Command Line Processing

Previous Chapter Next Chapter Table of Contents


What happens by default?

The default command line interface provided by Eli assumes that the generated processor will have one input file and no options.

A processor proc generated with the default command line interface can be invoked in the following ways:

proc
No options or input files. Input is assumed to come from standard input.
proc input
No options, one input file. Input comes from input.
Any other way
Signalled as an error.

The default behaviour is achieved using the following command line specification:

InputFile input "File to be processed";
see Specifying the command line interface, for details on the specification language.
