Using a Response File

You can provide part or all of the command-line input in a response file, which is a text file that contains options and/or filenames.

Specify the response file using the following syntax:

BSCMAKE @responsefile

This syntax applies to all forms of BSCMAKE; you can specify BSCMAKE or BSCMAKEV in the first position on the command line. Only one response file is allowed. You can specify a path with responsefile. Precede the filename with an at sign (@). BSCMAKE does not assume an extension. You can specify additional sbrfiles on the command line after responsefile. If you use /r, you must specify it on the command line before the response file.

In the response file, specify the input to BSCMAKE in the same order as you would on the command line. Separate the command-line arguments with one or more spaces, tabs, or newline characters.

Example

The following command calls BSCMAKE using a response file:

BSCMAKE @prog1.txt
