如何在AIX服务器中运行在shell脚本中创建的功能？

Question

I had created a shell script in a linux machine, it is executing fine in that machine as well as in other linux machine but when I am running the same script in an AIX machine it is not working.

For ex- script1

print "Hello"
a()
{
 print "Welcome"
}

b()
{
 print "Bye"
}

a
b

While executing this script in a linux machine the output is

Hello
Welcome
Bye

But while executing it in an AIX machine the output is

Hello

I think it is not calling the function a and b in the AIX machine. So can anybody give me solution to run the script in both Linux and Aix machine.

Answer 1

-try to define function without paranthesis, eg:

function a { print "Welcome" }

-don't forget to define shell - #!/bin/sh

-perhaps try to use another shell implementations (ksh, bash, ...)

-just in case, I saw somewhere that on AIX you can't write both, opening and closing curly braces on the same line { }
