How to send a string to function containing wild card?
Hey All,
I am trying to send a string as an input parameter to a function which contains a wild card character - *
Quote:
my_function '/path/to/my/dir/file*.out'
However the function is taking it as:
Quote:
my_function '/path/to/my/dir/file1.out /path/to/my/dir/file2.out '/path/to/my/dir/file3.out '
PS: The directory - '/path/to/my/dir/' has 3 files:
file1.out,
file2.out,
file3.out
However I want to disable this wild card behaviour i.e to say I want to literally send '/path/to/my/dir/file*.out' as a string without any wild card expansion.

What I get is MG1A*.sorted
The problem is I am passed a series of files where the first few characters like "MG1A"... (2 Replies)

piv-tool - smart card utility for HSPD-12 PIV cards
SYNOPSIS
piv-tool [OPTIONS]
The piv-tool utility can be used from the command line to perform miscellaneous smart card operations on a HSPD-12 PIV smart card as
defined in NIST 800-73-3. It is intened for use with test cards only. It can be used to load objects, and generate key pairs, as well as
send arbitrary APDU commands to a card after having authenticated to the card using the card key provided by the card vendor.
OPTIONS
--serial
Print the card serial number derived from the CHUID object, if any. Output is in hex byte format.
--name, -n
Print the name of the inserted card (driver)
--admin argument, -A argument
Authenticate to the card using a 2DES or 3DES key. The argument of the form
{A|M}:ref:alg
is required, were A uses "EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION" and M uses "MUTUAL AUTHENTICATION". ref is normally 9B, and alg is 03 for 3DES. The
key is provided by the card vendor, and the environment variable PIV_EXT_AUTH_KEY must point to a text file containing the key in the
format: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
--genkey argument, -G argument
Generate a key pair on the card and output the public key. The argument of th form
ref:alg
is required, where ref is 9A, 9C, 9D or 9E and alg is 06, 07, 11 or 14 for RSA 1024, RSA 2048, ECC 256 or ECC 384 respectively.
--object ContainerID, -O ContainerID
Load an object on to the card. The ContainerID is as defined in NIST 800-73-n without leading 0x. Example: CHUID object is 3000
--cert ref, -s ref
Load a certificate on to the card. ref is 9A, 9C, 9D or 9E
--compresscert ref, -Z ref
Load a certificate that has been gziped on to the card. ref is 9A, 9C, 9D or 9E
--out file, -o file
Output file for any operation that produces output.
--in file, -i file
Input file for any operation that requires an input file.
--key-slots-discovery file
Print properties of the key slots. Needs 'admin' authentication.
--send-apdu apdu, -s apdu
Sends an arbitrary APDU to the card in the format AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF.... This option may be repeated.
--reader num, -r num
Use the given reader number. The default is 0, the first reader in the system.
--card-driver driver, -c driver
Use the given card driver. The default is auto-detected.
--wait, -w
Wait for a card to be inserted
--verbose, -v
Causes piv-tool to be more verbose. Specify this flag several times to enable debug output in the opensc library.
