gffindxmlattr

GFFINDXMLATTR(1)														  GFFINDXMLATTR(1)

NAME

       gffindxmlattr - Find XML extended attributes by XPath query

SYNOPSIS

       gffindxmlattr [ -d depth ] [ -F delim ] [ XPath | -f XPath-file ] path

DESCRIPTION

       gffindxmlattr  finds  XML  extended  attributes by a specified XPath expression, and displays path names and the corresponding XML extended
       attribute names.  When a file is specified, XML extended attributes associated to the file are searched if there is the read permission.

       When a directory is specified, files or directories within the depth are recursively searched.  When 0 is  specified  for  the  depth,  the
       specified  directory is searched.  If the depth is not specified, all files and directories under the specified directory are searched.	If
       the negative value is specified, gffindxmlattr returns error.  Directories that do not have execute permission cannot be searched.

       gffindxmlattr displays path names and the corresponding XML extended attribute separated by the delim.

OPTIONS

       -d depth
	      specifies the depth to be searched recursively.

       -F delim
	      specifies a delimiter that separates the path name and the XML extended attribute name.  By detault, the delimiter is TAB.

       -f XPath-file
	      specifies a file that contains XPath expression.
