Command Line Syntax

The command line syntax for executing Dynamic Import and Dynamic Import options are described in this section.

Executing Dynamic Import from the command line is easier if your PATH variable includes the path to the Perl executable. To add the PATH, note:

Operating SystemHow to add to the PATH variable
WindowsAdd to the PATH variable in the System Properties window:
  1. Right-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop.
  2. Select Properties from the drop down menu.
  3. Click the Environment tab.
  4. Select Path from the System Variables list.
  5. Add the path for the Perl executable in the Value field.
  6. Click Set then OK.
UNIXAdd to the PATH variable in the pcm.cshrc file:
  1. Go to the Contenta_home/bin directory. This directory is under the Contenta root directory—for example: cd /usr/app/Contenta/bin
  2. Open the pcm.cshrc file for edit.
  3. Locate the section title PATH (see below for sample). Add the path to the Perl executable to the PATH.
  4. Save and close the file.
