Commands with colons
Issue #20
resolved
Ran into an issue today where a 5250 command within the :system
section of a xxxx.lst
file had a colon (:
) in it. The wildcard in the case
statement caused the command to not be processed because it thought it was a "action".
Below is a snippet from chroot_setup.sh
with the offending case
pattern pointed out (*:*
).
function chroot_setup {
# copy needed PASE binaries
action=""
while read -r name <&3; do
case "$name" in
"")
# echo "empty"
;;
*#*)
# echo "comment"
;;
*:*) <----------------------
# echo "action"
action=$name
;;
*)
I propose we only search for the colon in the first space of a line by changing to the following:
function chroot_setup {
# copy needed PASE binaries
action=""
while read -r name <&3; do
case "$name" in
"")
# echo "empty"
;;
*#*)
# echo "comment"
;;
:*) <-------------------------------------
# echo "action"
action=$name
;;
*)
I tested this on a complex chroot creation and it is working as expected.
