Hello.

Yesterday I couldn't test the code. I was too tired and didn't even came to my laptop.

Today I tested it and the variable "$used_net" is correctly set! I echo'ed it right before testing it with 'test' as I posted in my post #37.

But I might have seen the wrong problem. I mean, the problem is not that it's not issuing the correct command as I said. I'm sorry for messing this. The problem is rather that both commans are buing issued!

Example:
Code:
send_multiple_payment(){
   eval_send_amount
   mk_json_object_one_val "$btc_amount_dec" "${addr_arr[@]}"
   mk_json_lst_one_val "${addr_arr[@]}"
   echo "\$used_net is: $used_net"
   [ "$used_net" == "testnet" ] ||  echo "bitcoin-cli -testnet sendmany \"\" {$pairs} 6 Payments [$items] true 6 CONSERVATIVE"\
                                &&  echo "bitcoin-cli sendmany \"\" {$pairs} 6 Payments [$items] true 6 CONSERVATIVE"
   #echo "TxID: $1"
 }

This is the problematic function, which is being called like:

Code:
LC_NUMERIC=C
check_args_count "$@"
process_args "$@"
load_addr_data
send_multiple_payment

The result is:
Code:
$ ./auto_trbtc.sh -m -a addr_lst.dat
2 addresses sucessefuly loaded.

0.00256372
$used_net is: mainnet
bitcoin-cli -testnet sendmany "" {"n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC":"0.00256372","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ":"0.00256372"} 6 Payments ["n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ"] true 6 CONSERVATIVE
bitcoin-cli sendmany "" {"n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC":"0.00256372","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ":"0.00256372"} 6 Payments ["n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ"] true 6 CONSERVATIVE

When the expected is only:
Quote:
bitcoin-cli sendmany "" {"n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC":"0.00256372","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ":"0.00256372 "} 6 Payments ["n1yswZYByRv3okGDHs1oDaevq8gsDaYZzC","2NFafKRugHFdYEib7xVfkT6bvtkUKK8oShZ"] true 6 CONSERVATIVE

One extra question:
The 'test' program uses && for true and || for false, right? Does it matters the order we place the code to be executed after the && or the || ? I mean, Does 'test' knows that && is always for true and || is always for false no matter which comes first?

In the meantime I did my test and answered myself:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

 test_str="trrue"

 [ "$test_str" == "trrue" ] && echo "true1" || echo "false2"
 [ "$test_str" == "trrue" ] || echo "true1" && echo "false2"

Code:
true1
false2
