Category | Rule |
Case sensitivity | JMSAdmin commands are not case sensitive. |
Command forms | Some command names have long and short forms. For example, you can execute the copy command as either copy or cp. |
White space | Spaces and tab characters are considered white space. You can use empty lines in a command sequence to increase readability, such as in a batch file. |
Use of quotes | If a parameter value is a keyword used by JMSAdmin, or contains spaces or special characters, enclose the value in single or double quotes (for example, "My Directory", "$$NewVariableVal", and 'QueueConnectionFactory'). |
Continuation character | You can use the hyphen (-) at the end of a line as a continuation character. The following code fragment shows the use of a hyphen as a continuation character: bind cf publicCF with - brokerHost=$bHost - brokerName=$bName |
Multiple commands | You can place multiple commands on a single line if the commands are separated by semicolons (;). The maximum length of a command line is limited only by the constraints of your operating environment. |
Comments | Single-line comments are indicated by the pound-sign character (#), as shown in the following example: # This sequence creates a context at the top level # and switches to the new context. create context TestContext # Creates the new context. |
