SSLogin

See Also

SSLogin.exe is used by integration scripts and macros to find the user's username, and optionally to get .INI file and current project information for that user.  If you are running SS.exe, SSLogin.exe can also be used to set the logon name stored by SS.exe.

Syntax

SSLOGIN [-exitcode] [-E] [-Ofilename] [username] [password]

The following table describes command-line options available with this command.

Option Description
-exitcode Displays a line of the format "Exit code: 0" so that calling programs can determine if SSLogin.exe ran successfully.  A zero indicates SSLogin.exe ran successfully; anything else indicates it did not.
-E Displays the user's current project and path to their .ini file in addition to the username.
-Ofilename Output the information to the specified file instead of to the screen.
username Shows information for the specified user.  If the user does not exist, a non-zero exit code is displayed.  If no username is specified, the current VSS user is used.  If SS.exe is running, specifying a username passes that username to SS.exe, effectively logging in a new user.
password Validates the user.
