Command line argument passing to the tpl.

Hi,

Is there any way to initialise a variable in the tpl through command line ?

i am using below command to pass variable and read the value in the tpl , but it's not working...

/apps/iw-home/bin/iwpt_compile.ipl -pt /default/main/Practice/en-US/WORKAREA/en-US/templatedata/Practice/Poll/presentation/Poll.tpl -iw_pt-arg en-US

reading the value using
$aa = TeamSite: Smiley Tongue

T::iw_xml::get_flag_param('-iw_pt-arg');

print "passed var value= $aa\n";

but it's not working.. could some one please guide me here.

Although I believe I know what you did wrong - for the benefit of the forum you should post the resolution - and then close the thread.

Sure Ghoti..

This is how we can pass to iwpt_compile.ipl and read the passed argument in the tpl.

/apps/iw-home/bin/iwpt_compile.ipl -pt /default/main/Practice/en-US/WORKAREA/en-US/templatedata/BeingGirl/Poll/presentation/Poll.tpl -iw_pt-dcr /default/main/Practice/en-US/WORKAREA/en-US/templatedata/Practice/Poll/data/Poll-DD.xml -iw_pt-locale en-US

here "iw_pt-locale" is a command line flag which i am passing and it's associated value is 'en-US'

This value can be read using the below fuction in your tpl

$value = iwpt_get_flag_param('iw_pt-locale');

print "$value\n"; # this will print en-US

Like wise , we can pass arguments in the command line and can be read using iwpt_get_flag_param($flag) function by accesing the specific flag.
