For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
info regarding timeout in case of expect

Posted by vikas (vikas), 21 July 2005
hey
i am telneting a particular router and getting the interface info by show info command. i have automated this with expect.
Now i am to get the interface name only.out of the whole text.
i am trying to save everything before the next # but my expect_out(buffer) is able to save only some part of the whole text.

Can anybody help

Regards
Vikas

Are you able to post a few lines of code that show the problem?

It could be that you're expecting a massive amount of data and only getting a part of it (I'm not sure what / if there's a limit - I vaguely recall 32k), or it could be that the pattern you're expecting as the next prompt is also matched within the response - so that you're only getting the text back through to that point.

You subject line says "timeout".  How do timeouts relate to your question?
