Example

To start the IDL Compiler with the parameters for the interface object generation, enter, for example the following in a single command line:

java -classpath "%ProgramFiles%\Software AG\EntireX\classes\saglic.jar";"%ProgramFiles%\Software AG\EntireX\Classes\exxidlcompiler.jar" -Dsagcommon="%CommonProgramFiles%\Software AG" com/softwareag/entirex/idlcompiler/TplParser -PSANITIZE -D BROKER="localhost:1971" -D SERVICE="RPC/SRV1/CALLNAT" -t "%ProgramFiles%\Software AG\EntireX\Template\csharp_client.tpl" -F example -o NET example.idl

The client interface object is generated in the subdirectory NET.

Status and processing messages are written to standard output (stdout), which is normally set to the executing shell window.
