When I set a variable with multiple sequential spaces in the value then pull back the variable later the extra spaces are collapsed. For example:
--------------------------------------------------------- $ STAF local var set system var multi-space=one two three $ STAF local var list system |grep multi-space multi-space : one two three --------------------------------------------------------- I found however that if I wrap the value in quotes: --------------------------------------------------------- $ STAF local var set system var multi-space="one two three" $ STAF local var list system |grep multi-space multi-space : one two three --------------------------------------------------------- I get the right answer. Is this the expected behaviour? --------------------------------------------------------- version=3.3.4 platform=linux architecture=32-bit installer=STAFInst file=STAF334-linux.tar osname=Linux osversion=* osarch=x86 --------------------------------------------------------- -- --------------------------------------------------------- Raymond Kroeker ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
