10 Command line operations
This chapter describes the ways to start instances of
MetaEdit+ by utilizing the command line operations: parameters and string
functions. The main intention of command line operations is to support MetaEdit+
working as part of an automated build or maintenance. The basic pattern for such
tasks is to first login to MetaEdit+, execute a set of commands (e.g. running
generators) and then logout. While a few command line parameters are available
in the Modeler version of MetaEdit+, most of them require the API or Workbench
version.
