Hi Monks,

I have a perl file and .sh file. the perl file call the sh file. I want to use the shell script variable into the perl file. Is there any possible way to access the shell variable in to a perl file in run time. Below I show my sample perl file and the .sh file.

Thanks,

perl Script

#!/usr/bin/perl
# File Name : parent.pl
# Initial level stuffs
# Some stuffs
system ("sh path_reset.sh mypath");

# Any possible way to use the shell script variable here
print "\n$MY_LIB_PATH";

Shell Script

#!/bin/sh
# File Name : path_reset.sh
VAR1="value 1"
VARn="value n"

MY_HOME=$1
MY_LIB_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/$MY_HOME
MY_LIB_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/$MY_HOME/$VAR1
export $MY_LIB_PATH; 
echo $MY_LIB_PATH

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
