source Command—Execute Commands from a File

Valid in all environments

The source command allows you to execute one or more selang commands that have been placed in a file. CA Access Control reads the specified file, executes the commands, and returns a selang prompt. Any user defined in the database can use this command.

This command is like the source command in csh and tcsh in UNIX.

This command has the following format:

source fileName

fileName

Specifies the name of the file that contains the selang commands.

Example

The user admin wants to execute the commands in the file called initf1. The user enters the following command:

source initf1
