Hi,

Iam trying this out and it is not working any help is appreciated

ntbshell.exe -server otcxxxdothis AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt

AAA - Item
BBB - Warehouse
530 -Company
C:\baan\tmp\test.txt Path where file with output is created.

I debugged the 3GL and it works, but when i use the above version to execute it fails and I dont know where to look for errors.

How to pass arguments to 3GL script??

Can we debug this process?

Regards

The major thing you did wrong is:

bshell6.2 [options] [program...]

so first the options, then the session name:

ntbshell.exe -server AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt otcxxxdothis

for passing parameters see the functions argv and argc.

Hope this helps,
Dick

The options mentioned for ntbshell.exe is not the arguments we pass to the program otherwise all my arguments become options???


Regards

bshell6.2 -server -nodebug -set BSE_COMPNR=$COMPANY -set PACKAGE_COMB=$PACKAGE_COMB $OBJECT $HOST $PORT 2>${BSE_LOG}/sockmon.log

Hello,

I have tried:

ntbshell.exe -server AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt otcxxxdothis

&

ntbshell.exe -server otcxxxdothis AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt

both didn't work! :(. Can any one tell me why?

Then I tried:

C:\Program Files\Baan\bin>bw "C:\Program Files\Baan\lib\user\newNT.bwc" otcxxxdothis AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt

It did work. But I need to log on to baan every time I use it. I know I can save the password but the admin won't like it!

Thanks

Hi NpRao,

what you have illustrated is it for UNIX or for WindowsNT???

Also as the other guy has mentioned I dont want to login either everytime.

Regards

yes its on Unix, its from one of our shell scripts.

So,

Is there a way to do this in NT too?

Can I execute the 3GL program from a command line without logging on to baan (If I am already logged on)? :confused:

Shall we forget about executing the 3GL program from command line without logging on to baan (if it was opened) ??

is it doable in NT :( ?

Apparently yes, on unix you are already identified when you are running a command from the shell (like calling the ba6.1), this is not possible on Windows unless you save your password on the bwc - as mentioned all over the threads, unix does offer advantages that Windows does not...

The below format did work for me in NT.
ntbshell.exe -server otcxxxdothis AAA BBB 530 c:\baan\tmp\test.txt
But the only thing is it has to be executed on server.
and offcourse I used Command promt to invoke the above 3GL.
