I've got a ksh for loop with wildcards specified, and I want the wildcards to be preserved when inside the loop. Instead, it is expanding the wilcards and identifying filenames in the current directory
with these files in the directory
I get this output
How can I stop identifying the files and return the original list values including the *'s, i.e.
Loop value = a*
Loop value = b*
Using a makefile I want to compile all .c files in the current directory without specifying them directly and then link their associated .o files into a library.
How do I do this ?
Thanks. (1 Reply)
I'm trying to delete lines from a large text file using VI.
Every line that I am wanting to delete start with 'S' - all others do not. (A list of users)
I've tried using * but doesn't seem to like it...any ideas...
Doesn't have to be VI - but I'm better with VI than sed/awk. (8 Replies)
Hi All
In a script, I want a user to enter 4 characters, these can be a mix of letters (uppercase and lowercase) and numbers.

eg $var can be A9xZ, 3DDL, bbHp .........etc
I need to check that the user has only entered characters... (2 Replies)

when writing a shell script (bourne) and using a unix command like 'ls' is there anything special you need to do to use a wildcard (like *)? (3 Replies)
ok, I'm trying to write a script file that lists files with specific elements in the name into a txt file, it looks like this

Hi All
Please excuse another straightforward question. When creating a tar archive from a directory I am attempting to use wildcards to eliminate certain filetypes (otherwise the archive gets too large). So I am looking for something along these lines.

These 2 websites do a GREAT job of explaining different types of wildcards. I learned about the categories of characters which I never knew about at all.

Hello:
I have a very basic question. I'd like to select all files except for one file. For example, say I want to move all of the files in my current directory to a subdirectory called archive, I would use mv ./* archive/ But what if I want to move all files except for README.txt? Is there an... (19 Replies)

io::async::detachedcode
IO::Async::DetachedCode(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Async::DetachedCode(3pm)NAME
"IO::Async::DetachedCode" - execute code asynchronously in child processes
SYNOPSIS
This object is used indirectly via the "IO::Async::Loop"'s "detach_code" method.
use IO::Async::Loop;
my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new;
my $code = $loop->detach_code(
code => sub {
my ( $number ) = @_;
return is_prime( $number );
}
);
$code->call(
args => [ 123454321 ],
on_return => sub {
my $isprime = shift;
print "123454321 " . ( $isprime ? "is" : "is not" ) . " a prime number
";
},
on_error => sub {
print STDERR "Cannot determine if it's prime - $_[0]
";
},
);
$loop->run;
DESCRIPTION
This object class provides a legacy compatibility layer for existing code that tries to construct such an object. It should not be used for
new code; see instead the IO::Async::Function object, for which this is now a wrapper.
CONSTRUCTOR
$code = $loop->detach_code( %params )
This function returns a new instance of a "IO::Async::DetachedCode" object. The %params hash takes the following keys:
code => CODE
A block of code to call in the child process.
stream
marshaller
These arguments are no longer used; any values passed will be ignored.
workers => INT
Optional integer, specifies the number of parallel workers to create.
If not supplied, 1 is used.
exit_on_die => BOOL
setup => ARRAY
Passed through to the underlying "IO::Async::Function" object.
METHODS
$code->call( %params )
Calls one invocation of the contained function code block. See the "call" method on "IO::Async::Function" for more detail.
$code->shutdown
This method requests that the detached worker processes stop running.
$n_workers = $code->workers
This method in scalar context returns the number of workers currently running.
@worker_pids = $code->workers
This method in list context returns a list of the PID numbers of all the currently running worker processes.
