Hi ,
I want to list all files like *.C , *.h *.cpp in directory and subdirectory.
Take this each file (only file name should be taken) and pass it as argument to other unix command.
how do it sinlge command line.

Thanks

How about this ?

find /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' | xargs stat

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

Try this.

 find /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' -exec ls -l {} \;

 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 ?

nd /parent/dir/to/search -name '*.[c|cpp|h]' -exec basename {} \; -exec stat {} \;
