[Orgmode] [babel] Executing source block which includes another block

[Francesco Pizzolante]

Hi,

Here's a small example where I'm interested both in tangling source blocks and
executing sources blocks in my org buffer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Test

** Common part

#+srcname: common
#+begin_src sh :exports none :results silent
   VAR=ThisIsATest
#+end_src

** My shell script

#+srcname: script
#+begin_src sh :exports results :tangle my-script
   <<common>>
   date
   echo $VAR
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


When I tangle the script block, I correctly get the following my-script.sh
file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#!/usr/bin/env sh
# generated by org-babel-tangle
# [[id:a0232b32-0b2c-4105-94ae-8c0f1ca67101][script]]
VAR=ThisIsATest
date
echo $VAR
# script ends here
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


When I try to execute (C-cC-c) the same script block I get the following
result:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+results: script
| "sh:" | "line" | "6:" | "syntax"       | "error" | "near" | "unexpected" | 
"token" | "`newline'" |
| "sh:" | "line" | "6:" | "`<<common>>'" | ""      | ""     | ""           | "" 
     | ""          |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The included <<common>> block should also be executed when executing the
<<script>> block.

Is there another way of doing?

Thanks,
Francesco
