Hi,
I have a script which does something like the below:
Code:
execute_some_script.sh $arg1 $arg2 `exec-some-cmd`
if [ $? -eq 0 ] then;
do something
else
do something else
fi
However, during some cases, there is an error saying:
line xxx: [: too many arguments
at the line number which has the if statement. The script which is getting called is actually an expect script. Anyway, I am really confused about how its possible for $? to return multiple values. Can someone please help?
Sys: HP-UX 9000
In the calling script how do I 'read' the return/exit value of a called script?:confused:
THX in advance for any assistence.:) (1 Reply)
I think the $? returns 0 if the last issued command was successful and otherwise if not. But does anyone knows the value list that may be returned ? (or it is only zero/one ? )
Thanks in advance,

tcl_allowexceptions
Tcl_AllowExceptions(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_AllowExceptions(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tcl_AllowExceptions - allow all exceptions in next script evaluation
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
Tcl_AllowExceptions(interp)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter in which script will be evaluated.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
If a script is evaluated at top-level (i.e. no other scripts are pending evaluation when the script is invoked), and if the script termi-
nates with a completion code other than TCL_OK, TCL_ERROR or TCL_RETURN, then Tcl normally converts this into a TCL_ERROR return with an
appropriate message. The particular script evaluation procedures of Tcl that act in the manner are Tcl_EvalObjEx, Tcl_EvalObjv, Tcl_Eval,
Tcl_EvalEx, Tcl_GlobalEval, Tcl_GlobalEvalObj, Tcl_VarEval and Tcl_VarEvalVA.
However, if Tcl_AllowExceptions is invoked immediately before calling one of those a procedures, then arbitrary completion codes are per-
mitted from the script, and they are returned without modification. This is useful in cases where the caller can deal with exceptions such
as TCL_BREAK or TCL_CONTINUE in a meaningful way.

continue, break, exception, interpreter
