find . -name "*.java"
grep -rnw '/path/to/somewhere/' -e 'pattern'
-r or -R is recursive,
-n is line number, and
-w stands for match the whole word.
-l (lower-case L) can be added to just give the file name of matching files.
-e is the pattern used during the search
Along with these, --exclude, --include, --exclude-dir flags could be used for efficient searching:
This will only search through those files which have .c or .h extensions:
grep --include=\*.{c,h} -rnw '/path/to/somewhere/' -e "pattern"
This will exclude searching all the files ending with .o extension:
grep --exclude=\*.o -rnw '/path/to/somewhere/' -e "pattern"
For directories it's possible to exclude one or more directories using the --exclude-dir parameter. For example, this will exclude the dirs dir1/, dir2/ and all of them matching *.dst/:
grep --exclude-dir={dir1,dir2,*.dst} -rnw '/path/to/somewhere/' -e "pattern"

Notes: Exit codes range [0..255] and an 'exit' inside a function quits the function but not the main script.
1st option: Using global variables
#!/bin/bash
ret_global_test()
{
global="Leaving response in a global var"
}
global=""
ret_global_test
echo $global
Previous script outputs: "Leaving response in a global var"
2nd option: Using command substitution
#!/bin/bash
exit_test()
{
echo "Yes, that's me"
exit 27
}
exit_test
Previous script outputs: "Yes, that's me"
3rd option: Using in/out parameter
#!/bin/bash
my_function() {
[ $1 ] || { echo "Wrong usage"; exit 1; }
myvar="Let us return something"
eval $1='$myvar'
}
my_function param_in_out
echo $param_in_out
The previous script outputs:
Let us return something
If we forget to pass the in/out parameter we would get:
Wrong usage
