Callin Expect script in Perl..
I have stored some Info in my array(@array1) in my perl script as follows
EXPORT VAR1=
EXPORT VER2=
EXPORT VAR3=
I call my expect script in my perl script as follows
system("log $ip @array1");
So in the expect script It needs to log into the machine and then export the contents in the array to the machine.
Can we pass an array from perl script as parameter to the expect script?
Iam not sure how to read the contents in an array in expect script.

build-lives-rfx-plugin
build-lives-rfx-plugin(1) General Commands Manual build-lives-rfx-plugin(1)
NAME
build-lives-rfx-plugin - builds rendered effects for LiVES
SYNOPSIS
build-lives-rfx-plugin script_name [plugin_dir] -get section file
DESCRIPTION
This perl script is used by LiVES to compile an RFX (rendered effect) plugin for LiVES. It is generally called from build-lives-rfx-plugin-
multi for a script which has a language code representing LiVES-perl. The script_name must be the full (absolute) path to the plugin
script, and plugin_dir can be used to specify the output directory where the compiled plugin should be generated. If plugin_dir is not
defined then /tmp is assumed.
The second variant with -get is used to print out a script section from a plugin script to stdout. It is generally only used internally by
LiVES.
Return values The script returns the following values
0 - success 1 - the value of a trigger was greater than the number of parameters 2 - a value could not be read from the script file 3 - the
language code of the plugin script was not equivalent to LiVES-perl 4 - the API version level of the plugin script was invalid 5 - the
<define> section was missing from the plugin script
