Command Line Interface

Overview

The LMF also provides Command Line Interface (CLI) capability.

Activate the CLI by clicking on a shortcut icon on the desktop. The CLI

cannot be launched from the GUI, only from the desktop icon.

Both the GUI and the CLI use a program known as the handler. Only one

handler can be running at one time. Due to architectural limitations, the

GUI must be started before the CLI if it is desired that the GUI and CLI

to use the same handler. When the CLI is launched after the GUI, the

CLI automatically finds and uses an in–progress login session with a

BTS initiated under the GUI. This allows the use of the GUI and the CLI

in the same BTS login session. If a CLI handler is already running when

the GUI is launched (this happens if the CLI window is already running

when the user starts the GUI, or if another copy of the GUI is already

running when the user starts the GUI), a dialog window displays the

following warning message:

The CLI handler is already running.

This may cause conflicts with the LMF.
