Passing shell script variable to sql file by reference (bind variable)

Question

Hi All,
I need to import around 50 files every 15 minutes into my target table.
I am using shell script and call procedure to do transform.
I used crontab to do this automate task.
Here is my shell script and sql file:
shell script:
#!/bin/sh
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.4.0
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin
find /path_rawfile/rawfile -iname raw\*.in > myfile.lst
nfile=1
while [ true ]
do
read iFile #read a line
if [ $? -ne 0 ] #Break if EOF
then
break
fi
#$PATH/sqlplus -s /NOLOG @load_raw.sql $iFile
#/bin/mv -f $iFile /path_rawfile/rawfile/done/
done < myfile.lst
sql file:
connect test/test@evn1
set serveroutput on
variable filename varchar2(50)
begin
:filename := '&1';
exec my_tranform(:filename);
dbms_output.put_line(:filename);
end;
exit;
Even I used bind variable pass to procedure my_transform...
But when i query in sys.v_$sqlarea, the :filename:='&1' still hard parse to sqlarea.
One filename one statement and keep increasing ..
Could everyone help me to change it to bind varialbe(soft parse)?
I would like to incresae my database performance.
Thanks in advance.

It is the procedure.
It's my fault.
Here is my SQL file again:
conn test/test@evn1
variable filename varchar2(500);
exec :filename:='&1';
exec my_transform(:filename);
exit;
I call this sql file from shell script and call in loop due to i need to load all file one time.
Once i use <<EOF it raise error that's why when I deleted it.
Anyway, what I need to do here is to use bind variable (soft parse).
Since I need to load around 50 files every 15 minutes.
exec :filename:='&1'; this statmet have found hard parse in v_$sqlarea.
I would like to change this to bind varialbe.
Thanks again for your help.
