Code checking for all values in the same if statement.
I am trying to set up a variable based on the name of the file.
Code:
function script_name {
if [ $1='pms.upload.log' ]
then
job_name='MONITOR'
return job_name;
elsif [ $1='pms.download.log'
then
job_name='REJECT'
return job_name
elif [ $1='pms.pre.mon.log' ]
then
job_name='VERSION'
return job_name
fi
}
for i in `ls *log`
do
script_name $i
done.
For some reason the conditon in 1st if condition is being evaluated to true all the times.
I'm using the following in my script.
if echo $cpuidle |/usr/bin/egrep ; then
when I issue this statement it issues the value of the variable back to stdout which ends up in my output file.
Is there a better way to write this?

`mkdir log 2>/dev/null`;
if($? == 0 || $? == errorCodeForFileExists)
{ everyting is fine }
else

Today I spent longer than I'd like to admit figuring out how to write a Bourne shell IF statement that tests a FLOAT value before executing a block of statements. Here's the solution I found, which invokes bc. Hope this will come in handy for someone:

I have a short line of code that checks very rudimentary for duplicate code:
sort myfile.cpp | uniq -c | grep -v "^.*1 " | grep -v "}"
It sorts the file, counts occurrences of each line, removes single occurrences and removes the ubiquitous closing brace. The language is C++, but is easily... (3 Replies)
