I have been trying to get variable within variable expansion to work but have not been able to succeed. It seems that the two suggestions I am seeing are using 'eval' and using the built in bash capability of "${!test}". Here is a snippet of what I"m trying to accomplish:
This would be used as:
And ideally receive:
Can anyone shed some light on what I am doing wrong here? I appreciate any guidance.
We have a script that runs in ksh on HP-UX 11.11. It takes three arguments. The last argument can be a filename or wildcard character. For example:
script -s hello -t goodbye '*.d*'
In a case such as this, I would wrap single quotes around the final argument because I dont want the shell to... (4 Replies)

If I type `last STUDIN\\eip060` it works but if I try to expand it with variable it is... (5 Replies)
Hello -
I have a bash script which does some logging, and I'd like to include the line number of the echo statement that pipes into $LOGGER:
MYPID=$$
MYNAME=`basename $0`
LOGGER="/usr/bin/logger -t $MYNAME($LINENO) -p daemon.error"

echo 'this is an entry into the log file' | $LOGGER

I'm in the habit of using the following type of loop structure:
for num in `seq $1 $2`
do
command
doneWhile `seq $1 $2` is not exactly a huge resource hog, I would like to learn a better way. It seems that brace expansion is a good way to go:
for num in {3..10}The problem, though, is... (2 Replies)

The objective of the code below is to create sed script to be later executed. However, it bonks because $ARCHIVENAME expands to a directory specification so the forward slashes cause problems.

Hi forum,
in my bash script I've many lines executing commands with redirection to log files.

xyz_cmd 2>&1 > $BASENAME.$LINENO
The trailing part of these lines doesn't look nice and I like to put it into a variable.
The (not working) idea is something like that

So, I was bored on the train today, and was thinking of ways to loop through elements of an array. I came up with the following simple script, but it doesn't work as brace expansion doesn't seem to work with variables. Is there something I'm missing, or does the shell just not work like this?

RABBITMQ-ENV.CONF(5) RabbitMQ Server RABBITMQ-ENV.CONF(5)NAME
rabbitmq-env.conf - default settings for RabbitMQ AMQP server
DESCRIPTION
/etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf contains variable settings that override the defaults built in to the RabbitMQ startup scripts.
The file is interpreted by the system shell, and so should consist of a sequence of shell environment variable definitions. Normal shell
syntax is permitted (since the file is sourced using the shell "." operator), including line comments starting with "#".
In order of preference, the startup scripts get their values from the environment, from /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf and finally from
the built-in default values. For example, for the RABBITMQ_NODENAME setting,
RABBITMQ_NODENAME
from the environment is checked first. If it is absent or equal to the empty string, then
NODENAME
from /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf is checked. If it is also absent or set equal to the empty string then the default value from the
startup script is used.
The variable names in /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf are always equal to the environment variable names, with the RABBITMQ_ prefix
removed: RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT from the environment becomes NODE_PORT in the /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf file, etc.
# I am a complete /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf file.
# Comment lines start with a hash character.
# This is a /bin/sh script file - use ordinary envt var syntax
NODENAME=hare

# I am a complete /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf file.

NODENAME=hare
This is an example of a complete /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf file that overrides the default Erlang node name from "rabbit" to "hare".
