Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers awk - Rename output file, after processing, same as input file Post 302933641 by High-T on Sunday 1st of February 2015 02:20:33 AM

Yes i got the correct output
But no error message is displayed.
It doesnot work at all.
To my understanding, it is reading and writing to the file in the same time.
Is it possible if I can put a time interval, lets say, 2 seconds between Script and mv command?

Actually this is just an example of the input.
Actual input file has about 10,000 records.
If I can put a time interval I beleieve it would resolve my issue.

UALARM(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						 UALARM(3)

NAME
ualarm -- schedule signal after specified time LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h> useconds_t ualarm(useconds_t useconds, useconds_t interval); DESCRIPTION
This is a simplified interface to setitimer(2). The ualarm() function waits a count of useconds before asserting the terminating signal SIGALRM. System activity or time used in processing the call may cause a slight delay. If the interval argument is non-zero, the SIGALRM signal will be sent to the process every interval microseconds after the timer expires (e.g., after useconds number of microseconds have passed). Due to a setitimer(2) restriction, the maximum number of useconds and interval is limited to 100,000,000,000,000 (in case this value fits in the unsigned integer). RETURN VALUES
When the signal has successfully been caught, ualarm() returns the amount of time left on the clock. NOTES
A microsecond is 0.000001 seconds. SEE ALSO
getitimer(2), setitimer(2), sigpause(2), sigvec(2), alarm(3), signal(3), sleep(3), usleep(3) HISTORY
The ualarm() function appeared in 4.3BSD. BSD
April 19, 1994 BSD
