Automating the client connection with the CaseMap Server
Contents
Using command line parameters, you can automate the log on process for CaseMap and TextMap when using Windows Authentication. The command line setup can also be used in conjunction with the option to open SQL cases. See Opening SQL cases from the command line.
When the automatic logon option is specified, the client applications will display a Connect to CaseMap Server dialog box. If the logon succeeds, an attempt is made to open a SQL case if the "SQLCaseName" and "SQLCaseID" parameters are specified, otherwise a Browse for SQL Cases dialog box displays for the user to select which assigned case to open.
If the user's CaseMap or TextMap client application is not in SQL mode or if there are no registered CaseMap Servers, the user will not be able to connect.
If there is more than one registered CaseMap Server, then an attempt is made to use the last used server. If there is no last used server, an attempt is made to use the first server listed in alphabetical order.
The following command line parameters facilitate Windows authentication for log on to the CaseMap Server.
CaseMap "[PATH]\CaseMap.exe" /AutoLogOn To use this parameter in conjunction with the "SQLCaseName" or "SQLCaseID" parameters, use the following: "[PATH]\CaseMap.exe" /SQLCaseName "[SQL_CASE_NAME]" /AutoLogOn "[PATH]\CaseMap.exe" /SQLCaseID "[SQL_CASE_ID]" /AutoLogOn
TextMap "[PATH]\TextMap.exe" /AutoLogOn
To use this parameter in conjunction with the "SQLCaseName" or "SQLCaseID" parameters, use the following: "[PATH]\TextMap.exe" /SQLCaseName "[SQL_CASE_NAME]" /AutoLogOn "[PATH]\TextMap.exe" /SQLCaseID "[SQL_CASE_ID]" /AutoLogOn |
