the below is my code. i'm not able to retrieve the "position" value.
Code:
function mask
{
set -x
file_name=$1
position=$2
separator=$3
if [ -e $file_name ];then
awk '
BEGIN {FS="[,\|]"}
FNR==NR{a[$1]=$2;next}
{if ($position in a) {$position=a[$position];print}
else print}
' OFS="$separator" $DIR_FEEDBASE/GEID_lookup.txt $file_name > $file_name_tmp.dat
mv $file_name_tmp.dat $file_name
fi
}
The parameters which will be passed to the function will be like " mask <file_name> \$1 |
Moderator's Comments:
I asked you kindly to use code tags - instead you just formatted it with fonts. It is awful to remove all those font formattings to be able to add indention that you also did not use. You get a reminder for this and a PM with an instruction how and when to use code tags.

I need to pass a parameter to a function in a script. My parameter is a string. When I display the parameter within my function, I only get the first word from string I pass in.
How can I make the function receive the whole string (and not terminate at the first space it encounters)?.

Hello,
Could anyone help me with some KSH syntax? I'm trying to pass a list as a function parameter in a KSH?
For example I have code like this:
print_counter() {
N=$1
C=$2

xkbgetindicatormap
XkbGetIndicatorMap(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbGetIndicatorMap(3)NAME
XkbGetIndicatorMap - Gets the map for one or more indicators, using a mask to specify the indicators
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbGetIndicatorMap (Display *dpy, unsigned int which, XkbDescPtr desc);
ARGUMENTS
- dpy connection to the X server
- which
mask of indicators for which maps should be returned
- desc keyboard description to be updated
DESCRIPTION
Xkb allows applications to obtain information about indicators using two different methods. The first method, which is similar to the core
X implementation, uses a mask to specify the indicators. The second method, which is more suitable for applications concerned with interop-
erability, uses indicator names. The correspondence between the indicator name and the bit position in masks is as follows: one of the
parameters returned from XkbGetNamedIndicators is an index that is the bit position to use in any function call that requires a mask of
indicator bits, as well as the indicator's index into the XkbIndicatorRec array of indicator maps.
XkbGetIndicatorMap obtains the maps from the server for only those indicators specified by the which mask and copies the values into the
keyboard description specified by desc. If the indicators field of the desc parameter is NULL, XkbGetIndicatorMap allocates and initial-
izes it.
To free the indicator maps, use XkbFreeIndicatorMaps.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct type and range, but is otherwise
invalid
BadImplementation
Invalid reply from server
