Hi,
I want to use our shell script collection which includes sqlplus calls
under Cygwin.
I have the following problem with this code snippet:
#!/bin/bash
RESULT=`sqlplus -s myuser/[EMAIL PROTECTED] <<EOF
SET FEEDBACK OFF;
SET PAGESIZE 0;
SELECT '42' FROM DUAL;
EOF`
if test "$RESULT" = "42" ; then
echo "Result is 42..."
else
echo "Result is not 42 ??!"
fi
When I run the script on UNIX it prints "Result is 42..." which is OK.
When I run the script under Cygwin the result is: "Result is not 42??!"
The reason is that under Cygwin the result of the SELECT are 3
characters "42" "CR" "LF" (instead of 2 characters "42" and "LF").
I did not found a way to convince sqlplus to produce UNIX-EOLs on
Windows. Does anyone know how to solve the problem without changing
the code itself ?
Um, if by "the code" you meant the above script, then no. Otherwise it
looks like you could drop a '| d2u' (or '| sed s/\r//g') in there. I
forget though if you want:
RESULT=`app | d2u << EOF
input
EOF`
or
RESULT=`app << EOF
input
EOF | d2u`
...or possibly neither. At any rate, that's a question of shell syntax;
get that right and it seems it should work.
