Hello all,
Ihave the following script, called as tst. When the script is executed as,
tst, then every thing is okay, but when it is executed as . tst, then I get
the error:-
sh: SHLIB_PATH: Parameter not set.
I need to use the following format that is
. .profile, as in above case as . tst
The reason why I am doing above is because the SHLIB_PATH is not set
properly, I get heaps of problems. If the SHLIB_PATH is not set, I just want
to set it to say $HOME.
Please reply as this is urgent.
Thanks and Regards,
Raja
======================================
The script follows:-
#!/bin/sh
#
echo
echo
echo Start Test
echo
echo uname -a = `uname -a`
echo First check what happens if you try and set SHLIB_PATH
echo and there is no initial setting
unset SHLIB_PATH
echo First what is its value?
echo SHLIB_PATH = $SHLIB_PATH
echo Now lets set it to default:123
SHLIB_PATH="$SHLIB_PATH:123"
echo OK what is the value now?
echo SHLIB_PATH = $SHLIB_PATH
echo
echo Now lets reset the value to nothing
unset SHLIB_PATH
echo Check value
echo SHLIB_PATH = $SHLIB_PATH
echo Now do what is in our script....
if [ -z "${SHLIB_PATH}" ]; then
echo It has no current default value
SHLIB_PATH="${HOME}"
else
echo It has a default path of $SHLIB_PATH
SHLIB_PATH="${HOME}:${SHLIB_PATH}"
fi
echo So what is our final result?
echo SHLIB_PATH = $SHLIB_PATH
