Startup Command-Line Options

Startup command-line options are special tool options that are specified at tool startup, that is while launching the tool. They cannot be specified interactively.

Some of these options open special dialog boxes, such as the Configuration and Message dialog boxes, for a build tool.

The following table lists the Startup command-line options and their description:
