RunImage Utility Parameters

The RunImage utility can use the following parameters to start an OpenROAD Workbench session. You enter values for these parameters in the RunImage dialog (see Start OpenROAD Workbench Using RunImage (see Start OpenROAD Workbench Using RunImage)).

Specifies the name and location (host machine) of the database that contains the data to be used in the application. This database need not be the same database that was specified when the application was created.

Note: The syntax for this parameter may differ on different servers (for example, it may be vnode::dbname/ingres on Ingres and vnode::dbname/oracle if you are using Enterprise Access for Oracle).

Specifies a component (frame or procedure) to use as the starting point for the application. By default, the application starts with the frame or procedure specified in the Property Inspector.

Lets you use Workbench as if you were another user, whose user name you enter. Note that you, not the specified user name, own all files created by OpenROAD.

Note: This parameter may be available exclusively to users with certain permissions (or it may be mandatory regardless of your rights), depending on the database. For example, on Ingres, only the database administrator, the Ingres system administrator, or a superuser can use this parameter. This parameter may also include a password (-uusername /password).

Specifies the name of a different environment variable to contain your list of DLLs or shared libraries to be searched when resolving 3GL procedure calls. If this variable is present, the -m parameter overrides any existing specification of II_LIBU3GL.

For more information, see How You Can Use 3GL DLLs or Shared Libraries (see How You Can Use 3GL DLLs or Shared Libraries).

Specifies a file containing overrides for the version and location of any included applications.

For more information about specifying an override file, see How You Can Image Included Applications (see How You Can Image Included Applications).

Specifies a file containing initial values for the global variables and global constants in the application. These values remain in effect for the duration of the current OpenROAD session.

For more information about creating an initialization file, see Specify Initial Values for Global Variables and Global Constants (see Specify Initial Values for Global Variables and Global Constants).

Causes the trace output of the current command to be appended to the bottom of the existing error log file. Otherwise, this log file is replaced.

Instructs Workbench to create a separate window system control for each field on a form. By default, Workbench multiplexes a single control for many fields as an optimization.

Controls the display of the Trace window by entering one of the following values:

Specifies that the Trace window appears but suppresses all informational messages output by the system

Specifies that the Trace window does not appear and a log file is not created
