<workbench> -extract:natural -environment natBroker:2006@RPC/NATSRV1/CALLNAT -project /Demo -library NATDEMO -object CALC
where <workbench> is a placeholder for the actual
Workbench starter as described under Using the EntireX Workbench in Command-line Mode.
The extracted IDL file will be stored in the project Demo.
If the environment name is not a defined RPC Environment in the current workspace, the name will be interpreted as a Broker ID and RPC Server Address (brokerID@serverAddress).
The library specifies a library name and the optional object defines the program name. Wildcard notation with asterisk (*) can be used at the end of these names.
Status and processing messages are written to standard output (stdout), which is normally set to the executing shell window.
