Summary |
0001859: Processing order for find's path operands |
|
Description |
XCU 1.4 "Utility Description Defaults" says under OPERANDS:Unless otherwise stated, the standard utilities that accept operands shall process those operands in the order specified in the command line.
It is not clear how this applies to the find utility, which has two different types of operand and describes some of them being processed in a non-default way (as an expression). An explicit statement should be added about the processing order for operands of the other type (the path operands).
|
|
Desired Action |
On page 2941 line 98187 section find, after:Each path operand is a pathname of a starting point in the file hierarchy. append a sentence:The path operands shall be processed in the order specified in the command line.
