-LOG texport option

The log (-LOG) option of the texport utility command is used to enable logging. The log file will be produced showing the result of the exported schema. (-LOG) has an optional parameter to specify the location or file name, or both, for the texport log file. The default file name for the texport log will be schema_file_name.log. The default location for the texport log will be the directory where the schema file is located.

The file name or the location parameter, if specified with the (-LOG) option of the texport utility command, could be the name of the directory where the texport log file will be written, the full file path specification in which a wildcard can be used to represent the schema file, or the full path in which the complete filename can be specified. If the . is specified with the (-LOG) option, the texport log will be written to the default location (directory where the schema file is located) using the default naming convention. If a wildcard is specified in the full path, for example, texport myschema.mtt -LOG C:\MyDev\ExportResults\2002-02-28_*.results, the texport log file will be produced in the C:\MyDev\ExportResults directory with the 2002-02-28_myschema.results naming convention. If the complete file name is specified, for example, texport myschema.mtt -LOG C:\MyDev\ExportResults\myschema_results.txt, the myschema_results.txt will be produced in the C:\MyDev\ExportResults directory.

If the texport utility command is unable to create the texport log file, the exporting schema will terminate, and the Fatal error - Could not start exporting the schema, unable to create the log file fatal error message will display on the console. If nothing is specified in the command line for the log, by default, the command line assumes the ( -LOG) option is included in the command line, and writes the log messages to the console.
