Hi.
As the 'short' message header sugests this might be called off topic, and
I might be flamed for not calling it so.
Anyway, I'm having a problem concerning the use of the shell < and >
redirection commands, as I'm trying to set the autrun script up to be
able to shoort off GDB in a 'automatic' mode with a scriptfile.
The problem is concerned with the fact that GDB sends it's output (plus
the output it gets from the mud) to the tty/console/std. output.
The original command looks like (without $FLAG and $PORT stuff):
bin/Circle >>& syslog
Now I'm firering gdb up, to load bin/Circle and then execute away driven
by a small 'scriptfile' with the run command and some stuff I want to
knwo when the mud exits in a file called gdb.script.
I tried the following two methods of redirection:
gdb bin/Circle < gdb.script > syslog
and
gdb bin/Circle > syslog < gdb.script
both execute (fire up gdb, and run the script), but both versions SPAM
the tty/std. output instead of placing the output into a file (the syslog).
does anyone know how to make it work right ? I mean I beleave there must
be a solution in a SHELL kind of way, instead of redifining circle to
write to a sdandard logfile instead of the std. output..
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Any people who want to know the solution, if I get/find one can send me a
little letter telling so (PRIVATELY to rr@cbs.dk, don't spam the list, or
I'll just be semiflamed for making loads of off topic stuff, that doesnt
seem off topic to me.. )
Regards,
Con.
