Shell Programming and Scripting

Iknew parying was a waste of time..........

One dir is a symbolic link to the other, except in later Solaris, where one dir supports boot and the other supports more complex apps, so you have to do both / and /usr in PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Without LD_LIBRARY_PATH, dynamically linked programs cannot find their libs.

Thnaks DG, can you advise as how I rectify?

For thread timers, beyond gethrtime(), you tend to get platform dependent. Someone should POSIX up a double float time and interval time function set. This mentions an assembler call:

-------------- For cron script problem ---------- two threads together makes you double post ----------------

Somewhere early, you need to include explicitly or in a 'sourced' file ( . file_full_path ) these lines:

Code:

PATH= . . . .
export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH= . . . .
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

and any other variables you need, like the Oracle ones, using the values from your terminal set. The sh form above is also ksh/bash compatible.

FYI I have now being posting into original thread under Solaris!
