using library functions in shell script
hey guys, i made up a library file called common.lib so as to reuse the same code without typing it again. here is the code. its pretty basic . Code:
## This is the second function
compare()
{
file1 = $1
file2 = $2
cmp $file1 $file2
if [ $file1 -eq $file2 ]
then
echo "comparison is possible"
else
echo "compariosn is not possible"
fi
}
i have another shell script that uses the function 'compare' from the library file . here is the code. Code:
#!/usr/bin/bash . ./common.lib compare $file1 $file2 i know i am going wrong somewhere because when i try to execute the shell script, the cursor just waits at the console without spitting out any output. after a while i have to terminate the process using ctrl+c . please tell me where i am going wrong. thanks Arsenalboy. |
