Starting Rational DOORS from the command line
If you start Rational® DOORS® from the command line, you can use switches to override the registry settings.
Procedure
- Open a command prompt and go to the bin directory of your Rational DOORS installation.
- To run Rational
DOORS, type doors, followed by the switches
that you want to use. See the related concepts links for more information about available startup
switches. For example, the following command starts Rational DOORS and opens the Car project in the database explorer:
C:\> cd "c:\program files\IBM\Rational\DOORS\9.version\bin" C:\> doors -project Car
Note: Replace 9.version with your installed version of Rational DOORS. There is a space between the switch (-project) and the parameter (Car).If the parameter contains a space, enclose it in quotation marks.C:\> cd "c:\program files\IBM\Rational\DOORS\9.version\bin" C:\> doors -project "My project"
If the parameter is a path that contains any spaces, enclose the full path in quotation marks:C:\> cd "c:\program files\IBM\Rational\DOORS\9.version\bin"
