Subject: [U-Boot] using ${var} with env import
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2011 10:20:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D92E7B4.9010305@keymile.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I am using env import -t to import environment variables from a textfile.
My simple textfile is:
fdt_file=${hostname}/${hostname}.dtb
I import the file with:
=> tftp 200000 scripts/my_environ.txt
=> env import -t 200000 ${filesize}
Now when I print the variable I get:
=> print fdt_file
fdt_file=${hostname}/${hostname}.dtb
hostname is defined as:
=> print hostname
hostname=mgcoge
I see that the ${hostname} for my fdt_file variable is not replaced. If I do
this with setenv:
=> setenv fdt_file_2 ${hostname}/${hostname}.dtb
=> print fdt_file_2
fdt_file_2=mgcoge/mgcoge.dtb
My variable is replaced.
Is the usage of ${var} in the textfiles not possible? Or is there a way to solve
this problem?
I try to use this textfile for different boards and can therfore not specify
hostname in advance in the textfile.
Best regards
Holger Brunck
