Include file not running using igawk
Greetings.

I'm on section 2.7 Including Other Files into Your Program in "The GNU Awk User’s Guide". I am on HP-UX POSIX running GNU Awk 3.1.0

I have written Test1.awk and Test2.awk as shown here:
Code:
 $cat test1.awk
BEGIN {
    print "This is script test1.\n"
}
$cat test2.awk                                                                 
@include "/TEST/JDLONG/test1.awk"
BEGIN {
    print "This is script test2."
}
$

When I run test1.awk it runs fine:
Code:
$/usr/local/bin/igawk -f /TEST/JDLONG/test1.awk 
This is script test1.

When I run test2.awk it prints its own message but not the message
from test1.awk

Code:
$/usr/local/bin/igawk -f /TEST/JDLONG/test2.awk 
This is script test2.

Someone may point out that I fully qualified my include in test2.awk
when referencing test1.awk. When I just code it like this
Code:

 @include "test1.awk"
 BEGIN {
 print "This is script test2."
 }

I get this result:

Code:
$/usr/local/bin/igawk -f /TEST/JDLONG/test2.awk 
igawk:/TEST/JDLONG/test2.awk:0: cannot find "test1.awk"
This is script test2.



So at least by fully qualifying it, it is at least 'resolving'
(but someone may point out the 'correct' way to code this).
(I do not see directory called 'library' anywhere near /usr/local/bin - but perhaps it is called something else?)

Here is my AWKPATH variable:
Code:
$echo $AWKPATH
/usr/local/bin/gawk:/TEST/JDLONG



AFAIK only igawk allows you to use @include so that is why I am running that.

So..anyone have any idea's on why I am not getting the print
statement from test1.awk when I run test2.awk.

TIA
