Using the Command Line Utility
The command line utility administers Creo Packages commands and arguments for creating packages of Creo Parametric files to be shared from a source PLM system to one or more target PLM systems where Creo Parametric and Creo Packages are installed.
The command line utility is implemented as a combination of argument and variables. It can be used for automatic import scenarios where a script contains one or more command line arguments, or to perform a specific action at the command line, typically by a Creo Parametric user.
The following table contains essential commands for the command line utility:
Command Name
Description
WPCImport
Initiates the import of a package that accepts arguments and values.
WPCView
Initiates package viewer and takes one package name as input.
WPCDelete
Deletes the temporary Creo Packages workspaces that remain in Windchill, if WPCExport fails.
WPCProEShutdown
Disconnects the Creo Parametric session.
Rules
The following rules govern command line entries in Creo Packages:
• The command line is case sensitive, except when specifying a location.
• If a string contains a space or any special characters (for example, commas), enclose the string in quotation marks. For example, if the folder name is test folder, then it is presented as:
“test folder”
• All directory paths can be either absolute or relative.
• If multiple values are allowed, use a comma (,) to separate them.
* 
Some objects, such as the Windchill baseline, allow a comma in a name. In this instance, use the backslash escape character (\) to distinguish the comma from the multivalue separator.
• The prefixes used in the wpc_preferences.txt file are the following:
◦ %o—Indicates what operation is being performed. Values can be export or import.
◦ %u—The username for Creo Packages.
• The directory separator is platform-specific. On Windows the indicator is two slashes (\\) when specifying the paths for a recipe file location or a command line argument location. You can also use the syntax ${dir.sep} as a directory separator. When ${dir.sep} is used in wpc_preferences.txt, $ is replaced with \\. The \\ and the ${dir.sep}separators can be used in combination. For example:
#export.default.recipefile=c:\\ptc\\wpc${dir.sep}recipes\
\defaultRecipeFile.rcp
• Conflict resolution is specified as the following:
conflict.<ConflictType>=<ResolutionType>
There can be multiple resolution type values. The conflict type can have keywords assigned.
In this example, OVERRIDE_FIRST_ITERATION is the conflict type and INCLUDE is the resolution type. Multiple values for OVERRIDE_FIRST_ITERATION could be INCLUDE, SKIP, USE_LATEST_ON-PREVIOUS.
## Possible resolutions for OVERRIDE_FIRST_ITERATIONS CONFLICT
ARE include, skip, use_latest_on_previous

# conflict.OVERRIDE_FIRST_ITERATION=INCLUDE
WPCDelete Utility
This utility is applicable to Windchill PDMLink users.
Creo Packages creates temporary workspaces for users during a WPCExport operation. If the WPCExport does complete successfully, or if an abnormal condition arises, this utility deletes any temporary workspaces created by Creo Packages.
* 
Before running the WPCDelete utility, ensure that no other session is running on the machine, as it also deletes the Creo Packages workspace created in the other session.
Perform the following steps to run the WPCDelete utility.
1. From the command prompt, go to the %WPC_HOME%\bin directory.
2. Execute WPCDeleteWS.bat -<user> -<password>
3. A success or warning messages appears with the appropriate user action.
WPCProEShutdown Utility
Creo Packages allows Creo Parametric to run in shared mode. When Creo Parametric is shared, the Creo Packages client uses the available session, instead of creating a new session. A shared connection can be between two or more Creo Parametric users on the same client installation.
Perform the following steps to shut down the shared connections:
1. From the command prompt, go to the %WPC_HOME%\bin directory.
2. Execute WPCProEShutdown.bat -<user> -<password>
3. A success or warning messages appears with the appropriate user action.
