The command lines are used to perform operations without
opening the graphical interface of Rational Programming Pattern for
System z. Then, you can import or generate entities from the command
lines, copy the COBOL source into a destination project and folder,
create zComponent projects and folders or dispatch Macros for example.
The batch command is available in the RPP folder
of the Rational Developer for System z root installation directory
under the name rpp.bat. You can also use lrpp.bat with
the daemon to launch the commands.

For each command, you must comply with the
