Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> DONE script enclosed: shell script to compare nos.
Hello every one,
Thanks for the awk script sent before, I could not use ask as some sites dont have awk but have nawk, so my script will fail. So alternatively devised this shell script, which does the job:-
#!/bin/sh
olddir="7.04.03"
olddir1="`echo $olddir| cut -c1 `"
olddir2="`echo $olddir| cut -f2 -d"." `"
olddir3="`echo $olddir| cut -f3 -d"." `"
if [ "$olddir3" = "" ]; then
olddir3=00
fi
VER="7.05" ver1="`echo $VER| cut -c1 `" ver2="`echo $VER| cut -f2 -d"." `" ver3="`echo $VER| cut -f3 -d"." `" if [ "$ver3" = "" ]; then ver3="00" # echo "The third version value is $ver3" fi fullver="$ver1""$ver2""$ver3" if [ "$fullversion" -gt "$fullver" ];then echo "The $olddir version is greater than $VER version" elif [ "$fullversion" -lt "$fullver" ];then echo "The $olddir version is less than $VER version" else echo "Both versions are equal" fi ==============================================
Basically I strip away the release nos. like instead of accepting 7.04.03, I accept it as 70403 and then compare and output.
Thanks for help.
Regrads,
Raja
