Hi,
Just some questions on the script below...?
Given: bash-2.03$ command -a option1 name1 name2
ParseOptions()
{
local Len=${#@}
local Ctr=2 #always start at 2
local Name=()
local Iter=0
while [ $Ctr -lt $Len] ; do
if [ $Ctr -eq "-a" ] <- Is this correct? so I can get the $2 ("-a")
Ctr=$(($Ctr + 1))
local Option=$Ctr <- Is this correct?
else
Name[$Iter]=$Ctr <- Is this correct?
Iter=$(($Iter + 1))
fi
Ctr=$(($Ctr + 1))
done
}
Is there a better way to do this?
Note that the command may or may not have options, and the options can be interchanged (ex. bash-2.03$ command name3 -a option2)
also I need to check for this:
bash-2.03$ command name3 -a option2 name2
-> Should I make this an error?
kindly advise.
Thanks!
