Hello,
I need to be able to dynamically locate the file oci8.rb from a sh
script…
Do you have any idea how to do this ?
Many Thanks,
R.

find / -type f -name oci8.rb

Hum… My question was not precise enough.
Exactly! 
I am looking for the location
of the particular oci8.rb file that my current ruby interpreter is
using. As it has to be done at each execution of my program, I would
like to avoid scanning the entire file system. My ruby interpreter is
able to locate it, I would like to be able to do the same either in ruby
or in sh script. Any idea ?
puts $:.find {|dir| File.file? dir + “/oci8.rb”}
Cheers

The interpreter searches the file in directories defined in $LOAD_PATH.
You can do the same …
location = $LOAD_PATH.find { |dirname| File.exists?(File.join(dirname,
filename) }
