How to associate /opt/local/bin/bash with .bat files
Can someone point me to the docs that describe how to associate Mac files (like .bat) with the MacPorts version of bash. Thanks! ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Macs (and other Unix systems) don't associate files and their interpreters based on the filename extension. Only windows uses this method. Instead, a method called the shebang is used for script files. The first line in the file you're trying to execute should be in the form of #!/path/to/the/binary/which/should/be/used/to/run/this/script Editing your script and making the first line #!/opt/local/bin/bash should cause MacPorts bash to be used to execute the script. Another common method is using /usr/bin/env, which in turn uses $PATH to determine which binary to use: #!/usr/bin/env bash Note that .bat scripts are usually written for windows shell and will not work with bash on OS X (but you'll probably notice that, if your script doesn't work).

Seems that as of 10.6 they're ignored in favor of Uniform Type Identifiers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creator_code I'm fairly sure that the current mix of UTI and extension mapping is a mess though. At least, it seemed to be the last time I looked into it. That's another thread though. These days, if you Get Info on a file (select the file in the Finder and use Command-I or File Get Info) there is a section labeled Open With. You can select an application from the list or explicitly browse to some other application. When changing the selection, there's a button to Change All. Pressing that will prompt to associate all files with extension '.bat' with the new application. Some extensions are associated with known types, and some files are marked with UTIs, and will instead ask if you want to associate, for example, all text files instead of listing .txt. In your case though, you wouldn't want to associate a .bat or .sh file with bash, you'd want to set it to be opened by Terminal.app. You can then edit the shebang line to set which shell should be used to interpret the script, as indicated by Clemens. -- arno s hautala/-| a...@alum.wpi.edu pgp b2c9d448 ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
Re: How to associate /opt/local/bin/bash with .bat files
If you've installed Parallels, .bat files are associated by default with Notepad.app (in the the Windows system). There might be some way to associate them with Windows Console, but I don't know. The “Default Apps” system preference pane might be a good place to start (google it). The other thing worth mentioning is to not to forget to set the execute bit on your scripts. By the way, I personally believe that MacOS's use of file suffixes to define the type of a file is one of its most embarrassing and annoying attributes.

Which SOAP?
Hi folks, I need to install SOAP on a 10.8.5/Apache2.x/PHP 5.3.x machine, and I have no idea which of the variants to install. It's for a FedEx plugin for WooCommerce. http://www.woothemes.com/products/fedex-shipping-module/ Thanks in advance. ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Re: Which SOAP?
Sounds like you’re after PHP’s extension for SOAP. I’d recommend php54-soap in general, but if you want MacPorts to auto-upgrade you beyond PHP 5.4 then use php5-soap.

Unfortunately, that didn't do the trick. Restarted Apache, nothing. Even rebooted the server, still no joy. Attempting to activate the plugin gives me an error that it requires SOAP support on the server/hosting to function, with a link to http://php.net/manual/en/class.soapclient.php Any further suggestions? ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Thanks all. Turns out I've got php5 port installed, so php5-soap is working for now. And yes, I probably ought to upgrade soon. ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
