How to Pass Parameters
Keywords: param0 parameters
Parameters are passed into a WBT file as param1, param2, param3, etc. param0 contains the total number of parameters.
To pass parameters from Program Manager, or Explorer's Start Run:
c:\winbatch\wbat16i.exe c:\script\mybatch.wbt fred 1234
where fred and 1234 are parameters.
To pass parameters using the Run function in a WinBatch script:
If a WBT file is run as follows the parameter(s) don't get passed to the program:
Run("TEST.WBT", "stuff")
Use this method instead:
run("c:\winbatch\system\winbatch.exe","c:\script\mybatch.wbt fred 1234")
or, if WinBatch is in the path:
Run("WINBATCH.EXE", "TEST.WBT stuff")
Question:
The command line entry on our NT4 server to start jobs (documented) in Oracle Applications concurrent manager is:e:\> concsub APPS/APPS \ SYSADMIN \ "\"System Administrator\"" \ SYSADMIN \ WAIT=N \ CONCURRENT \ FNDSCARU \ FNDSCARUwhere lines 2 to 8 comprise 9 parameters which must be passed to the executable
e:\applr_107\fnd\6.1\bin\concsub.exeThe .wbt file which has these parameters in quotes, comma seperated within the RUN cammand does not work. Any ideas ?
Answer:
My guess is:DaExe="e:\applr_107\fnd\6.1\bin\concsub.exe" DaParams=`APPS/APPS SYSADMIN "System Administrator" SYSADMIN WAIT=N CONCURRENT FNDSCARU FNDSCARU` Run(DaExe,DaParams)
