MINCCOMPLETE(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation MINCCOMPLETE(1)NAMEminccomplete - checks if a MINC file is complete
SYNOPSISminccomplete [options] <file.mnc>
minccomplete is designed as a QC tool that you can use to check if MINC
or xfm files have been completely written.
DESCRIPTIONminccomplete will check if a file exists and is completely written.
The reasons for non-completion are varied but typically caused when a
process writing a MINC or xfm file is interrupted. A zero will be
returned if the file is complete and a -1 if it isn't.
Examples:
$ minccomplete in.mnc
0
$ minccomplete in.xfm
0
A MINC file is returned as complete if the image attribute
image:complete is set. ie:
mincinfo -attvalue image:complete infile.mnc
A xfm file is deemed complete if xfm2param can parse the file. The
associated exit codes will also be set as part of this so that
minccomplete can be used in scripts.
An entirely simplistic example:
#! /bin/sh
infile=$1
if [ `minccomplete ${infile}` ]
then
echo "Yes!"
else
echo "Nope, try again"
fi
