Command Line import

Post by Mark Jacober »

Hi,

Anyone know of a a way to do just the import portion of the build from the command line? (Special parameters to MadBuild, perhaps?)

Thanks,
Mark

I don't think there is a parameter that would do this. You can specifiy a target using -target

Code: Select all

madbuild -project "...projectLocation&Name" -target "...targetName"
So maybe if you link to the source, then put an invalid -target it would import correctly then fall over gracefully when trying to build the target? If that doesn't work, create a dummy target like PDF in Flare and build that using the command line, so your real target does not get overwritten.

Thanks, but its not currently possible to do just a command line import, The other way would to have a target that only outputs to one topic, but still imports everything.

The 'fake' target... perfect workaround. Thanks.
