This command-line executable provides an easy way to execute the templates of the SendCommand function from different environments
SendCommand function allows operations to be performed, using a standard template in XML and JSON format, synchronously or asynchronously.
For example, lksendcommand can be used from a Windows .bat file or from a BASIC Program, to access data from a remote MV database.
On Windows the syntax is: lksendcommand.exe [options]
On Linux and macOS the syntax is ./lksendcommand [options]

In the demo /lksendcommand folder there are script examples and command files that execute them so you can try some Linkar functions.
In Windows, see script demo_lksendcommand.cmd, which must be modified with local credentials before execution.
@ECHO OFF
SET host=127.0.0.1
SET entrypoint=E1
SET epport=11500
SET user=admin
SET pass=admin
SET freetext="From lksendcommand"
SET encoding=""
lksendcommand.exe /F:XML/New-None.xml /U:%user% /W:%pass% /H:%host% /P:%epport% /E:%entrypoint% /T:%freetext% /O:NewResponse.xml /M:XML /C:%encoding% /R
...
In Linux and macOS versions, it is called demo_lksendcommand.sh:
#!/bin/sh
host=127.0.0.1
entrypoint=E1
epport=11500
user=admin
pass=admin
freetext="From lksendcommand"
encoding=""
mono lksendcommand.exe /F:XML/New-None.xml /U:$user /W:$pass /H:$host /P:$epport /E:$entrypoint /T:"$freetext" /O:NewResponse.xml /M:XML /C:$encoding /R
...
In the MV components there is a command called LK.DEMO.SENDCOMMAND that executes operations against any database connected to Linkar from BASIC.
