hi

well i think i did this once, you can read the output of the SQL query into shell variables by first redirecting the output of the SQL query to an OS file and then reading the file and loading the data in the file into shell variables.

/* here is sample code to redirect the output of sql query to OS file */

#!/bin/sh

CMD_FILE=sql_input.sql
LOC_FILE=output.log

     SQLCMD="connect internal ;
          select * from sys.dba_users ;"
     echo "$SQLCMD" > ${CMD_FILE}

     svrmgrl < ${CMD_FILE} > ${LOC_FILE}     /* redirecting the out of
svrmgrl to OS file */

Hi

I wanted to select a column from a v$ table

struggled with it
and finally came with a workaround as follows


archived_log='$archived_log'
begin_seq=`sqlplus -s /nolog <<EOF
connect / as sysdba
set head off
set echo off
set feedback off
set verify off
select max(sequence#)-1 from v$archived_log ; exit
EOF`
echo $begin_seq


However, the question is how to
'directly' take the output into a shell variable? there 'shud be' a better workaround than this !

Thanks
