Shell topological sort

POSIX-compliant topological sort using shell script

Usage

Prepare your input file, and redirect it into its stdin.

sh main.sh < input.properties

Input file format

Just as like .properties file.

Each line is in form KEY=VALUE where VALUE is space-separated dependencies of KEY

Example below

minirt.exe=-lminirt -lminirt_args
-lminirt=-lcommon -lm
-lcommon=-lc
-lminirt_args=-lcommon

output:

-lc
-lcommon
-lm
-lminirt
-lminirt_args
minirt.exe

Restrictions

• No detection for dependency cycle.
• Line break and equal sign and spaces are not supported due to file format.
