My Script which i am using:
Code:
cd /var/opt/input
filecount=$(find . -type f -name *.csv | xargs wc -l)
if [ $filecount -gt 0 ]
then
echo "Number of Files are $filenumber"
else
echo "No Files"
fi

When the Input locations has huge number of files it is giving error saying
HTML Code:
/usr/bin/find: arg list too long

NAME
wml::all - WML Include Files Of All Categories SYNOPSIS
#use wml::all DESCRIPTION
This includes all existing standard WML include files of all categories. Use it only when you are a really lazy webmaster which just wants all features WML can provide ;-) It is always better to include one of the "wml::xxx::all" include files. The following categories currently exists: Standard (std) Here you can find all standard tagsets which everybody usually uses all the time. Webdesign (des) These are tagsets which help webdesigners of the 3rd generation fighting against the puristic plain HTML. Use with care. Formatting (fmt) Here you can find formatting environments, i.e. usually container tags which do special formatting. Import (imp) Here you can find import tags, i.e. usually tags which import external data and converts them to HTML. Support (sup) Some support stuff which is used in other include files. System (sys) All system related stuff. User (usr) The user specific include files. Should be extended by the webmaster for his users. AUTHOR
