Outbound processing (application data is the input of the map)

  1. In outbound processing, the location of the output application file is specified in the generated map file. The location of the output application file can be overridden at runtime by entering the fully qualified path to the substitute file name with the optional -eo switch/parameter. (In ECMap, this information is entered as the Substitute Input Filename and the Substitute User File Directory on the Option 2 tab of the Run Outbound Map screen.)

  2. Input application data can be read from stdin – instead of from disk – using the -mi switch at runtime. (In ECMap, this information is entered in the Standard Input pane on the I/O Redirect tab of the Run Outbound Map screen.)

  3. Input application data can be read from a specified memory address – instead of from disk – using the -mp switch at runtime. (In ECMap, this information is entered in the Internal Memory pane on the I/O Redirect tab of the Run Outbound Map screen.)
