6.66. Parameter --target-directory

[--target/-q]

The parameter--target-directory determines the directory for the data and output files.setzt das aktuelle Arbeitsverzeichnis, in dem CIB merge die übergebenen Dateien sucht.


Syntax
--target-directory=<Verzeichnis>


Description

In addition to the directory for the data and output files --target-directory, the --source-directory parameter can be used to specify a path where the root block and further RTF blocks can be searched.

--source-directory is relative to --target-directory, but can also be specified absolutely. So for multithreaded applications the same input directory --source-directory but different output/logdirectories --target-directory can be specified for each thread.


Example
--target-directory=csv
--datafile=multi.csv
--outputfile=!..\result\Kontenuebersicht.rtf

Here --target-directory is used to specify the directory for the CSV files, the output directory is set directly with --outputfile. Without explicit path specification with --outputfile, the result would also be written to --target-directory. The usage of the parameter is illustrated in the example Templates.

Note:

--target directory always sets the same --source directory, if --target directory comes after --source directory, the --source directory is overwritten.
