Full Discussion: using find in for loop
Operating Systems AIX using find in for loop Post 302231356 by era on Tuesday 2nd of September 2008 07:15:07 AM

It's certainly not impossible to use variables here.

Code:
find "$src" -name "$typ" |
while read i; do
  : ...
done

... nor here:

Code:
for i in $src/$typ $src/*/$typ $src/*/*/$typ; do

(Of course, that doesn't work for arbitrarily deeply nested subdirectories; as indicated before, you have to enumerate each subdirectory level. But if you know e.g. that it always only goes one level deep, this is certainly an option.)

mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16_S16_Sat(3MLIB) 		    mediaLib Library Functions			   mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16_S16_Sat(3MLIB)

NAME

       mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16_S16_Sat, mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16S_S16S_Sat, mlib_SignalEmphasize_F32_F32, mlib_SignalEmphasize_F32S_F32S - signal
       pre-emphasizing

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ]
       #include <mlib.h>

       mlib_status mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16_S16_Sat(mlib_s16 *dst,
	    const mlib_s16 *src, void *filter, mlib_s32 n);

       mlib_status mlib_SignalEmphasize_S16S_S16S_Sat(mlib_s16 *dst,
	    const mlib_s16 *src, void *filter, mlib_s32 n);

       mlib_status mlib_SignalEmphasize_F32_F32(mlib_f32 *dst,
	    const mlib_f32 *src, void *filter, mlib_s32 n);

       mlib_status mlib_SignalEmphasize_F32S_F32S(mlib_f32 *dst,
	    const mlib_f32 *src, void *filter, mlib_s32 n);

DESCRIPTION

       Each of these functions applies the preemphasizer to one signal packet and updates the filter states.

       For monaural signals, the following equation is used:

	 dst[i] = src[i] - alpha*src[i - 1]

       where i = 0, 1, ..., (n - 1); src[-1] = 0.

       For stereo signals, the following equation is used:

	 dst[2*i]     = src[2*i]     - alpha*src[2*(i - 1)]
	 dst[2*i + 1] = src[2*i + 1] - alpha*src[2*(i - 1) + 1]

       where i = 0, 1, ..., (n - 1); src[-2] = src[-1] = 0.

PARAMETERS

       Each of the functions takes the following arguments:

       dst	 Destination signal array.

       src	 Source signal array.

       filter	 Internal filter structure.

       n	 Number of samples in the source signal array.

RETURN VALUES

       Each of the functions returns MLIB_SUCCESS if successful. Otherwise it returns MLIB_FAILURE.
