I am working on a script that will recycle processes in an application identified by entry ids. I am reading a file, and using the first field in the records in file to store the entry ids. The second field is a description. I have two records in this file to test my script.
My code to do this works! The problem is when I go to put it in a function, it again works, I just do not get the output to my shell session. Why is that?
How do I force the output to also echo to the shell session? It related to how I call the function? - Thanks ~SkyyBugg
If I comment out:
#doIt ()
#{
#}
#doit
I get the output!
I'd like to keep the function.
code:
cat /home/thomasm/cycler_printer_mt.ksh
#/usr/bin/ksh!
