Hi all;
I have just recently delved into the magical world of Bash scripting and
programmed up the following script(not finished). The object is to parse
the Path and check for the existence of each directory. Please don't
send back an Awk or Sed statement that is more efficient. I am having
enough trouble with the Bash script.
Something is wrong with the logic of the if-fi statement. It is
triggered every time through the loop. The statement A="0; " seems to
be true no matter what the value of A. The if statement is there to
clear out the first item in the array that seems to be empty. Please help.
#!/bin/bash
set -x
#trap read debug
Path="/Test/gary/run/something"
IFS=/
read -a Array <<< $Path
for i in "${!Array[@]}"
do
A="${i} ; ${Array[i]}" #Load A
echo "A is equal to $A"
if [ A="0 ; " ]
then
echo "continuing"
continue
else
echo "Do rest of loop"
fi
done
Thanks in advance.
Gary R.
