i am running my application in linux by providing inputs as command line. My input field contain an argument which contains ";"(semicolon) internally.(For example:123;434;5464). This will be parsed using UTF8String encode and send. But when i am using like this, in initial itself i am getting,
bash: 434: command not found bash: 5464: command not found And when i capture traffic the output contains only 123 instead 123;434;5464 But if i give without semicolon (Ex:123:434:5464),not getting any problem output coming properly as 123:434:5464
Point me how to give command line input by using semicolon as to come output. Is there any particular syntax to use while doing with semicolon. I am running like below
./runASR.sh -ip 10.78.242.4 -port 3868 -sce 10.78.241.206 -id 85;167838865;1385433280 where -id field contain that value with issue.
234
Semi-colons and newlines separate synchronous commands from each other. Use a semi-colon or a new line to end a command and begin a new one. The first command will be executed synchronously, which means that Bash will wait for it to end before running the next command.
It is used when a command is needed, as in the then condition of an if command, but nothing is to be done by the command.
BASICS. Syntax for this manual. Remember the UNIX/LINUX command line is case sensitive! "$" indicates start of command. "#" indicates end of command and start of comment.
A command line can consist of multiple commands. Each command is separated by a semicolon, and the command line is terminated with a newline. The exit status is that of the last command in the chain of commands. Output from the date command will be redirected to the whoandwhen file.
; is treated an end of command character. So 123;456;5464 to bash is in fact 3 commands. To pass such meta-characters escape it with escape character \.
./command 123\;456\;5464 Or Just quote it with single quote (double quote evaluates the inner string) (Thanks Triplee, I forgot to mention this)
./command '123;456;5464' If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
