EMBEDINI Utility

The EMBEDINI utility places the client configuration file within the client executable file. This packaging of the configuration file allows simple distribution of a single, preconfigured executable. This packaging also increases security since the configuration information is not available to user. The format of the utility is:

embedini [[-e ]{exefile}] [[-i ]{inifile}] [-h|-?|-a]

Where:

exefile

The optional name of the PL/B Client executable file in which the configuration information will be embedded.

inifile

The optional name of the PL/B Client configuration file to be embedded.

h or ?

An option to display the command line syntax.

a

An option to write the ini file as unencrypted ASCII data.

Note the following:

1.   The default executable file name {exefile} is PLBCLIENT.EXE.

2.   The default configuration file name {ininame} is PLBCLIENT.INI.

3.   The size of the data to be embedded is limited to 4080 bytes.
