Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Combining multiple variables into new variable Post 302524269 by methyl on Sunday 22nd of May 2011 09:03:24 PM

Back to Post #1. If you really want to do it this way, then you need to use a Shell "eval" statement wherever you are changing the name of an environment variable on the fly. This further involves escaping certain $ symbols to protect them from the Shell first pass.

On a design point it would be much easier to read a flat file of records with each records containing the three parameters. The script would then work for a virtually unlimited number of records.

SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve(3pm)

NAME
SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve - A class for representing SRU searchRetrieve responses SYNOPSIS
## create response from the request object my $response = SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve->new( $request ); ## add records to the response foreach my $record ( @records ) { $response->addRecord( $record ); } ## print out the response as XML print $response->asXML(); DESCRIPTION
SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve provides a framework for bundling up the response to a searchRetrieve request. You are responsible for generating the XML representation of the records, and the rest should be taken care of. METHODS
new() numberOfRecords() Returns the number of results associated with the object. addRecord() Add a SRU::Response::Record object to the response. $response->addRecord( $r ); If you don't pass in the right sort of object you'll get back undef and $SRU::Error will be populated appropriately. records() Gets or sets all the records associated with the object. Be careful with this one :) You must pass in an array ref, and expect an array ref back. resultSetId() resultSetIdleTime() nextRecordPosition() diagnostics() extraResponseData() echoedSearchRetrieveRequest() asXML() asXML(encoding=>"ISO-8859-1") Returns the object serialized as XML. UTF-8 and UTF-16 are default encodings if you don't pass the encoding parameter. You can define different encoding in order to parse you XML document correctly. perl v5.12.4 2009-11-20 SRU::Response::SearchRetrieve(3pm)
