How to scan a file for literal, return 0 or 1 if found?
How can i scan a file in a UNIX script and look for a particular keyword?
For example if i wanted to scan the file "lpcmp165.out" and see if it contains the term "error" or "ERROR" and then return a 0 or 1 or some indicator as such?
Detail example:
sqlplus -s xx/yyyyyyy#@zzz <<EOF > lpcmp165.out
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
set serveroutput on
DROP INDEX PKM_TCQ_DT_TPD_LOAN_EXLOAN_ID;
commit;
exit;
EOF
if [ lpcmp165.out contains "error" ] ; then <<<<< psuedo code
echo "bad result"
else
echo "good result"
fi
lpcmp165.out contains this output:
DROP INDEX xPKM_TCQ_DT_TPD_LOAN_EXLOAN_ID
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01418: specified index does not exist
