The Habanero Client supports a number of useful modes and configuration options through command line parameters. These command line parameters include:

• -web
  The -web switch provides a way to connect to Habanero sessions and replay recorded sessions from a web page.    For example:
  java Habanero -web

   
  

• -listen <port_number>
  The -listen argument allows you to define the port number that Habanero will use to listen for data. If -listen is not defined the client defaults to port 3000.    For example:
  java Habanero -listen 2112

   
  

• -local <directory/path> The -local option provides you a way to keep a personalized version or multiple versions of the Habanero resource directory. This is especially useful if you are working on an NT system with multiple users or you would like to keep multiple habanero.rsc/* data sets.

  Configuring the Habanero environment for multiple users under Windows NT involves:

  1. copy the habanero.rsc directory to your personal directory

     c:\windows\profiles\smith\personal\habanero.rsc

  2. make copies of the habanero.bat and habaneroServer.bat files.

  3. edit the batch files and add the -local switch and the path to your copy of the habanero.rsc directory.

     java Habanero -local c:\windows\profiles\smith\personal\habanero.rsc

  4. create shortcuts to these new batch files for your desktop.

  Configuring the environment for multiple personalities involves repeating the above steps in multiple directories and editing the batch files or scripts to reflect the path changes.
  
  

  A Unix script command line example may look like:

  java Habanero -local ~smith/Mr.Hyde/habanero.rsc

   
  

• -debug
  The -debug switch generates debug data to standard out which is typically the terminal window unless you have redirected the output to files. For example:
  
  java Habanero -debug

  In this case, standard output will be written to the file server.out and standard error will be written to serverError.out.

  java Habanero -debug >server.out 2>serverError.out

   
  Note: Unhandled exceptions are generated to stardard error. If you do not use 2> to redirect stardard error the data will be lost.
