Full Discussion: Bash - concatenate string - strange variable scoping
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Bash - concatenate string - strange variable scoping Post 302980736 by Don Cragun on Thursday 1st of September 2016 04:43:55 PM

In POSIX, it is unspecified whether or not the last stage of a pipeline is run in the current shell execution environment. (In ksh it is and the script in post #1 would work without change; in bash it is not and the value of a variable set in the last stage of the pipeline disappears when the pipeline completes execution.)

With any POSIX conforming shell, you could modify disedorgue's suggestion to:
Code:
runCmd="docker run -e \"IMAGE_NAME=$IMAGE_NAME\" "
while read line; do
   envCmd="-e \"${line}\" "
   runCmd=$runCmd$envCmd
   echo $runCmd # here concatenation works fine
done <<EOF
$(env | grep "$ENV_SUFFIX")
EOF
echo $runCmd # and concatenation works here too

and get what you want.

GLUSEPROGRAMSTAGES(3G)						  [FIXME: manual]					    GLUSEPROGRAMSTAGES(3G)

NAME

       glUseProgramStages - bind stages of a program object to a program pipeline

C SPECIFICATION

       void glUseProgramStages(GLuint pipeline, GLbitfield stages, GLuint program);

PARAMETERS

       pipeline
	   Specifies the program pipeline object to which to bind stages from program.

       stages
	   Specifies a set of program stages to bind to the program pipeline object.

       program
	   Specifies the program object containing the shader executables to use in pipeline.

DESCRIPTION

       glUseProgramStages binds executables from a program object associated with a specified set of shader stages to the program pipeline object
       given by pipeline.  pipeline specifies the program pipeline object to which to bind the executables.  stages contains a logical combination
       of bits indicating the shader stages to use within program with the program pipeline object pipeline.  stages must be a logical combination
       of GL_VERTEX_SHADER_BIT, GL_TESS_CONTROL_SHADER_BIT, GL_TESS_EVALUATION_SHADER_BIT, GL_GEOMETRY_SHADER_BIT, and GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER_BIT.
       Additionally, the special value GL_ALL_SHADER_BITS may be specified to indicate that all executables contained in program should be
       installed in pipeline.

       If program refers to a program object with a valid shader attached for an indicated shader stage, glUseProgramStages installs the
       executable code for that stage in the indicated program pipeline object pipeline. If program is zero, or refers to a program object with no
       valid shader executable for a given stage, it is as if the pipeline object has no programmable stage configured for the indicated shader
       stages. If stages contains bits other than those listed above, and is not equal to GL_ALL_SHADER_BITS, an error is generated.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if shaders contains set bits that are not recognized, and is not the reserved value GL_ALL_SHADER_BITS.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if program refers to a program object that was not linked with its GL_PROGRAM_SEPARABLE status set.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if program refers to a program object that has not been successfully linked.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if pipeline is not a name previously returned from a call to glGenProgramPipelines() or if such a name
       has been deleted by a call to glDeleteProgramPipelines().
