NAME
val - validate SCCS files (DEVELOPMENT)
SYNOPSIS
val -
val [-s][-mname][-rSID][-ytype]file...
DESCRIPTION
The val utility shall determine whether the specified file
is an SCCS file meeting the characteristics specified
by the options.
OPTIONS
The val utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume
of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines,
except that the usage of the '-'
operand is not strictly as intended by the guidelines (that is, reading
options and operands from standard input).
The following options shall be supported:
-m name
Specify a name, which is compared with the SCCS %M% keyword
in file; see get
.
-r SID
Specify a SID (SCCS Identification String), an SCCS delta number.
A check shall be made to determine whether the
SID is ambiguous (for example, -r 1 is ambiguous because
it physically does not exist but implies 1.1, 1.2, and
so on, which may exist) or invalid (for example, -r 1.0 or
-r 1.1.0 are invalid because neither case can
exist as a valid delta number). If the SID is valid and not
ambiguous, a check shall be made to determine whether it
actually exists.
-s
Silence the diagnostic message normally written to standard output
for any error that is detected while processing each named
file on a given command line.
-y type
Specify a type, which shall be compared with the SCCS %Y%
keyword in file; see get .
OPERANDS
The following operands shall be supported:
file
A pathname of an existing SCCS file. If exactly one file operand
appears, and it is '-' , the standard input
shall be read: each line shall be independently processed as if it
were a command line argument list. (However, the line is not
subjected to any of the shell word expansions, such as parameter expansion
or quote removal.)
STDIN
The standard input shall be a text file used only when the file
operand is specified as '-' .
INPUT FILES
Any SCCS files processed shall be files of an unspecified format.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
val:
LANG
Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that
are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of
IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables
for
the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine
the values of locale categories.)
LC_ALL
If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the
other internationalization variables.
LC_CTYPE
Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes
of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as
opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input files).
LC_MESSAGES
Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and
contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error,
and informative messages written to standard output.
NLSPATH
Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of LC_MESSAGES
.
ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
Default.
STDOUT
The standard output shall consist of informative messages about either:
Each file processed
Each command line read from standard input
If the standard input is not used, for each file operand yielding
a discrepancy, the output line shall have the following
format:
"%s: %s\n", <pathname>, <unspecified string>
If standard input is used, a line of input shall be written before
each of the preceding lines for files containing
discrepancies:
"%s:\n", <input line>
STDERR
Not used.
OUTPUT FILES
None.
EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
None.
EXIT STATUS
The 8-bit code returned by val shall be a disjunction of the
possible errors; that is, it can be interpreted as a bit
string where set bits are interpreted as follows:
0x80
=
Missing file argument.
0x40
=
Unknown or duplicate option.
0x20
=
Corrupted SCCS file.
0x10
=
Cannot open file or file not SCCS.
0x08
=
SID is invalid or ambiguous.
0x04
=
SID does not exist.
0x02
=
%Y%, -y mismatch.
0x01
=
%M%, -m mismatch.
Note that val can process two or more files on a given command
line and can process multiple command lines (when reading
the standard input). In these cases an aggregate code shall be returned:
a logical OR of the codes generated for each command line
and file processed.
CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
Default.
The following sections are informative.
APPLICATION USAGE
Since the val exit status sets the 0x80 bit, shell applications
checking "$?" cannot tell if it terminated due
to a missing file argument or receipt of a signal.
EXAMPLES
In a directory with three SCCS files- s.x (of t type "text"),
s.y, and s.z (a corrupted file)-the
following command could produce the output shown:
