I am trying to automate the model publication as html. Following is what I am using,

A NANT script that calls (HTMLDocGenerator.bat)

```auto
<project default="run">
  <target name="run">
      <exec workingdir="C:\Program Files\VP Suite 3.0\scripts"  
                     basedir="C:\Program Files\VP Suite 3.0\scripts" 
	program="HTMLDocGenerator.bat">
          <arg value="C:\Work\Design\Threads\Thread.vpp" />
          <arg value="C:\Work\Design\publish" />
      </exec>
  </target>
</project>

```

HTMLDocGenerator.bat that looks like following,

```auto

..\jre\bin\java -Xms128m -Xmx512m -cp ".;..\lib\vpplatform.jar;..\lib\jniwrap.jar;..\lib\jhall.jar;
..\lib\vpuml-help.jar;..\lib\winpack.jar;..\lib\vpupdate.jar;

..\lib\lib06.jar;..\lib\lib07.jar;..\lib\lib08.jar;..\lib\lib09.jar;
..\lib\lib10.jar" RV -noui -project %1 -todir %2 generatehtml

```

And the vp.log looks like following,

```auto

[Wed Apr 25 11:12:02 EDT 2007] [message] [Wed Apr 25 11:12:02 EDT 2007]: Start Agilian Standard Edition [AG SE]: 1.0 (sp1_20070420)

[Wed Apr 25 11:12:15 EDT 2007] [warning] No JNI Library 8

```

Even when I use the “noui” options it shows the UI and it just launches this without generating any report.

Please help. !!! I need to make a purchase decision soon. I tired various other combinations playing around with various things; still no help.

I should be able to generate the html report automtically using a script.

thanks & regards,  
KV

Hello kverma,

Thank you for your post. I regret that the command line option is no longer available in the recent releases. Where do you find the instructions? I suppose the related content are removed in user’s guide already…

Best regards,

You can find this here:

[http://content.usa.visual-paradigm.com/media/documents/ag10ug/html/Ch04\_Generating\_Documentation/Ch04\_Generating\_Documentation.html](http://content.usa.visual-paradigm.com/media/documents/ag10ug/html/Ch04_Generating_Documentation/Ch04_Generating_Documentation.html)

in section Command Line HTML Report Generation

Also, the installation directory has sub directory ‘Scripts’ that clearly contains scripts to do that.

I was wondering why is that we don’t have commandline. Is it something that we decided to not include going forward or this is something that we haven’t done it yet?

I was wondering if we have any plans in the recent future to include the command line, if yes, how soon. Our team collaboration depends on this.

A quick reply will be greatly appreciated.

BTW; Tool agilian is great to use !!

thanks,

Hello kverma,

According to our current planning. We will support command line operations in VP Suite version 3.1. Will will support not only report generation, but also other functionalities like XMI and ORM, etc.

Hello kverma,

Welcome back.

We hope to release version 3.1 in June.

Just a clarification regarding this functionality will be included in Agillian tool or not? We don’t plan to buy the VP Suite just for this functionality. Thanks!

Hello kverma,

This functionality will be included in Agilian as well. To make it clear, this functionality will come with feature, but not with product.

Hi Kamal,

Sorry about this. We have revised our plan, and the command line feature will be rolled out not earlier than VP Suite 3.1 Service Pack 1.

Now that you mentioned that it will be supported sometime it is good. But it is causing us lot of grief when we have already purchased multiple licenses. Please help !

# When do you think version (3.1) will be released ?

Hi kverma,

VP Suite 3.1 Service Pack 1 has been released. It supports running operations through command lines. For more information about this feature, please read:  
[http://resource.visual-paradigm.com/vpsuite3.1sp1/command-line-operations.html](http://resource.visual-paradigm.com/vpsuite3.1sp1/command-line-operations.html)

If you are running VP Suite 3.1, you can advance to Service Pack 1 by running the Updater inside the bin folder of VP Suite installation directory.

Best regards,  
Jick
