checking file existence
Hi,
My requirement was to check the existence of a file having a specified pattern.The way i tried to achieve this was
if [ -f ilvs_trace*.`date +'%m%d'` ]; then
echo "File found"
fi
an example file having this pattern was 'ilvs_trace01.0124'.
it will vary from 01-22,thats why i tried the above one using wildcard.
Would anyone can provide me a solution for this in the way i expects.
Your help is appreciated.

<?php
$fmt = datefmt_create(
'en_US',
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',
IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN,
'MM/dd/yyyy'
);
echo 'pattern of the formatter is : ' . datefmt_get_pattern($fmt);
echo 'First Formatted output with pattern is ' . datefmt_format($fmt, 0);
datefmt_set_pattern($fmt, 'yyyymmdd hh:mm:ss z');

);
echo 'pattern of the formatter is : ' . $fmt->getPattern();

$fmt->setPattern('yyyymmdd hh:mm:ss z');
