Difficult to tell without any code but is your GUI supplying you with attributes which you're not picking up when in batch mode?

BatchMode does not automatically include many standard include files that deal with GUI, since there is no GUI in batchmode.  In this case I cannot find the include file that has function "ModifyRangedAttrType_" defined; no doubt it is encrypted.

Now I'm supposing that your batch program does not in fact actually modify a ranged value of an attrtype.  So, you can simply stub the missing function, which I suspect looks like this:

void ModifyRangedAttrType_(AttrType at, string Name, AttrBaseType abt, string sMin, string sMax, string Report){}

If we cannot make that work, there will be three other unpleasant options. [1] do not use copyops.inc and write your own copy function [2] find the offending #include file via trial and error.  [3] make your own copy of "copyops.inc" and comment out that line of code.

Hello EHcnck,

could you resolve the issue? 

I think that I'm facing the same problem.

Regards,

Antonio.

I had to use -dxl since I was working with data that need to be visible, such as views, etc.

This is a late response and most likely no longer relevant, but I assume you are doing a:
#include<lib\dxl\utils\copyops.inc> somewhere.

Before you include copyops.inc, you need to include storedGlobals.inc

You might end up with something like:

string dHome = (string getenv("DOORSHOME"))
string copyOpsInc = dHome "lib\\dxl\\utils\\copyops.inc"
string storedGlobalsInc = dHome "lib\\dxl\\standard\\column\\storedGlobals.inc"
eval_("#include <"storedGlobalsInc">
#include <"copyOpsInc">
#include <"Whatever your script is">)
exit_()

You can then do batch mode with that.
