## In POSIX sh, FDs outside of 0-9 are undefined.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(or "In dash, ... are not supported." when using `dash`)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Problematic code:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
# Open FD #10 for writing
|
||||||
|
exec 10> file
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Correct code:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Either rewrite the script to only use FDs in the valid range, or switch to a shell that allows a larger range like `bash` or `ksh`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Rationale:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The shell grammar is only required to recognize a single digit before redirections to set the file descriptor, which limits the portable range to 0-9.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Exceptions:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
None.
