Tänane küsimuste ja vastuste seanss jõuab meile viisakalt SuperUserini - Stack Exchange'i ja kogukonnapõhiste Q & A veebisaitide rühmitusse.
Küsimus
SuperUseri lugeja lfalin tahab teada, mida Bashi sisestatav käsk teeb:
I know what a builtin command is, but what does builtin itself do? Executing which ls shows me /bin/ls, but executing which builtin returns nothing. man builtin just gives me a list of builtin commands, one of which is builtin. The rest of the man page explains what a builtin command is, but not what builtin itself is. builtin –help tells me builtin: usage: builtin [shell-builtin [arg …], but still not what it does. Is it a part of Bash in a way that other builtin commands are not?
Mida teeb Bashi sisestatud käsk?
Vastus
SuperUseri kaasautor Spiffil on meile vastus:
The builtin command makes sure you run the shell built-in version of the command rather than running another command with the same name.
For example, imagine you defined a shell function named cd to print some extra status every time you change directories, but you messed it up and now you cannot change directories correctly. So now you can type builtin cd ~ to successfully cd back to your home directory without running your broken shell function.
By the way, my copy of the Bash man page has a section called “SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS”, and it defines the meaning of the builtin command in that section (transcribed below).
