If I run a DXL script interactively I can do something like User usrCur = find() to find out who executes the script. If I run the same script in batch mode I get the message There is no current user I've been looking for a way to get the values of the switches (-user & -password) but did not find anything. Anybody got an idea what to do? I need this to check the user against the environment (different sets of clients may be executed only by certain users) DolfRiedel - Thu Jul 30 04:45:32 EDT 2015 |
Re: How can I fInd the current user in batch mode? Hi There is no current user and there is nothing you can change this. That is because you do not have a complete client. Some dxl-commands for example do not work in the batch mode. Try to use: hostname(); Best Regards Wolfgang |

I'm not looking for the hostname of the PC on which the DOORS client runs. I want to know the DOORS UserID, Account Name of the person who started the client with something like "doors.exe -d 36677@terra.X.com-user <USERNAME> -password <PWD> -batch <BATCHFILE.dxl>. In this case USERNAME. Gruss, Dolf |

Thanks - it's not quite documented however - I only find 2-3 references in the 9.6 DXL manual, all of them referring to usage of doorsname. |

You should find the username perm's documentation in the section 'Operating system commands' ... ;)

You can get EVERY commandline parameter from the environment - just prepend DOORS, e.g.:
getenv "DOORSUSER" // get batch username ... getenv "DOORSPASSWORD" // get plaintext password (sic!) getenv "DOORSADDINS" // get addins path if passed over the commandline getenv "DOORSBATCH" // get the current batch file ,,, Regards, Mathias |
