6195.0. "Can MCC produce a usable NCL script?" by WELTM1::CRIDDLE (Graham Criddle, MCS Tech Consultant, 853-4015) Thu Dec 15 1994 05:45

Hi.

Is there any mechanism within MCC to 'dump' the characteristics associated
with a component (such as the Routing Circuit of a NODE entity) in such a
way that this could be used as the basis for an NCL script to be used at
system boot time?

Yes.
6195.2And here is a way to do it...SCCA::DaveWhen i awakened this morning, I was filled with despair.Mon Dec 19 1994 08:306
Now that your question was answered, I'll bet you next one is "How?".

From command line (aka FCL) use a "To File" argument, and the results
of the operation will go to a file on the disk.  Then its a simple matter
of parsing that file to build the commands you want to execute based
on the results.

Hi, Dave.

Thanks for the replies.

Let's refine this a bit further.

Does MCC have the capability to do this without me having to do any parsing
so that I can simply execute a command from within MCC which will produce
an NCL script?

(I appreciate it won't be able to give me information about write-only
attributes, but I can live with that)

No, because MCC has no idea what you would want to do.

Do you mean a NCL script that would show the same things?
Or an NCL script that would set up some, but not all parameters?
Sounds like what you want is a real AI AI AI application.

This sounds like a great chance to sell some customization services.
