Values

Can be a project or a file. The value must follow the parameter letter with a space between them.

If there is a space in any command parameter value, the value must be surrounded by double quotes. For example (for Windows Command Line):

SCMSCmd GetFileInfo -server 127.0.0.1 -port 8787 -username test -pwd test -tempdir D:\temp -teamproject SCMS -folder $/123 -file "Text 1.txt"

In almost all cases where you can specify an item to act on, you can also specify many items by adding "/" between them. For example (for Windows Command Line):

SCMSCmd AddFile -server 127.0.0.1 -port 8787 -username test -pwd test -tempdir D:\temp -teamproject SCMS -folder $/123 -file Hello.txt/Test.txt

Dynamsoft SCM Anywhere Command Line Client provides an interactive shell for your convenience.

SCMSCmd Interactive -server demo.Dynamsoft.com -port 8787 -username test -pwd test -teamproject "Dynamsoft SCM Anywhere" -tempdir D:\temp

Now you are in the interactive shell. When you use other commands, the parameters -server, -port, -username, -pwd, -teamproject are not required. Take the Add File Command for example,

AddFile -file "test.txt" -folder $/123

Type 'quit' to exit interactive shell.
