If arguments are passed into a program, shell script, or .bat file, the -exitdata argument must be enclosed in double quotes if the FTF command line program is used.
For example, consider the following Windows .bat file called arg.bat, which takes 2 command line arguments:
rem displays arguments passed in echo the name of this bat file is: %0 echo the value of argument 1 is %1 echo the value of argument 2 is %2
If you are using the XMOSYSPM System Call Exit to submit the request, then the following command line can be used:
C:\\>ftf -sqm MYQMGR -dqm MYQMGR -spath c:\\spath\\test.file -dpath c:\\temp\\test.file -exit 5 -exitdll xmosyspm -exitentry xmoSysCall -exitqm MYQMGR -exitdata "c:\\arg.bat test1 test2" -wait 10 FTF Request completed successfully (27cf55bc-00e4-4bae-a1bd-f914ce719885), time=2 secs!
