A profile can represent a full set of controls or any
subset of controls. Another useful way to modify profiles is to combine
profiles that represent a subset of controls using the artxmerge command.
You can use the artexmerge command to combine
one or more profiles into a single profile.
To combine profiles complete, the following steps:
- From the directory where the profiles are stored run the
following command:
artexmerge profile_name1.xml profile_name2.xml > new_profile_name.xml
- Run the following command to view the profile and verify
that it is a valid profile:
artexget new_profile_name.xml
Note: If the profiles you are combining have duplicate parameters,
the process of combining the profiles will fail. Alternatively, if
you use the -f flag, then the parameter values from the latest
profile are used.
