  • Multiple rxqueue directs

    From Garry Smithwick@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jan 19 06:46:28 2018
    I know I can use rxqueue to capture output from commands like:

    'wmic logicaldisk get size,freespace,caption ' '|' rxqueue qname

    but how to I capture multiple streams?

    For example, I use wget to pull data from the internet:

    "wget.exe" '"'url'"' parms '-O' '"'file'"' '1>NUL 2>NUL 3>NUL'

    Stream1, stream2, and stream3 all go to NUL so no output. If I wanted to capture all three streams to different rxqueue's, how do I code that?

    It depends on your shell and not all shells are sufficiently capable.
    OTTOMH, on *ix, it's something like

    ( wget ... | rxqueue queue1 & ) 2>&1 rxqueue queue2

    etc. The key is being able to run the rxqueue instances in parallel.
    What might also work is

    { wget ... | rxqueue queue1 & ;} 2>&1 rxqueue queue2

    which uses a few less resources.

    HTH,

    Steven

    Sorry, I do not know what "OTTOMH" is. I am running Object Rexx on Windows 7.

    Off the top of my head, meaning my suggestion is untested and might
    contain syntax errors.

    FWIW, I don't know how to do what you are asking to do from a Windows
    shell. Hopefully someone will be able to guide you.
