Hi I tried to assign the array as you suggested
could able to assign but could not read them out of the loop
I was trying to do this instead
myfile has this data
molly
mic
typeset -i cnt=0
while read line
do
my_user_id[$cnt]=$line
((cnt = cnt + 1))
done < myfile
select linefromfile in ${my_user_id[@]}
do
echo $linefromfile
done
when I looked at the output I am getting
1)molly
2)mic
#?
why am I getting the #? at the end of the output
it's an error I guess and it's stopping the rest of the program to work
can any body explain why am I getting #? and how to get rid of it?
Thanks
Pinky

pcap_dispatch
PCAP_LOOP(3PCAP) PCAP_LOOP(3PCAP)
NAME
pcap_loop, pcap_dispatch - process packets from a live capture or savefile
SYNOPSIS
#include <pcap/pcap.h>
typedef void (*pcap_handler)(u_char *user, const struct pcap_pkthdr *h,
const u_char *bytes);
int pcap_loop(pcap_t *p, int cnt,
pcap_handler callback, u_char *user);
int pcap_dispatch(pcap_t *p, int cnt,
pcap_handler callback, u_char *user);
DESCRIPTION
pcap_loop() processes packets from a live capture or ``savefile'' until cnt packets are processed, the end of the ``savefile'' is reached
when reading from a ``savefile'', pcap_breakloop() is called, or an error occurs. It does not return when live read timeouts occur. A
value of -1 or 0 for cnt is equivalent to infinity, so that packets are processed until another ending condition occurs.
pcap_dispatch() processes packets from a live capture or ``savefile'' until cnt packets are processed, the end of the current bufferful of
packets is reached when doing a live capture, the end of the ``savefile'' is reached when reading from a ``savefile'', pcap_breakloop() is
called, or an error occurs. Thus, when doing a live capture, cnt is the maximum number of packets to process before returning, but is not
a minimum number; when reading a live capture, only one bufferful of packets is read at a time, so fewer than cnt packets may be processed.
A value of -1 or 0 for cnt causes all the packets received in one buffer to be processed when reading a live capture, and causes all the
packets in the file to be processed when reading a ``savefile''.
(In older versions of libpcap, the behavior when cnt was 0 was undefined; different platforms and devices behaved differently, so code that
must work with older versions of libpcap should use -1, nor 0, as the value of cnt.)
callback specifies a pcap_handler routine to be called with three arguments: a u_char pointer which is passed in the user argument to
pcap_loop() or pcap_dispatch(), a const struct pcap_pkthdr pointer pointing to the packet time stamp and lengths, and a const u_char
pointer to the first caplen (as given in the struct pcap_pkthdr a pointer to which is passed to the callback routine) bytes of data from
the packet. The struct pcap_pkthdr and the packet data are not to be freed by the callback routine, and are not guaranteed to be valid
after the callback routine returns; if the code needs them to be valid after the callback, it must make a copy of them.
RETURN VALUE
pcap_loop() returns 0 if cnt is exhausted, -1 if an error occurs, or -2 if the loop terminated due to a call to pcap_breakloop() before any
packets were processed. It does not return when live read timeouts occur; instead, it attempts to read more packets.
pcap_dispatch() returns the number of packets processed on success; this can be 0 if no packets were read from a live capture (if, for
example, they were discarded because they didn't pass the packet filter, or if, on platforms that support a read timeout that starts before
any packets arrive, the timeout expires before any packets arrive, or if the file descriptor for the capture device is in non-blocking mode
and no packets were available to be read) or if no more packets are available in a ``savefile.'' It returns -1 if an error occurs or -2 if
the loop terminated due to a call to pcap_breakloop() before any packets were processed. If your application uses pcap_breakloop(), make
sure that you explicitly check for -1 and -2, rather than just checking for a return value < 0.
If -1 is returned, pcap_geterr() or pcap_perror() may be called with p as an argument to fetch or display the error text.
