Sorry Don. A bit detailed explanation,

Code calls:
Shell script A calls a C program
C program calls Shell script B

Shell script B & C-program are fixed. I can't change them. Shell script B gets the sed string from a properties file .

Properties file contents -> Name-Transform: s/.xml$/$(date +%Y).xml/

Shell script B:
-> gets and stores the sed string in $TRANSFORM.
-> Calls the command - $(echo ${filename} | sed "$TRANSFORM" , for substitution.

Sorry for misleading. Below are the testing results.

input filename : abc.xml
I am getting Output as : abc.$(date +%Y).xml
I am Expecting output : abc2015.xml

What is required for me? I need the sed string which i can use in properties file.

Please advise . Let me know if you need more details.
