- In the following example we are using the D'Bridge mailer and the internal
- D'Bridge file transmision utility, DButil. You may use any mailer and
- substitute the appropriate file transmission utility in place of DButil.
- For instance any reference to DButil may be replaced by Xrobot, a file
- transmission utility most often used with the Front Door mailer. Consult your
- mailer and file transfer utility documentation for the appropriate commands.
-
- The example batch file provided below should be called each night from your
- event batch file and need be run only once a day. You may run it more than
- once however, version 3.0 of Classified Ads will mark each Ad and message
- as exported, the first time and will not resend the ads unless you have
- removed the export flag via the provided CLMaint utility. The only advantage
- to running this batch file more than once a day is when adding a new member
- to your Classified Ads network.
-
-
- This example batch file will work for both hubs and net members however, the
- net members will need only to send to the one address used by their hub.
-
- @echo off
-
- Rem *** Change directory to your mailer's inbound files directory.
-
- cd\db\files
-
- Rem *** Copy the Classified Ads files (exports from other systems) into your
- Rem *** Classified Ads directory. Please NOTE the "*" wildcard is mandatory
- Rem *** as the exchange program will add a random number to the end of the
- Rem *** name you have specified in your configuration file. This was done to
- REM *** prevent accidental mailer overwrites or rejections.
-
- copy *.axp I:\ra\doors\classb1
- copy *.mxp i:\ra\doors\classb1
-
- Rem *** Delete the files from your mailer directory, this is optional but does
- Rem *** keep the directory cleaner. Also, if you have a Move utility you may
- Rem *** use that (make sure it's in your path) to perform the copy and delete
- Rem *** in one step.
-
- del *.axp
- del *.mxp
-
- Rem *** Change directory to your Classified Ads directory.
-
- cd\ra\doors\classb1
-
- Rem *** Run the Cl-Exchange program with the IMPort/EXPort option to import
- Rem *** the files, and create your export. A quick review of the documentation
- Rem *** provided with Classified Ads will show you that you may also run an
- Rem *** import and/or an export separately, just substitute the appropriate
- Rem *** command.
-
- clexch IMPEXP classb11.cfg
-
- Rem *** Now copy (or move) the export Ad and message files you have just
- Rem *** created to your mailers outbound file area.
- Rem *** (D'Bridge uses the same area for inbound and outbound.)
- Rem *** Once again NOTE the "*" wildcard is very inportant.
-
- copy wit*.axp i:\db\files
- copy wit*.mxp i:\db\files
-
- Rem *** Change directory and execute your file transmission utility. D'Bridge
- Rem *** requires your utility to be run from the D'Bridge directory but, others
- Rem *** such as Xrobot may be pathed or kept in a separate directory. Please
- Rem *** consult your file transmission utility documentation.
