Overview

If your license allows it, gmStudio can be operated in a batch mode. You will typically do this using the sample batch files we provide. This section describes the gmStudio command line.

gmStudio Command Line Syntax

The form of the gmStudio command line is as shown below:

   gmStudio /AUTOBATCH=[YES|NO] "/CFG='cfgpath'" "/MIG='migpath'" "/TOOLS='tool_list'" "/TASKS='task_list'" "/REPORTS='report_list'" [/IGNOREMRU] ["/LOGSTART='startup log path'"] "[/FILTER='source filter']"

where:

/AUTOBATCH = YES|NO

If AutoBatch=YES then the command list specified in the migration project file (.gmproj) will be performed. Otherwise, the set of task/tools specified on the command line will be performed.

/CFG sets the path to an application config file (gmstudio.cfg) /MIG = "migpath" sets path to a migration project file (.gmproj)

or

/MIG = a migration project specification string: one of more of the following semicolon delimited list of project creation parameters:

Parameter	Description	Status/Default
Name=name;	name is the name of new upgrade project	optional, default=NewUpgrade
Source=source;	source is the name of the folder containing the source codes	required
NetLang=lang;	lang is the target .NET language (csh\|vbn)	optional, default=csh
SendTo=sendto;	sendto is the name of the folder to store the project workspace	required
SourceFilter=pattern;	pattern is .vbp\|.asp\|fully qualified path to a single file	optional=*.vbp
VSVersion=VSnnnn;	VSnnnn is a VSversion name (e.g. VS2010, VS2010, VS2015)	optional, default=VS2013
OverWrite=yes\|no;	'yes' means to replace a pre-existing gmProj silently and 'no' indicates to promot the user	optional, default="no"

/FILTER restricts processing to the source tasks listed. Multiple tasks indicated using '+'. Wildcard using '*'.

/TOOLS specifies a comma delimited list of the following tools (iterate over all migration units for each tool)

      Apply Task Filter,
      Author Interop Assemblies,
      Author Interface Descriptions,
      Set Build Order,
      Author Resx Files,
      Generate Visual Studio Solution,
      Update Project Metalang File

/TASKS specifies a comma-delimited list of the following tasks (iterate over list of all tasks for each migration unit)

       Validate Source,
       Build VB6, 
       Snapshot a Baseline, 
       Reset Task Status, 
       Run Translation, 
       Deploy Translation, 
       Build Translation,
       Run Functional Test

/REPORTS specifies a comma-delimited list of reports (See Reports Article for more information)

      Source Structure,
      Source References,
      Source Members,
      Source GUI Scan,
      Source Code Scan,
      Iceberg,
      Project Summary,
      Metrics Summary,
      Migration Set,
      Interface File Headers,
      Interface File ProgIds,
      Code Bundle Metrics,
      .NET Build Logs,
      Translation Logs,
      All Logs,
      Semantic References,
      Semantic Definitions,
      Semantic Symbols,
      Semantic Audit,
      Generate Visual Studio Solution,
      Migration Project List,
      Target Code Scan,

Note that tools are processed before tasks.

/IGNOREMRU: do not reload most recently used project

/LOGSTART: specify that startup diagnostics should be logged to a file. If filepath is blank, the file will be written to C:\Users\<NAME>\AppData\Roaming\GreatMigrations\gmstartup.*.log
