Title: Multiple parameters in a command line.
Question: A suggestion to use the command line.
Answer:
In many occasions, emerges the need of manipulating the commands lines of voluminous or multiple way that is to say things as:
Tester p1 fx k p p3 text.txt
To pass external parameters to our programs. Here I offer a suggestion that will make of this work something much light.
var
I: Integer;
Parameters: TStringList;
begin
Parameters := TStringList.Create;
try
for I := 1 to ParamCount do
Parameters.Add(ParamStr(i));
If (Parameters.IndexOf (p1)-1) and (Parameters.IndexOf (p3)-1) Then
//Your code here
finally
Parameters.Free;
end;
end;
This code chunk can be used from the Creates you of a Form or from the beginning of an console application.
NOTE. If you wish use this code from a console application, include CLASSES unit in then USES section.
I know that exists the FindCmdLineSwitch, but here shown not alone can be used in the recognition of commands lines, maybe to help in other tasks as be:
To order, to Modify, to Store commands in external files, the possibilities are many.
I wait that could serve to you.
