Check if command is succesfull without using if statement
Here is a big problem I have. I want to write a command and execute print out the message if command is not successful. So is there a way to do following in single line:
gcc -c test.cpp
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "this failed so badly"
fi
I know this line:
gcc test.c && [ $? -ne 0 ] && echo "Hell"
will not output anything because gcc will be successful and [ $? -ne 0 ] will fail thus echo will not be executed. So how do I exectue [ $? -ne 0 ] if gcc fails?
Thank you in advance.
