How do I evaluate the result of a command assigned to a variable??
Example:
var1=`cmd`
rc=$?
rc will be the result of the assignment rather than cmd since it executes after. How do I evaluate the result of the command itself?
Cheers..
It should still be assigned to $?.
$ var1=`false`
$ echo $?
1
$ var1=`true`
$ echo $?
0
$
