Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Get variables from expression Post 302901558 by rbatte1 on Wednesday 14th of May 2014 10:13:54 AM

Here are some more expressions SmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilieSmilie

Are you saying that the people setting up their customised variables will be doing so free-form? I would be concerned that they will not process. What are you writing in and what would you expect to write in?

Would you expect to be able to recognise and process UsrAppNO=(UsrCustGBLNo*2) + UsrCustRegNo + 99 or could you set the rules? In ksh (like my example) this could be written as:-
Code:
((UsrAppNO=$UsrCustGBLNo*2)+$UsrCustRegNo+99))

Setting up a quick test, I got this:-
Code:
# UsrCustGBLNo=5
RBATTE1> UsrCustRegNo=10
RBATTE1> ((UsrAppNO=($UsrCustGBLNo*2)+$UsrCustRegNo+99))
RBATTE1> echo $UsrAppNO
119
RBATTE1>


Does that help?

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
