Operating Systems Solaris Checking a file on a remote windows server Post 302298845 by TonyFullerMalv on Wednesday 18th of March 2009 06:19:14 PM

The $? at the Solaris box end is capturing the successful run of the ssh command.

You could try:
$ ssh user@windowsbox "test -f filelocation; echo $?" > resultfile
and then look in resultfile and for a 0 or non-zero character?

or you could try:
$ ssh user@windowsbox "ls filelocation" > resultfile 2>&1

and the check the contents of resultfile for the "No such file or directory" message, e.g.

if [ -z "`grep "No such file or directory" resultfile`" ]; then
echo "File exists."
else
echo "File does not exist."
fi

XUnmapWindow(3X11)						     MIT X11R4							XUnmapWindow(3X11)

Name
       XUnmapWindow, XUnmapSubwindows - unmap windows

Syntax
       XUnmapWindow(display, w)
	  Display *display;
	  Window w;

       XUnmapSubwindows(display, w)
	  Display *display;
	  Window w;

Arguments
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       w	 Specifies the window.

Description
       The function unmaps the specified window and causes the X server to generate an event.  If the specified window is already unmapped, has no
       effect.	Normal exposure processing on formerly obscured windows is performed.  Any child window will no longer be visible until another
       map call is made on the parent.	In other words, the subwindows are still mapped but are not visible until the parent is mapped.  Unmapping
       a window will generate events on windows that were formerly obscured by it.

       can generate a error.

       The function unmaps all subwindows for the specified window in bottom-to-top stacking order.  It causes the X server to generate an event
       on each subwindow and events on formerly obscured windows.  Using this function is much more efficient than unmapping multiple windows one
       at a time because the server needs to perform much of the work only once, for all of the windows, rather than for each window.

       can generate a error.

Diagnostics
       A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
