Re: Search in specific file type

[Shigio YAMAGUCHI]

Hi,

You can do it using the following command line:

$ global -P '\.cpp$' | global -L- -gx foo

This command line searches 'foo' in cpp files.

1. "global -P <pattern>" makes a find(1) like file list.

2. "global -L- -g" read a file list from standard input

   instead of arguments and grep them.

Hi Global Team,

I would like to know whether there is an option to grep in specific file type.

"global -g[aEGilMnoOqtvVx][-L file-list][-S dir][-e] pattern [files]"

can be used to grep for pattren in [files].

But I would like to use global -g on specific file types for e.g *.cpp files.

Is there any option/way to filter out this?

Thanks & Regards,

Akshay
