TProcessUTF8.ParseCmdLine procedure
Separates values in the CommandLine argument into the Executable and Parameters properties.
Declaration
procedure ParseCmdLine(const CmdLine: string;
ReadBackslash: Boolean=False)Arguments
CmdLine | Command line examined and parsed in the method. |
ReadBackslash | When True, the BackSlash character is used to quote character values. |
Description
ParseCmdLine is used to separate the values in the CmdLine
argument into the values used for the Executable and Parameters properties.
ReadBackSlash indicates if the
BackSlash character
(
\) is used to quote a character value in the command line. The
default value for the argument is
False.
ParseCmdLine creates an internal TStringList instance used to
store values returned from the SplitCmdLineParams routine in
lazfileutils.pas. The first value in the string list (when
present) is stored in the Executable property. The remaining
values are stored in the Parameters property.
ParseCmdLine is provided as a convenience method. The same result can be achieved by setting the values in the Executable and Parameters properties directly.
