passing variable content to a function
following on from below link
HTML Code:
https://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/171076-shell-scripting.html#post302573569
i will be using file reading in while loop say for example
Code:
 
while read line123
do
        echo "line read is $line123"
        insert_funct $line123
done< mysqldump.sql
 
inser_funct()
{
    echo $1
}

here say the mysqldump.sql has a line

`reserved2` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL,
`reserved3` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL

it reads the first line and it will be stored in line123 variable in while loop but when i pass this to a function insert_funct i am able to receive only `reserved` and rest of the content is not visibile. if i echo in while loop its showing whole line and in function its showing clipped one. if you see the html link of my previous code i have two function. in one function i need only `reserved` which is column name and in other i need whole line. but as i said before am able to receive only `reserved` even then i am not able to perform string manipulation on that. its length is shown null etc etc.

any help is deeply appreciated
regards,
vivek
