The VECTO 3.x commandline tool can be used to start simulations from the command line and runs without graphical user interface. If multiple job-files are specified or a job-file contains multiple simulation runs (i.e., multiple cycles and/or loadings) these simulations are executed in parallel.
The VECTO 4.x commandline tool can be used to start simulations from the command line and runs without graphical user interface. If multiple job-files are specified or a job-file contains multiple simulation runs (i.e., multiple cycles and/or loadings) these simulations are executed in parallel.
### General Notes
- The order in which the arguments are provided is arbitrary.
- If a file path includes space characters (e.g. "C:\\VECTO Test Files\\Demo.vecto") then double quotes have to be used (as in the picture above).
- If not the complete file path is defined (e.g. "file1.vecto" instead of "c:\\data\\file1.vecto") then VECTO expects the file in the application directory (where vectocmd.exe is located).
- `ams` command arguments are not arbitrary and should follow the order specified.
- To avoid confirmation for running the simulation in `ams` command prepend yes or no to the tool execution as follows: `"yes"|vectocmd.exe [ARGUMENTS]`
### Basic usage
vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] FILE1.(vecto|xml) [FILE2.(vecto|xml) ...]
vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] [-q] FILE1.(vecto|xml) [FILE2.(vecto|xml) ...]
vectocmd.exe [-h] [-v] [-q] -ams PREVIOUS_STEP.xml CURRENT_STEP.xml OUTPUT.xml
### List of command line arguments
- FILE1.vecto [FILE2.vecto ...]: A list of vecto-job files (with the
extension: .vecto). At least one file must be given. Delimited by
whitespace.
