The syntax for this command is as follows:
ADDSYS --NAME=<system name>-- USER=<usercode>--PACK=<pack>
This command allows the creation of a System entry in the Application Builder tables. All three arguments are mandatory. The entered <usercode> as well as the <pack> is validated.
This command is used in conjunction with the ADDREP command to manually define a system and its reports using identical properties of an existing system that resides on another version of Application Builder.
This is mainly used in a development environment. It is used in conjunction with GENERATESYS to compare the generated code for an application that was originally deployed on a different Application Builder version.
Note: Creating an identical system entry on another Application Builder server allows the existing system to re-generate (using the Runtime Software associated with this Application Builder) without having to generate and deploy (REBUILD) from the Client. However, the system entry added must have the identical name, usercode and dictionary pack details as the original client generated system. This is valuable whilst verifying new releases of AB Suite runtime software without having to generate and deploy from the Client (especially for large applications).
Refer GENERATESYS command for more information on initiating manual generates.
Refer RESET command for more information on tailoring the system generate settings.
Refer ADDREP command for more information on manually defining report entries for a nominated system.
