13.2 The streamline command
The streamline command has three different modes that enable you to use most features of
Streamline outside of the DS-5 for Eclipse user interface.
13.2.1 Syntax
streamline <mode> [options] <file...>
13.2.2 streamline command modes
Use any of the following modes directly after
streamline on the command line:
-capture This mode initiates a capture session. You must enter a valid session.xml file with
the capture mode declaration. The
session.xml file defines your target hardware
and the parameters of the capture session. For example:
streamline -capture session.xml
To create a session.xml file, enter your settings and then use the Export... option
in the Capture Options dialog box within DS-5 for Eclipse. For instructions on
how to create a
session.xml file manually, see Capturing data on your target on
page 11-2.
-analyze Use this mode to analyze existing Capture Data. You must enter a valid .apc
capture file after
-analyze . For example:
streamline -analyze threads_001.apc
For more information on the analyze feature, see Using Stored Streamline
Capture Data to create new Streamline Analysis Reports on page 11-9.
-report This mode reads data from an analysis report and outputs it your console. You can
use options to define how that data appears in the console or define an output file
to store the data to disk. You must enter a valid .apd file after the declaration of
report mode.
streamline -report threads_001_001.apd

-h, -?, -help
Outputs help information to the console, listing each mode and option as well as
the required syntax.
