I have values in the variable as so the for loop just fetches one by one
params=$'$HEW_SRC_DATABASE_LIB\nprmAttunityUser\nprmAttunityPwd\nprmODBCDataSource\nprmLoadInd\nprmSrc_Lib_ATM\nprmODBCDataSource_ATM'
and i have a grep command like this
ret=`grep \$y $pf`
Where $y refers to values in the params variable and $pf contains certain values which are assigned to the values fetched from params variable.
The output through that command is
$HEW_SRC_DATABASE_LIB prmAttunityUser prmAttunityPwd prmODBCDataSource prmODBCDataSource_ATM prmLoadInd prmSrc_Lib_ATM prmODBCDataSource_ATM
Due to which it returns me prmODBCDataSource as well as prmODBCDataSource_ATM whereas i want it to fetch it the same sequence as only
$HEW_SRC_DATABASE_LIB prmAttunityUser prmAttunityPwd prmODBCDataSource prmLoadInd prmSrc_Lib_ATM prmODBCDataSource_ATM
I used grep command with ^ sign something like this
ret=`grep \^prmAttunityUser\= filename`
But this skips some other values so both commands are not helping me.
Can anyone please help me with a proper grep command
