I am modifying a Korn shell script in using the Exceed (Solaris 10 environment). My task is to read in a .txt file with dates arranged like this (01-Sep-2006). I am to read each line and take the dates, compare them to a benchmark date and depending on if it is older than the date or the date and newer, produce a result. The problem is that when the first date is read, the condition for the first date follows for the rest of the dates. This is not what I want. I want to have each date tested and produce a different result. Here is what I have:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
#set -x
#NOW, WE OPEN THE TEXT FILE
exec 3<week_ending_dates1.txt
while read -u3 LINE
do
day=$(echo $LINE | cut -d'-' -f1)
month=$(echo $LINE | cut -d'-' -f2)
year=$(echo $LINE | cut -d'-' -f3)
case $month in
Jan*)
month=01
;;
Feb*)
month=02

Mar*)
month=03

Apr*)
month=04

May*)
month=05

esac
# THE DATE IS NOW PUT BACK TOGETHER TO BE COMPARED TO THE BENCHMARK
testdate=$year$month$day
branchdate="20070814"
if [[ $testdate -lt $branchdate ]]; then
more week_ending_dates1.txt | grep Month | awk '{ print "time "$1 \n test1" > "file_"$1}'
else
more week_ending_dates1.txt | grep Month | awk '{ print "time "$1 \n test2" > "file_"$1}'
fi
done
exec 3<&-
In Korn Shell, can you use "go to" statements? Would you then put paragraph names with a colon?
For example,
would you specify "goto para1" and then have the paragraph with the label para1:?

shcomp
SHCOMP(1) Korn shell utilities SHCOMP(1)NAME
shcomp - compile a shell script
SYNOPSIS
shcomp [ options ] [infile [outfile]]
DESCRIPTION
Unless -D is specified, shcomp takes a shell script, infile, and creates a binary format file, outfile, that ksh can read and execute with
the same effect as the original script.
Since aliases are processed as the script is read, alias definitions whose value requires variable expansion will not work correctly.
If -D is specified, all double quoted strings that are preceded by $ are output. These are the messages that need to be translated to
locale specific versions for internationalization.
If outfile is omitted, then the results will be written to standard output. If infile is also omitted, the shell script will be read from
standard input.
OPTIONS
[D dictionary] Generate a list of strings that need to be placed in a message catalog for internationalization. [n noexec] Displays warn-
ing messages for obsolete or non-conforming constructs. [v verbose] Displays input from infile onto standard error as it reads it.
EXIT STATUS
0
Successful completion.
>0
An error occurred.
