How to use "do shell script" when Terminal replies with a prompt?
Hey all,
I'm wondering how to properly use "do shell script" when Terminal replies with a question? In this example, I'm building a small tool in AppleScript that will auto-update the Android SDK via command line prompts. The problem is when I tell it to update all ("update sdk --no-ui"), I need to accept licence agreements before it continues, and the amount of licence agreements brought up is different every time.
So, basically, I'm wondering how to handle a case where "do shell script" encounters a case where Terminal would normally need a user's response to?
Thanks,
Behn
If it is variable number of prompts that is a problem. Look around hd and figure out how many prompts there will be. Ask around android forum for a bash solution. There are some test case apps that will let you put conditionals on output from running programs.
# traditional way. Pipe output to command.
do script "echo 'ok' | update sdk --no-u"
Here is the preferred way of getting administrator privileges.
It is easier to diagnose problems with debug information. I suggest adding log statements to your script to see what is going on. Here is an example.
Author: rccharles
For testing, run in the Script Editor.
1) Click on the Event Log tab to see the output from the log statement
2) Click on Run
For running shell commands see:
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html
on run
-- Write a message into the event log.
log " --- Starting on " & ((current date) as string) & " --- "
-- debug lines
set unixDesktopPath to POSIX path of "/System/Library/User Template/"
log "unixDesktopPath = " & unixDesktopPath
set quotedUnixDesktopPath to quoted form of unixDesktopPath
log "quoted form is " & quotedUnixDesktopPath
try
set fromUnix to do shell script "sudo ls -l " & quotedUnixDesktopPath with administrator privileges
display dialog "ls -l of " & quotedUnixDesktopPath & return & fromUnix
on error errMsg
log "ls -l error..." & errMsg
end try
end run

Using Power shell script how to hidden SharePoint existing features.
Hi Firends,
Using Power shell script how to hidden SharePoint existing features.
Please help me.
Thanks,

TiruThe Hidden property is set within the solution, so you would need access to the source code in order to set it.

How to call a shell script from a java code
Hello can any one suggest me how to call a shell script from a java program that takes three parameters.
i have a shell script (msp_restore_gui) when i run this script in the command line in a RHEL5 ,SUSE10 and Debian machine it works fine .I even tested to call it from a java program and it also worked fine but when i used the same in a J2ee application where the user when clicks the restore button in a webserver this inturn sends the request to a java file named BackupManager.java where i call the shell script.But here it fails.Waiting for your suggestions.If you want i can put the code also hereyes the script is in /usr/local/mss/tools/backup and the script (msp_restore_gui) is as follows

How do you pass shell scripts with cocoa?
How do you pass shell scripts with cocoa?
You asked for more detail -- I don't know if this is what you were referring to or not, but here's a little more detail on how to use the system() function if that's what you wanted to know.
As etresoft mentioned, the system() function can be useful for the kind of thing you are talking about. You will need to write the following statement at the top of your code if you want to use it:
#include <stdlib.h>
To use the system() function, simply put the command as you would write it in the Terminal between double quotes between the parenthesis. For example, something as simple as:
system("ls");
I don't what the practical use of the above statement would be, but it will run, and that's the general format for the system() function. So just put between the quotes whatever command you want to send.
Hope there was something helpful here. -
How to call a shell script via ODI
Hi,
I need suggestion on following issues:
1) How to call a shell script via ODI?.. I tried using OSCommand utility .inspite of the execution being successful the data is not written into the new file in the desired format. After processing new file is created in the mentioned location but its empty.
2) I'm calling a procedure in ODI to load data into my fact. But once the fact gets loaded i want to update the log details (num of rows processed,num of rows inserted,num of rows rejected etc) in my log table. I'm planning to use a proc for updating but need to know from where can i find these details. Is there a table in work rep which gives me these info like how we get if we execute an interface.?
Please help me out.. Its urgent
Regards
SurabhiHello,
Question 1 appears a little vague, please elaborate. If you're looking to capture a return value from the command execution, you will need to pipe the return value to a file, then read from there.
The execution information is stored in the SNP_STEP_LOG table in the Work Repository. You will need to do a series of joins to retrieve the exact table that was updated. Good luck with this... -

How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes Scripts ?
<br />Hi all,<br /><br /> How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes 7 Scripts ?<br /><br /> <br /><br />Thank's <br />
Hi,
we are using Lotus Notes and Crystal Reports for preview and printing reports from our Lotus Notes Applications. We use the RDC object model. For previewing the reports we export them in an pdf-file and then start the PDF Reader to show the Preview. This works fine.
But with Crystal Reports > 11 the RDC Object Model is no longer supportet, so we look for another way to preview and print our reports.
I try to preview a report build with crystal report XI release 2 in my thick client (Lotus Notes) using java reporting component JRC, this report uses an native xml file as datasource. If the datasource is saved with the report everything works fine, but otherwise I have the following error:
JRCAgent1 detected an exception: javax.xml.namespace.QName: method getPrefix()Ljava/lang/String; not found
I also tried the .jars from Crystal4Eclipse. Doesn't work. When I use Eclipse to view the report everything works fine. The class QName exitsts in the jaxrpc.jar and in the xbean.jar, but only in the xbean.jar a Methode getPrefix exists.
This is what we tried:
Works fine with RDC. Doesn't work with JRC until now.
Did this help you ?
Perhaps you con help me with the JRC, because I'm a java newbee so any ideas could be helpful.

How to execute unix shell script in webdynpro?
hi all,
We have some iquirement of executing script in unix.If anyone know How to execute unix shell script in webdynpro?
best regard
reefishRee,
1. Find SSH client for windows, then execute SSH with Runtime.exec() on local host with arguments like remote host, auth, command to execute etc.
2. Get SSH client in Java and execute SSH commands on remote host using pure Java API.
Don't ask me for links, Google works today, I checked this

How to write a shell script to execute a procedure with out parameter
Hi,
How to write a shell script to execute a procedure with out parameter.
here is my procedure
PROCEDURE sample(invar1 VARCHAR2,
invar2 VARCHAR2,
invar3 VARCHAR2,
invar4 VARCHAR2,
ecode out number);
Any example really helpfull
Thanks in advanceOr if we're passing values in, maybe something like:
Test procedure:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p (myin IN VARCHAR2, myout OUT VARCHAR2)
AS
BEGIN
myout :=
CASE myin
WHEN 'A' THEN 'APPLE'
WHEN 'B' THEN 'BANANA'
ELSE 'STARFRUIT'
END;
END;Shell script:
#!/bin/bash
my_shell_variable=$1
unset ORACLE_PATH
sqlplus -s un/pw@db <<-EOF
set feedback off pause off
set pagesize 0
set autoprint off
VAR out varchar2(30)
VAR myin varchar2(30)
exec :myin := '${my_shell_variable}'
BEGIN
p(:myin, :out);
END;
print out
exit
EOFTest:
/Users/williamr: xx A
APPLE
/Users/williamr: xx B
BANANA
/Users/williamr: xx
STARFRUITObviously in a real script you would not hardcode the password or let it show in a "ps" listing.

How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's?
How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's for Asset Tagging.
It seems Smartcard used for ID cards have a small RF ID, can I use this for Asset Tagging?
Thanks in AdvanceThere are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.
