java - Doubts with command: pkill -INT -f '^php test_program.php$' -


question: each element of command: 

pkill -int -f '^php test_program.php$'

do when run in linux terminal? know command kills process called test_program.php, don't know different elements of command doing. please explain in simple terminology possible! new linux commands , prefer baby lingo tech lingo @ moment :)

my research: running man pkill in linux terminal, manual appears following pkill definition:

  • signal processs based on name or other attributes.

which leads me believe pkill doesn't kill process, rather can send lot of different signals, 1 of might kill process. structure/synopsis of pkill command displayed as: pkill [option] pattern

from list of options in same manual, -f, -full had following definition:

  • the pattern matched against process name. when -f set, full command line used.

i didn't understand meant. also, there -int before -f in command, leads me believe more 1 option can joined together, -int not displayed in manual.

the other parts of command seem identifying program running: '^php test_program.php$', why isn't part of command 'test_program.php'? ^php @ beginning , $ , end do?

you looking @ regular expression. expression looks string test_program.php anywhere in process name. if process name like

/var/php -runcommand test_program.php

it find process , kill it.

this explains -f, -full option. not using regular expression, have take full process name (the preceeding line) match process.

finally, -int used send runlevel task.

edit

i wrong, -int option not used runlevels (which linux kernel) send signals task. term (terminate), stop (shut down) or cont (continue process). pkill sends default terminate signal process.

the /var/php -runcommand test_program.php example process. if use command ps ax, list of processes , programs execute them. assumed php interpreter resides in /var/php/ , execution of php file command.

scala - 'wrong top statement declaration' when using slick in IntelliJ -

Image
i'm porting project scala 2.9 2.10, therefore have use slick instead of scalaquery. i'm using slick 2.1.0 since supports ms access. according this tutorial , upgrade guide changed robs object class , added val robs : why error message wrong top statement declaration , how rid of it? edit: i'm new scala... according this question seems can't put val outside of methods or classes, right? code above directly in packge. right approach slick then? should move code in class or trait? according this changed val robs = tablequery[robs] to object robs extends tablequery(new robs(_)) {} . no warnings or errors anymore. :)
