Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I am assigning value to array in for loop,
here is the code:

for arg in $FILE
do
TMP=`dirname $arg`
${DIR[i]}=$TMP
echo ${DIR[i]}
let "i = $i + 1"
done

Here TMP gives,
d1/data/BCR
d1/data/BLM


Getting following error:

temp.sh: =d1/data/BCR: No such file or directory
temp.sh: =d1/data/BLM: No such file or directory


Can anyone please advise...

What is in the $FILE variable
ie., show the output of

Code:

echo "$FILE"

This is not an assignment.

Code:

${DIR[i]}=$TMP

I believe this is what you intended to do:

Code:

DIR[i]=$TMP

Thanks mate, its working...
