How do you use newgrp in a script then stay in that group when the script exits

Question

I am running a script on a solaris Box. specifically SunOS 5.7. I am not root. I am trying to execute a script similar to the following:

Answer 1

This example was expanded from plinjzaad's answer; it handles a command line which contains quoted parameters that contain spaces.

#!/bin/bash
group=wg-sierra-admin
if [ $(id -gn) != $group ]
then
    # Construct an array which quotes all the command-line parameters.
    arr=("${@/#/\"}")
    arr=("${arr[*]/%/\"}")
    exec sg $group "$0 ${arr[@]}"
fi

### now continue with rest of the script
# This is a simple test to show that it works.
echo "group: $(id -gn)"
# Show all command line parameters.
for i in $(seq 1 $#)
do
    eval echo "$i:\${$i}"
done

I used this to demonstrate that it works.

% ./sg.test  'a b' 'c d e' f 'g h' 'i j k' 'l m' 'n o' p q r s t 'u v' 'w x y z'
group: wg-sierra-admin
1:a b
2:c d e
3:f
4:g h
5:i j k
6:l m
7:n o
8:p
9:q
10:r
11:s
12:t
13:u v
14:w x y z
