Global Variable declaration

chakicherla · #1 (**permalink**) 10-02-03, 01:12

Hi all,

If I want to declare global variables in shell script what should I do?

For example:

If I have a file called "env.rc", which contains set of variable declarations.

Now, if I have a program called 'A' which calls the script "B" which in turn calls script "C".

I want to have all the variables declared in all the scripts. For this, I need to run the "env.rc" in each & every script or can we run this globally in one, so that it applies to all the scripts.

Advice me.

Regards
CKC

Source env.rc in your scripts, e.g.

. env.rc
