Hi Lucas
Your advice is really helpful, I understood the reason under your
illustration.
The reason is that I was starting STAF by calling
". /usr/local/staf/startSTAFProc.sh" in runTest.sh
unfortunately, according to the man page, '.' reads and executes
commands from filename in the current shell environment.
The "current shell environment" seems contains current parameters.
so, actually I was calling
"/usr/local/staf/startSTAFProc.sh <testName>"
and startSTAFProc.sh passed "testName: to STAFEnv.sh because
it is calling ". /usr/local/staf/STAFEnv.sh".
