Using a Configuration File
When generating a report from the command line, FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications Reporting obtains report configuration information from the command line explicitly, from a plain-text configuration file (available from SAMreport, or manually entered into a text file), or both.
Command-line parameters read directly from the configuration file are indistinguishable from parameters found on the command line, with the exception of specifying a feature name. (See the following section, Specifying Feature Names in Configuration Files, for information.) If conflicting values for an parameters are specified, the last value specified is applied.
Configuration files can be nested, and multiple configuration files can be specified on the command line. The paths to configuration files must not contain spaces.
Specify a configuration file by typing the following command:
—config config_filename
