Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to run scripts parallely inside shell script? Post 302920972 by sea on Tuesday 14th of October 2014 03:26:52 AM

The capture whether the script is running or not - is easy, at least when compared to the challenge transporting the exit value out of the subshell to that this handler script knows it, which script has exited with which exit code.

I would have a solution for this at hand, but I'm afraid it works only with 1 background process at a time (that is pseudo-copied to below example).

Either way, it forces you to send a more complex command in the background process, adapt to all 3 files.
Code:
( ./script1 ; printf $? > ./script1_ret  )

Then catch the result of those ./script[1-3]_ret files within a loop, and it should be fine.

Hope this helps

EDIT:
Just for the challenge I've written a script, but not going to post until TO has posted his efforts.

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
