still seems to be a slight regression here with arrays ... for example, consider this stripped down script: expand_parameters() { local x=$( eval echo ${@// /_} ) local -a a=( ${x} ) a=( [EMAIL PROTECTED]/#/\"} ) a=( [EMAIL PROTECTED]/%/\"} ) echo "${a[*]//_/ }" } iface_start() { local -a a a=( "${config_lo}" ) expand_parameters "${a[0]}" } config_lo=( "127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255" ) iface_start if we run this with <=bash-3.0, we get: "127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255" with bash-3.1 though, we get no output at all ... changing expand_parameters() slightly is one workaround: - local -a a=( ${x} ) + local -a a ; a=( ${x} ) -mike _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
