Calling script from RM cobol and returning value to cobol
Is there a way you can return a value from a script that is called from a rm cobol program...
01 WS-COMD-LINE-PGM X(39) value sh ./getUserId.sh 12345"
01 WS-RETURN-SYS-CODE PIC 9(8).
CALL "SYSTEM" USING WS-COMD-LINE-PGM
GIVING WS-RETURN-SYS-CODE.
WS-RETURN-SYS-CODE will return a numeric success / failure indicator.
My script returns values using exit command as below: (suggestion to improve the script will also help) -
#getUserId.sh - Get user from /etc/passwd using PID passed from cobol program.
processid=$1
echo $processid
if test -f pslog
then \rm pslog
fi
ps -ef -o "%u: %p" | grep $processid > pslog
cat pslog
puser_id="$(cut -d: -f1 < pslog)"
echo "User Name=" $puser_id;
puser_name="$(cut -f 1,5 -d : /etc/passwd | grep $puser_id)"
echo $puser_name
exit $puser_name /* I want to pass this back to cobol program that called thsi scrip*/

atf-sh
ATF-SH(1) BSD General Commands Manual ATF-SH(1)
NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs
SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script
DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library.
atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter-
preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not
use any non-standard extensions.
The following options are available:
-s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL.
ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes.
ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes.
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a
specific interpreter.
EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with:
#! /usr/bin/env atf-sh
Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode
the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter:
#! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash
ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts.
