<workbench> -natural:client /Demo/Example.idl -environment localhost:1971@SRV1 -operationtype SAVE -targetlibrary MYLIB
where <workbench> is a placeholder for the actual Workbench starter as described under Using the EntireX Workbench in Command-line Mode.
The name of the IDL file includes the project name. In the example, the project Demo is used. If the IDL file name describes a file inside the Eclipse workspace, the name is case-sensitive.
If the first part of the IDL file name is not a project name in the current workspace, the IDL file name is used as a relative (based on the IDL file) or absolute file name in the file system. Thus, the IDL files do not need to be part of an Eclipse project.
<workbench> -natural:server /Demo/Example.idl -environment localhost:1971@SRV1 -operationtype SAVE -targetlibrary MYLIB
where <workbench> is a placeholder for the actual Workbench starter as described under Using the EntireX Workbench in Command-line Mode.

Warning: Take care not to overwrite an existing server implementation with a server skeleton. We recommend you move your server implementation to a different folder. |
<workbench> -natural:client /Demo/example.idl -environment localhost:1971@SRV1 -operationtype GET
Uses the IDL file /Demo/example.idl and generates the Natural source files in parallel to the IDL file of the project /Demo. Output to standard output:
Using workspace file:/C:/myWorkspace/. Processing IDL file C:/myWorkspace/Demo/example.idl to get the Natural interface objects via RPC environment localhost:1971@SRV1 Store Natural Source file C:\myWorkspace\Demo/CALC.NSN Exit value: 0
<workbench> -natural:client /Demo/example.idl -environment localhost:1971@SRV1 -operationtype SAVE -targetlibrary TEST
Uses the IDL file /Demo/example.idl and generates the Natural source files on the server side into the library TEST. Output to standard output:
Using workspace file:/C:/myWorkspace/. Processing IDL file C:/myWorkspace/Demo/example.idl to stow the Natural interface objects via RPC environment localhost:1971@SRV1 Exit value: 0
