hi,
Above command list all files , but all output is passed as one argument to command. and also output has full path of file. I want only filename and comand should be executed on each filename. Thanks |

If you need only the filename on each of the find result, use basename for each result that is thrown. Code:
find /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' -exec basename {} \;

Hi ,
Following comand (as you mentioned) gave me correct file name . I want to pipe that filename to other unix command. find /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' -exec basename {} \; Thank for your interest. |

What unix command are you planning to use at the end of the pipe-line ?
Code:
nd /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' -exec basename {} \; -exec stat {} \;
I am not sure, whether two exec is very advisable to use. Vino |

Hi ,
I also tried with same thing. but using second time -exec command does not take output of basename , it takes again output of find command (i,e full path name). Any how I am using my customised "cvs checkout " which takes only one filename at a time. Thanking you, |
