您可以这样使用：

## declare an array variable
declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3")

## now loop through the above array
for i in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$i"
   # or do whatever with individual element of the array
done

# You can access them using echo "${arr[0]}", "${arr[1]}" also

也适用于多行数组声明

declare -a arr=("element1" 
                "element2" "element3"
                "element4"
                )

声明数组不适用于Korn shell。对Korn shell使用以下示例：

promote_sla_chk_lst="cdi xlob"

set -A promote_arry $promote_sla_chk_lst

for i in ${promote_arry[*]};
    do
            echo $i
    done

listOfNames="db_one db_two db_three"
for databaseName in $listOfNames
do
  echo $databaseName
done

或者只是

for databaseName in db_one db_two db_three
do
  echo $databaseName
done

这与user2533809的答案类似，但每个文件都将作为单独的命令执行。

#!/bin/bash
names="RA
RB
R C
RD"

while read -r line; do
    echo line: "$line"
done <<< "$names"

您可以这样使用：

## declare an array variable
declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3")

## now loop through the above array
for i in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$i"
   # or do whatever with individual element of the array
done

# You can access them using echo "${arr[0]}", "${arr[1]}" also

也适用于多行数组声明

declare -a arr=("element1" 
                "element2" "element3"
                "element4"
                )

如果您使用的是Korn shell，则有“set-A databaseName”，否则有“declare-A databaseName”

要在所有外壳上编写脚本，

 set -A databaseName=("db1" "db2" ....) ||
        declare -a databaseName=("db1" "db2" ....)
# now loop 
for dbname in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$dbname"  # or whatever

done

它应该在所有外壳上工作。
