BATCH command line keyword

BATCH specifies whether the server should run in no-UI mode. No user interface is displayed by the application when running from a command line that includes BATCH=YES. For example, for rwserver this allows the server to be run from scripts and remote agents so that no server dialog box displays while it is running.

With rwconverter, BATCH=YES suppresses all terminal input and output in order to convert reports and libraries without user intervention. With rwserver, BATCH turns the server dialog box off (YES) or on (NO) to display or suppress process messages.

The executables that can use this keyword are:

rwbuilder no
rwrun yes
rwclient no
rwcgi no
rwserver yes
rwservlet no
rwconverter yes

Syntax

BATCH={YES|NO}

Values
