(home is just a example-name , it could be javahome, )

Yes, I am trying to validate javahome, anthome etc in script. Workaround would be pass parameter-name and parameter-value to the function. and accordingly write the function.

---------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
check() {
if [ ! -d ${1} ]; then
echo "${2} is not a dir"; exit 1
fi
echo dir
}
javahome=/u4/k
check $javahome javahome
------------------------------------------------
