Command Line Arguments - FalconFT/FalconDocs GitHub Wiki

Falcon.exe and others applications are now command-line-style parameters compatible. These arguments override the current user application configuration (defined in default.falconconfig file in %user%\AppData\Roaming\FalconFT\Falcon). This is common used to change the server and connection string options via command line, allowing to create different shortcuts pointing to different servers.

Example:

--server elsuper --integratedsecurity false --user debugger --password debugger --connecttimeout 3

Shortcut Example:

C:\FalconApp\Falcon.Client\bin\Debug\Falcon.exe --server elsuper
