ARVExpo
Data export tool for ARV data files
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Syntax :
ARVExpo <destfile> [/1x] [/2y] [/3z] [/Tn] [/G] [/D] [/F] [/C<file>] [/Pp]
with x,y,z each being one character or empty.
<destfile> is the name of the text file to export the data to.
Any existing file with the same name will be overwritten.
Use /G, /D, /F to specify what to export.
Use /Px (x=0..9) to specify the partition to export. Consult ARV.DOK to
learn about partitions.
The ARVEXPO.EXE and ARV.EXE program version numbers should always be
the same, i.e. use the ARVEXPO.EXE which came together with you current
ARV version.
Data will be output alphabetically sorted, one record per line.
Text fields will be enclosed in "x" characters (default is x="), the
fields will be separated by "y" characters (default is y=,). Dates
will be enclosed in "z" characters (default is z empty).
The date format can be selected by setting n:
1 = TT.MM.JJ
2 = JJ.MM.TT
3 = 19JJMMTT (the preferred DBASE date format).
Default is n=3.
On /C, see below.
The default values are set so that the resulting files may be
read by DBASE using APPEND FROM <file> DELIMITED.
FIELDS being exported, one lines per record:
-------------------------------------------
Groups (/G) :
Name[40] Short[8] NrOfDisks GroupSizeInBytes
Disks (/D) :
Id[20] FreeSpaceInBytes Group[40] GroupShort[8] Drive[1] Storage[10]
CreatedOn[Date]
Dateien (/F) :
Name[12] Size Date[Date] Disk[10] Storage[10] Group[40]
GroupShort[8] Comment[79]
The field length is given in square brackets. All other fields, except
for date entries, are numeric values.
The ARVExpo control file (specified by /C<file>)
------------------------------------------------
By default, all records will be exported.
You may choose only to export files belonging to a certain group, or
groups containing some character string in their names. What to export,
has to be specified using a control file.
This control file has be have the file extension .AEC (ArvExpo Control).
Give the file name without this extension with the /C option.
Example:
Arvexpo arv.out /Ccontrol
will read control statements from control.aec.
Valid statements are (case is ignored)
EXPORTIERE G
EXPORTIERE D
EXPORTIERE F
- Specify what to export (same as /G, /D, /F)
TEXT_IN "x
- as /1x. The " is mandatory.
TRENNER "y
- as /2y. The " is mandatory.
DATUM_IN "z
- as /3z. Do not omit the ".
DATUM_TYP n
- as /Tn. n=1,2 or 3 (date export format).
GOHNE <Grp>{,<Grp>}
GMIT <Grp>{,<Grp>}
- records belonging to groups with short name <Grp> will not /
will be exported.
Examples:
gohne x-rated,mod,txt
gmit dbase
DOHNE <Dsk>{,<Dsk>}
DMIT <Dsk>{,<Dsk}
- records referencing to disks with id <Dsk> will not / will be
exported.
Examples:
dohne Mod 1,Mod 4
FOHNE <Fil>{,<Fil>}
FMIT <Fil>{,<Fil>}
- records referencing to files with the name <Fil> will not /
will be exported.
Examples:
FOHNE ABCDEF.TXT
FMIT STUFF.ARJ
Whenever <Grp>, <Dsk> or <Fil> ends with a *, it matches all values
beginning with the pattern <Grp>/<Dsk>/<Fil>.
Examples:
fohne story*
dohne mod*,xrated*
Special statements are
GOHNE ALLE which is the same as gohne *
GMIT ALLEN which is the same as gmit *
DOHNE ALLE which is the same as dohne *
DMIT ALLEN which is the same as dmit *
FOHNE ALLE which is the same as fohne *
FMIT ALLEN which is the same as fmit *
The control file is treated as if
GMIT ALLEN
DMIT ALLEN
FMIT ALLEN
is placed at the very top of it.
If you want only your MOD - disk data to be exported, the correct
statements are:
dohne alle
dmit mod*
i.e. you will have to exclude all disks then re-include the disks wanted.
Lines beginning with * or ; will be ignored.
ARVEXPO reads the ARV environment variable to determine where to
look for ARV data files.
Example:
SET ARV=c:\arv_zwo
ARVExpo will look for data files (.ARV) in c:\arv_zwo.
