Shell Programming and Scripting

In a ksh shell... I need to pass 12 parameters to a secondary ksh shell. In VB I would just pass an array that contains all of these, but haven't been successful in passing the full array in a KSH shell.

Does anyone have an example where you can pass an array as a parameter?

here's what i have so far on the one doing the invoking..

.
.
set -A arryCompare $strEnv1Name $strEnv1User $strEnv1Pass $strEnv2Name $strEnv2User $strEnv2Pass $strDbName $strEleType $strDirResult $strDirDiff $strDirTemp $strCCaseInd

st09_Syb_Comp_List.sh $(arryCompare)
.
.

Thanks for any and all responses on this.

okay... I found a solution for the problem... but any other solutions are welcomed.

in Script 1:
.
.
set -A arryCompare $strEnv1Name $strEnv1User $strEnv1Pass $strEnv2Name $strEnv2User $strEnv2Pass $strDbName $strEleType $strDirResult $strDirDiff $strDirTemp $strCCaseInd

st09_Syb_Comp_List.sh "$(arryCompare[*])"
.
.

in Script 2: ... st09_Syb_Comp_List.sh
.
set -A arryCompare $1
.
.
.
Thanks,
Harold

You are cramming all of your array elements from script 1 into a single large array element in script 2.

In script 1 you need:
t09_Syb_Comp_List.sh "$(arryCompare[@])"

In script 2 you need:
set -A arryCompare "$@"

to keep the arrays similiar.

Thanks for posting the fix. That solved a problem that I hadn't found till this morning.
