In inbound processing, the location of the input application file is specified in the generated map file. The location of the input application file can be overridden at runtime by entering a different fully qualified path and file name with the optional -ei switch/parameter. (In ECMap, this information is entered as the Substitute Output Filename and the Substitute User File Directory on the Option 2 tab of the Run Inbound Map screen.)
Output application data can be written to stdout – instead of to disk – using the -mo switch at runtime. (In ECMap, this information is entered in the Standard Output pane on the I/O Redirect tab of the Run Inbound Map screen.)
Output application data can be written to a specified memory address, instead of to 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 Inbound Map screen.)
By default, output application data is appended to the existing data in the application file at runtime. To overwrite the output data in the application data file instead of appending it, use the -w switch at runtime.
