Hi Darren,
I'm looking into converting DC over to the engine
prototype that you guys worked on. And, I've run
into an interesting problem -
A number of the DC checkpoints are implemented as
ksh scripts. That brings up the question of a) Can
the engine register shell scripts as checkpoints?
and, b) Is there a way these scripts can talk to
the DOC (which is a python object)?
(b) is needed because these scripts need certain
values out of the DOC in order to perform their
function.
I had initially planned on wrapping these shell
scripts in python program that interact with the DOC,
extract the needed values out of it and invoke the
shell script with those values as arguments. However,
that can become quite cumbersome for scripts that
look up more than a handful value and/or deal with
variable number of arguments. So, I'm looking for
an alternate approach.
Thanks,
Alok
