Regarding command substitution:
either use `command` or $(command). You shouldn't nest them.
The function simply prints to stdout.
Example: ---------- Post updated at 03:57 PM ---------- Previous update was at 03:45 PM ----------
Global variables have the disadvantage that the calling code nust know the variables in the function.
Example:
Can I create a function to return non-interger value in shell script?
for example,
function getcommand ()
{
echo "read command"
read command
echo $command
}
command=$(getcommand)
I tried to do something as above. The statement echo "read command" does not show up.

Is there a command where I can pipe my grep into it and it will output it with spaces rather than returns?
Example
I want to turn
prompt$ grep blah file
blah
blah
into this
prompt$ grep blah file | someCommand

Hi
I have a small function which returns a wrong value.
The function tries to make a connection to oracle database and tries to get the open_mode of the database in the variable status.
However when a database is down the value of the status column is set to READWRITE i am not sure why.

The file is 4155402 in size and is named in this way:

This is a C program; dlsym does find other defined functions and... (2 Replies)

I'm having a little trouble returning a value from a function or calling it, I'm not quite sure.

This returns 0 even when it does not delete any files.
Is it because -print returns 0?

Locale::Codes::LangExt(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Locale::Codes::LangExt(3pm)NAME
Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification
SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangExt;
$lext = code2langext('acm'); # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic'
$code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm'
@codes = all_langext_codes();
@names = all_langext_names();
DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in
the IANA language registry.
Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language
registry codes will be used.
SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. A code set may be specified using either a name, or
a constant that is automatically exported by this module.
For example, the two are equivalent:
$lext = code2langext('acm','alpha');
$lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA);
The codesets currently supported are:
alpha
This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic.
This is the default code set.
ROUTINES
code2langext ( CODE [,CODESET] )
langext2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
langext_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
all_langext_codes ( [CODESET] )
all_langext_names ( [CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext ( CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_alias ( NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] )
These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
