UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi,

I have a script testor.s which takes a string as command line argument,
Contents of the script:

#!/bin/ksh -x
if [[ "WO_STMT_05292009" != "$1" || "WO_BENE_STMT_05292009" != "$1" ]]
then
echo "error"
else
echo "correct"
fi

Here, though i provide the command line argument as "WO_STMT_05292009", it displays error

Is there any problem with the way i have implemented logical or?

Thanks,
Sheema

this will work...

Code:

if [[ "$1" = "WO_STMT_05292009" || "$1" = "WO_BENE_STMT_05292009" ]]
then
echo "correct"
else
echo "error"
fi

The || should be && in the test conditions:

Code:

if [[ "WO_STMT_05292009" != "$1" && "WO_BENE_STMT_05292009" != "$1" ]]

Thanks Shubhendu and Franklin52....both the code works for me.
