Hi Xinyu, I guess you are asking about open BOY OPI files from command line. For that, you can input macros to the OPI files like this: Input Macros from command line When you startup css from command line, you can specify the OPI files you want to run and their macros input: css --launcher.openFile "<path_to_opi>/file1.opi macro1=value1, macro2=value2" "<path_to_opi2>/file2.opi" It also allows embedding [\ascii-code] in macros when inputting macros from command line. For example: css --launcher.openFile "<path_to_opi>/file1.opi macro1=A[\58]B, macro2=value2" "<path_to_opi2>/file2.opi" In above example, the value of macro1 is A:B. If there is already a CSS instance running, it will open the OPIs in the running CSS. The option --launcher.openFile is not necessary if following lines were added to css.ini: --launcher.defaultAction openFile Note1: For Linux GTK, ":" is not allowed in macros. Instead using [\58]. -vm /path to/libjvm.so You may able to find the path to libjvm.so by using command locate libjvm.so See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=331122 Thanks, > -----Original Message----- > From: Kasemir, Kay [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, February 27, 2012 9:07 AM > To: [email protected]; [email protected] > Subject: Re: Setting macro value from commandline > > Hi: > > You can set macros at these levels: > > 1.BOY Runtime Preference Setting (-pluginCustomization ...) > 2.User Preference settings (Menu Edit, Preferences, CSS Applications, > Display, BOY, OPI Runtime) > 3.Macro parameter of Action that opens the *.opi file > 4.Display *.opi file property "Macros" > 5.Grouping/Linking/Tabbed Container that wraps the widgets > > > Setting a macro within an Action overrides settings from > the user preferences. > Setting them within the Grouping container overrides > those from the Action and so on. > > > The first option is basically the command line: > > You can define any setting for CSS in a plugin customization file > that has the format > > # Comment > plugin.name/setting_name=value > > For example: > > # BOY Macros, format > # macro1,value1|macro2,"value 2"|macro3,"another value" > org.csstudio.opibuilder/macros=MyMacro1,"value 1"|MyOtherMacro,"Another > Value" > > > # EPICS Settings > org.csstudio.platform.libs.epics/addr_list=127.0.0.1 123.45.67.89 > > > > The format of the settings available for BOY > are in the file org.csstudio.opibuilder/preferences.ini. > The format of the settings available for EPICS Channel Access > are in the file org.csstudio.platform.libs.epics/preferences.ini. > The format of the settings for plugin ABC > should be in a file ABC//preferences.ini. > > > > > You put all those defaults that you want into a file > my_plugin_customization.ini > and then start CSS with the command-line option > > css -pluginCustomization /path/to/my_plugin_customization.ini > > See also chapter "Hierarchical Preferences" > in http://cs-studio.sourceforge.net/docbook/css_book.pdf > > Thanks, > -Kay > > > On 2/26/12 17:31 , "[email protected]" <[email protected]> wrote: > >Sorry, I mean how do you set macro values from the command line for > BOY. > >(I'm new to EPICS and BOY. ) > > > >Thanks > > > >Xinyu > > > >On 27/02/2012, at 4:22 AM, Eric Norum wrote: > > > >> When starting a soft IOC you can set the value of iocsh variables > from > >>shell environment variables using the epicsEnvSet iocsh command like > >>this: > >> > >> epicsEnvSet(KEITHLEY2400_ETHERNET, > >>"$(KEITHLEY2400_ETHERNET=164.54.49.10:4001)") > >> > >> > >> > >> So, if you start the IOC like this: > >> ./st.cmd > >> the iocsh KEITHLEY2400_ETHERNET variable will be set to > >>164.54.49.10:4001 > >> > >> but if you start the IOC like this: > >> KEITHLEY2400_ETHERNET=192.168.1.2 ./st.cmd > >> the iocsh KEITHLEY2400_ETHERNET variable will be set to 192.168.1.2 > >> > >> The '=' part to supply a default value can be omitted if you like. > >> > >> On Feb 26, 2012, at 2:20 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > >> > >>> Hi, > >>> > >>> The documentation seems to imply that you can set macro values from > >>>the command line.
