can you redirect STDIN with command arguments?
I have tried this approach:
# ./script -option <argument1> <argument2> 0<$2
# $2: ambiguous redirect
Is this possible? (4 Replies)
Hi,
Program A: uses pipe()
I am able to read the stdout of PROGAM B (stdout got through system() command) into PROGRAM A using:
* child
-> dup2(fd, STDOUT_FILENO);
-> execl("/path/PROGRAM B", "PROGRAM B", NULL);
* parent
-> char line;
-> read(fd, line, 100);

Hi all
I've run into a snag in a program of mine where part of what I entered in at the start of run-time, instead of the current value within printf() is being printed out.
After failing with fflush() and setbuf(), I tried the following approach
void BufferFlusher()

Hi,
I am working on a project where I have to generate and execute nasm code on-the-fly. I generate the code in a file program.asm and then execute it.This output is to stdout which i redirect to an output file which i read back to compare results:

All,
Ok...so I know I *should* be able to control a process's stdin and stdout from the parent by creating pipes and then dup'ing them in the child. And, this works with all "normal" programs that I've tried. Unfortunately, I want to intercept the stdin/out of the scp application and it seems... (9 Replies)
Hi,
i am using the below program to read from the standard input or to write to standard out put.
i know that using highlevel functions this can be done better than what i have done here.
i just want to know is there any other method by which i find the exact number of characters ( this... (3 Replies)
I want to differentiate the STDOUT and STDERR messages in my terminal .
If a script or command is printing a message in terminal I want to differentiate by colors,
Is it possible ?
Example:

bash: datee: command not found

Well.. let's say i need to write a pretty simple script.
In my script i have 2 variables which can have value of 0 or 1.
$VERBOSE
$LOG
I need to implement these cases:
($VERBOSE = 0 && $LOG = 0) => ONLY ERROR output (STDERR to console && STDOUT to /dev/null)
($VERBOSE = 1... (5 Replies)

tee
TEE(2) Linux Programmer's Manual TEE(2)NAME
tee - duplicating pipe content
SYNOPSIS
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <fcntl.h>
ssize_t tee(int fd_in, int fd_out, size_t len, unsigned int flags);
DESCRIPTION
tee() duplicates up to len bytes of data from the pipe referred to by the file descriptor fd_in to the pipe referred to by the file
descriptor fd_out. It does not consume the data that is duplicated from fd_in; therefore, that data can be copied by a subsequent
splice(2).
flags is a series of modifier flags, which share the name space with splice(2) and vmsplice(2):
SPLICE_F_MOVE Currently has no effect for tee(); see splice(2).
SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK Do not block on I/O; see splice(2) for further details.
SPLICE_F_MORE Currently has no effect for tee(), but may be implemented in the future; see splice(2).
SPLICE_F_GIFT Unused for tee(); see vmsplice(2).
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, tee() returns the number of bytes that were duplicated between the input and output. A return value of 0 means
that there was no data to transfer, and it would not make sense to block, because there are no writers connected to the write end of the
pipe referred to by fd_in.
On error, tee() returns -1 and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
EINVAL fd_in or fd_out does not refer to a pipe; or fd_in and fd_out refer to the same pipe.
ENOMEM Out of memory.
VERSIONS
The tee() system call first appeared in Linux 2.6.17; library support was added to glibc in version 2.5.
CONFORMING TO
This system call is Linux-specific.
NOTES
Conceptually, tee() copies the data between the two pipes. In reality no real data copying takes place though: under the covers, tee()
assigns data in the output by merely grabbing a reference to the input.
EXAMPLE
The following example implements a basic tee(1) program using the tee() system call.
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <limits.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd;
int len, slen;
if (argc != 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <file>
", argv[0]);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
fd = open(argv[1], O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0644);
if (fd == -1) {
perror("open");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
do {
/*
* tee stdin to stdout.
*/
len = tee(STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO,
INT_MAX, SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK);
if (len < 0) {
if (errno == EAGAIN)
continue;
perror("tee");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
} else
if (len == 0)
break;
/*
* Consume stdin by splicing it to a file.
*/
while (len > 0) {
slen = splice(STDIN_FILENO, NULL, fd, NULL,
len, SPLICE_F_MOVE);
if (slen < 0) {
perror("splice");
break;
}
len -= slen;
}
} while (1);
close(fd);
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
