Using Remote Graphics Software

Setting Properties on the Command Line

In addition to setting properties in a configuration file, properties can be set on the command line. Properties entered on the command line override all properties set in a configuration file. All properties must begin with a "-" on the command line to be recognized as a valid property. For example:

rgreceiver.sh -Rgreceiver.Network.Timeout.Warning=10000

will starts the RGS Receiver with the Rgreceiver.Network.Timeout.Warning property set to 10000 milliseconds. If any property is set more than once on the command line, the value of the last entry is used. There cannot be any whitespace between the property name, the "=" character, and the property value. The following example:

rgreceiver.sh -Rgreceiver.IsSnap = 1

is invalid, due to the whitespace on either side of the "=" character.

Properties of type string vector and int vector cannot be set on the command line.

RGS Receiver Properties

All of the following properties are used by the RGS Receiver, and available on the command line or using the RGS Receiver property configuration file (rgreceiverconfig).

All RGS Receiver properties are automatically saved away in a "Properties Archive" when the receiver exits. They are used again with the next invocation of the receiver.
