Initialization File (-ininame)

Use Initialization File (-ininame) to specify the location, in the registry, for the application's initialization information.

Operating system and syntax Windows -ininame name
Use with Maximum value Minimum value Single-user default Multi-user default
Client Session — — — —
name
Name of the initialization registry subkey or the application's initialization (.INI) file.

When the Registry Base Key (-basekey) parameter is not specified at startup, the AVM searches the HKEY_CURRENT_USER key followed by the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key for the specified name. If no registry key of the specified name is found, the AVM searches for a .INI file that matches name.

You can only use this startup parameter at the command line. It is ignored when used in a .pf file.

Note: The -ininame parameter replaces the -name option for the Windows Attributes (-Wa) parameter, which existed in previous versions of OpenEdge.
