Executing commands in sub shell

Normally, a shell script is nothing but a series of commands to be executed. Some commands open up a sub shell and will prevent the remaining commands in the script from getting executed..

To run such commands in the sub shell opened by the command use the
-exec option..

For example when you use the ADE commands like

ade useview view_name

a new subshell will be created..In this new sub shell, if you want to run any command, do the following..

Create a new shell script which contains all the commands to be executed in the sub shell ..for example

subshellcommands.sh
------------------------
ade pwv
cd $ADE_VIEW_ROOT/bin
ant -f build.xml build

Now the actual script that contains the ade useview command should be as follows..

mainscript.sh
-------------
ade useview -exec /full/path/of/the/file/subshellcommands.sh view_name
