Reformatted so it's actually readable - on most days I'd never bother to even _try_ and read that solid block of text (grumble grumble):

IN WINDOWS we have a loader.exe file which loads the data in some queue. We keep this data in a particular folder i.e "in" folder.

Now this loader.exe file picks the data from the "in" folder and loads it in an MQueue. I dont know exactly how this loader.exe file works but w.r.t this question i dont think its important.

Now we created a load.bat file:

Code:

c:
cd c:/prjct/Java/bin
Loader.exe -t ABC.cfg -f c:/prjct/Java/in/Data
Loader.exe -t DEF.cfg -f c:/prjct/Java/in/Data1

Things in bold above is contained in load.bat file.
As i told you, "in" is the folder where we have data which is picked up by loader.exe.
ABC.cfg and DEF.cfg files are 2 config files( Since data is in GFF i.e Generic File Format)

IN UNIX now i need a shell script which does the same work as "load.bat" . ( I guess i have loader.exe in my unix box...and it works fine....)
I just need a shell script syntax which does the same thing as load.bat file did in windows
URGENT

This shell script should do the trick:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

LOADER="/path/to/Loader.exe"    # Change the stuff in "" to be the full directory and name of your Loader program

cd `dirname "$LOADER"`
$LOADER -t ABC.cfg -f `dirname "$LOADER"`/in/Data
$LOADER -t DEF.cfg -f `dirname "$LOADER"`/in/Data1

What's an MQueue?

Nothing above is in bold.

When posting code, please put it in [code] tags.

What does load.bat do?

There are no .exe files in UNIX.

Not true, the OP is asking for a unix shell script (based on the windows batch file he provided called 'load.bat') that will run his unix version of Loader.exe on a unix box.

An incredibly badly formatted post but the actual question makes perfect sense (assuming I've correctly interpreted the post

)

I guessed the OP was refering to an MQ series queue, but I suspect it's not actually all that important as it appears to be just a matter of converting a batch file to a shell script

true dragon... you interpreted it correctly. Thanks for your help.I will try that shell script. Going ahead will take care of formatting....
