLib/Gtk program that uses GLib
Glib::MainLoop->new->run();
Or
$loop->loop_forever();
Or
while(1) {
$loop->loop_once();
}
DESCRIPTION
This subclass of "IO::Async::Loop" uses the "Glib::MainLoop" to perform read-ready and write-ready tests.
The appropriate "Glib::IO" sources are added or removed from the "Glib::MainLoop" when notifiers are added or removed from the set, or when
they change their "want_writeready" status. The callbacks are called automatically by Glib itself; no special methods on this loop object
are required.
CONSTRUCTOR
$loop = IO::Async::Loop::Glib->new()
This function returns a new instance of a "IO::Async::Loop::Glib" object. It takes no special arguments.
METHODS
There are no special methods in this subclass, other than those provided by the "IO::Async::Loop" base class.
$count = $loop->loop_once( $timeout )
This method calls the "iteration()" method on the underlying "Glib::MainContext". If a timeout value is supplied, then a Glib timeout will
be installed, to interrupt the loop at that time. If Glib indicates that any callbacks were fired, then this method will return 1 (however,
it does not mean that any "IO::Async" callbacks were invoked, as there may be other parts of code sharing the Glib main context. Otherwise,
it will return 0.
