Command line arguments
You may have the following command line arguments when you run Treemap.
- -i input file
- input file can be either a data input file (.tm3/.xml)
or a .tms file. If it is a .tms file, the corresponding
data input file must be located in the same directory
as the .tms file.
Treemap will open this file as soon as it starts up.
Example:
java -jar treemap.jar -i census.tm3
- -n node to highlight
- If this argument is used, -i input file has
to be used, too.
On the opened input file, the node with the
label node to highlight will be highlighted.
(If the label is not unique, the first one
found will be highlighted.)
Example:
java -jar treemap.jar -i election.tm3
-n Maryland
- -d directory
- You give the directory to map as an argument such as
C:\Temp. If you use this argument, you cannot
use -i input file. Or else, this argument
will be ignored and input file will be
opened instead.
Example:
java -jar treemap.jar -d C:\Temp
- -f feature set
- You give the name of the feature set you want.
When Treemap starts up, only the selected features in
feature set will be present.
Example:
java -jar treemap.jar -f expert
These command line arguments can be used together in any order
as long as they satisfy the conditions discussed above. The same
kind of command line argument should not be provided again as in
java -jar treemap.jar -i election.tm3 -i census.tm3.
Or else, the last command line argument will be used and the
earlier ones (of the same kind) will be all ignored.
You can edit run.bat and add the command line arguments there
to avoid typing the command line arguments
every time you run Treemap, especially if you happen to use
the same arguments frequently.
