Java and perl have a join feature that allows the main thread to block until a child thread is finished.
Is there a similar feature in (1) bash and (2) perl that will allow the main process to block until the child process is complete?
Thanks,

As far as I can tell, the bash wait command waits for a logical "AND" of all the child processes.
Assuming I am coding in C:
(1) What is the function I would use to create multiple bash child process running perl?
(2) What is the function I would use to reinvent the bash wait command so I... (4 Replies)
I'm trying to make a program that will spawn multiple child processes then exit. I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this since after I fork, the child process begins running the program again (never ending).
int main(void){
for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
fork();

example sql:
select a.a1,b.b1,c.c1,d.d1,e.e1
from a
left outer join b on a.x=b.x
left outer join c on b.y=c.y
left outer join d on d.z=a.z
inner join a.t=e.t
I know how single outer or inner join works in sql.
But I don't really understand when there are multiple of them.

Hello,
My apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, I have had a look at several threads but I am still confused how to use these functions. I have two files, each with 5 columns:

Hello Everyone:
I have the following code
int main()
{
system("/usr/OtherUser/bin/runX");
return 0;
}
runX must be executed with privileges from another user, how could I do that? I know the password for such user.
Thanks in advance (8 Replies)
Hi,
I have 20 tab delimited text files that have a common column (column 1). The files are named GSM1.txt through GSM20.txt. Each file has 3 columns (2 other columns in addition to the first common column).
I want to write a script to join the files by the first common column so that in the... (5 Replies)

Hi all,
I have a script that runs sftp with expect so I can login and send a file in a cronjob. I've installed this on a couple other servers and it has been fine. However, this time on this machine, it seems to be giving me an issue. It won't move past the spawn sftp command and return a... (3 Replies)
Hi,
I have a script that run every 10 minutes, from a specific timeframe of the day, for example 0500 - 1900.
The script is some sort of checker script for an application log file and check for errors and email us if there is error/s reported in the log.
At the moment, I schedule it... (1 Reply)

ppmtosixel(1) General Commands Manual ppmtosixel(1)NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format
SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC
LJ250 color inkjet printer.
If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table
begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file.
OPTIONS -raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com-
pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni-
tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower.
-margin
If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci-
fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image.
PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?.
BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was
greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the
color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation.
