Hi Guys,

Thanks for your help it is working fine if I do as you said

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
C_fun() {
  typeset TEXT=${1}
}
C_fun ${1}
echo Value of TEXT $TEXT

I have one more question on this. How can I Pass multiple parameters to a function above I'm passoing C_fun ${1} only . I want to pass $2 also as an parameter to a function I tried by placing comma like C_fun ${1},${2} but this is giving me Value of Text F,Fail. How to pass multiple parameters to a function and see its value.

---------- Post updated at 04:51 PM ---------- Previous update was at 04:45 PM ----------

Here is my script


Code:
#!/bin/ksh
C_fun() {
typeset TEXT=${1}
typeset  Stat=${2}
}
C_fun ${1},${2}
echo Value of TEXT $TEXT
echo Value of Stat $Stat


But it is giving me
Code:
Value of TEXT F,Fail
Value of Stat

Value of Stat is empty I need to get its value as Fail and Text Value as F since $1 is F and $2 is Fail

I think this post will be more clear then previous one.

Thanks,
Raju.

create_text_search_template

CREATE TEXT SEARCH 
TEMPLATE(7)				  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation			    CREATE TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE(7)

NAME

       CREATE_TEXT_SEARCH_TEMPLATE - define a new text search template

SYNOPSIS

       CREATE TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE name (
	   [ INIT = init_function , ]
	   LEXIZE = lexize_function
       )

DESCRIPTION

       CREATE TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE creates a new text search template. Text search templates define the functions that implement text search
       dictionaries. A template is not useful by itself, but must be instantiated as a dictionary to be used. The dictionary typically specifies
       parameters to be given to the template functions.

       If a schema name is given then the text search template is created in the specified schema. Otherwise it is created in the current schema.

       You must be a superuser to use CREATE TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE. This restriction is made because an erroneous text search template definition
       could confuse or even crash the server. The reason for separating templates from dictionaries is that a template encapsulates the "unsafe"
       aspects of defining a dictionary. The parameters that can be set when defining a dictionary are safe for unprivileged users to set, and so
       creating a dictionary need not be a privileged operation.

       Refer to Chapter 12, Full Text Search, in the documentation for further information.

PARAMETERS

       name
	   The name of the text search template to be created. The name can be schema-qualified.

       init_function
	   The name of the init function for the template.

       lexize_function
	   The name of the lexize function for the template.

       The function names can be schema-qualified if necessary. Argument types are not given, since the argument list for each type of function is
       predetermined. The lexize function is required, but the init function is optional.

       The arguments can appear in any order, not only the one shown above.

COMPATIBILITY

       There is no CREATE TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE statement in the SQL standard.
