Using arrays in shell

I have three arrays. One is Master array and that has list of other array in config file.
for e.g (for simplicity I have only defined array with 2 elements each)

Code:
set +A MASTERARRAY SQLUPDATE_ONETIME SQLUPDATE_DAILY END_OF_ARRAY

set +A SQLUPDATE_ONETIME  update12 update22  END_OF_ARRAY
set +A SQLUPDATE_DAILY  update32 update42 END_OF_ARRAY


I am trying to write a shell script (KSH) to iterate over master array to get the list of array to process (for e.g. SQLUDATE_ONETIME) I need to process one by one. Then go through each element of processing array then do something with it. This is what I have so far.. Any help will be appreciated.

--- Code starts here-----

Code:
set +A MASTERARRAY SQLUPDATE_ONETIME SQLUPDATE2_DAILYEND_OF_ARRAY

set +A SQLUPDATE  update12 update22  END_OF_ARRAY
set +A SQLUPDATE2  update32 update42 END_OF_ARRAY
#echo "first  - ${SQLUPDATE[1]}\n"

CTR=0
while [[ ${MASTERARRAY[CTR]} != "END_OF_ARRAY" ]]; do
echo "Processing ${MASTERARRAY[CTR]} element of an TEMPARRAy\n" ELEMENT=${MASTERARRAY[CTR]} echo "Processing ${ELEMENT} element of an MASETERARRAY\n" FIRSTELEMENT=$(eval echo \$${ELEMENT}[$CTR]) echo "This FIRST ELEMENT ${FIRSTELEMENT}\n"
count=0 while [[ $(eval echo \$${ELEMENT}[count]) != "END_OF_ARRAY" ]] ;do ELMNT2=$(eval echo \$${ELEMENT}[count]) echo "This is the next element of $ELEMENT - <$ELMNT2>\n" # do some checking and process the element (( count = count + 1 )) done (( CTR = CTR + 1 )) done

I am having trouble going thru arrays listed in Masterarray - Please help

ARRAY_INTERSECT_KEY(3)							 1						    ARRAY_INTERSECT_KEY(3)

array_intersect_key - Computes the intersection of arrays using keys for comparison

SYNOPSIS
array array_intersect_key (array $array1, array $array2, [array $...]) DESCRIPTION
array_intersect_key(3) returns an array containing all the entries of $array1 which have keys that are present in all the arguments. PARAMETERS
o $array1 - The array with master keys to check. o $array2 - An array to compare keys against. o $... - A variable list of arrays to compare. RETURN VALUES
Returns an associative array containing all the entries of $array1 which have keys that are present in all arguments. EXAMPLES
Example #1 array_intersect_key(3) example <?php $array1 = array('blue' => 1, 'red' => 2, 'green' => 3, 'purple' => 4); $array2 = array('green' => 5, 'blue' => 6, 'yellow' => 7, 'cyan' => 8); var_dump(array_intersect_key($array1, $array2)); ?> The above example will output: array(2) { ["blue"]=> int(1) ["green"]=> int(3) } In our example you see that only the keys 'blue' and 'green' are present in both arrays and thus returned. Also notice that the values for the keys 'blue' and 'green' differ between the two arrays. A match still occurs because only the keys are checked. The values returned are those of $array1. The two keys from the key => value pairs are considered equal only if (string) $key1 === (string) $key2 . In other words a strict type check is executed so the string representation must be the same.
