Shell Script to call another function
Here is the following code :

1.
Code:
# gcc -c test firstprog.c

the above command will generate a executable file called "test " in which ever directory it is run.

Assuming It will also return a value.


2. In the below SCRIPT . test is a file generated by compiling a c program from firstprog.c... When ever i run this executable file generated by a C prog,

::::: Now i am writing a script to run that executable file " test " through the script and whatever return value " test " generates has to be used to check a condition.


MY PROBLEM here is : I am not able to read that file as show below./....


Code:
#!/bin/sh
. test 

if [ $? - eq 0 ]   

then whiptail --title "Message " --msgbox "successfull" 10 40 && echo "yeiiieieieieieieieiei";

else whiptail --title "Message" --msgbox "failed" 10 40  && echo "failure..... :(   ";
fi

when I run this script... following error is show.
ERROR shown as :
Code:
