Kicking off a method in Run Control without pressing start

[LukeWitt]

This might be a super simple flag that I’m missing, but I’m playing around with building some custom tools and I’m interested in launching methods from the command line.

If I run

"C:\Program Files (x86)\HAMILTON\Bin\HxRun.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\HAMILTON\Methods\My-Method.hsl"

I can get Run Control to open with the Method loaded, but the user still needs to click the Start button to actually kick it off. Is there a way to get the method to run automatically as soon as it’s called from the command line?

Yep, the -r or -t flags:

I believe this is also a feature of the new Venus 6 REST API.

Dang I’ve got Friday brain, shoulda known it’d be in the docs. Thanks Oliver!
