Command Line Method for Creating an Application (CreateApp)
You can use the CreateApp utility to create applications. These applications will be empty, but you can add components to them later. Start the CreateApp utility by entering the following command at the command line:
w4gldev createapp database application [-nowindows] [-uusername] [-Lfilename]
    [-rremark] [-T{yes|yes,min|yes,logonly|all|all,min|all,logonly|no}]
The following parameters and flags are available from the command line:
database
Specifies the name and location of the database in which the application resides
application
Specifies the name of the application to create
-nowindows
Lets the application run without the window manager running. This option does not provide full batch mode execution, because some interaction with the application still may be required through the Trace window.
-uusername
Lets you use this command as if you were another user, username.
Note:  You, not username, own all files created by OpenROAD.
-Lfilename
Specifies the name of a log file. If the log path specified is not a full path, the file is created in the %II_SYSTEM%\ingres\files directory.
-rremark
Specifies an optional comment or description about the application
-T
Controls the display of the Trace window by entering one of the following values:
yes
Specifies that the Trace window appears but suppresses all informational system messages
yes,min
Specifies that the Trace window appears minimized as an icon, and all informational system messages are suppressed
yes,logonly
Specifies that the Trace window does not appear, but all messages are saved in a log file without informational system messages
all
Specifies that the Trace window does appear and all messages are written
all,min
Specifies that messages are written to the Trace window, which appears minimized as an icon
all,logonly
Specifies that the Trace window does not appear, but all messages are saved in a log file
no
Specifies that the Trace window does not appear, and no log file is created
An exit code of zero (0) means success; a non-zero exit code indicates an error.
