Just installed JLinkExe v6.96 on 64-bit Ubuntu 20.04 to test it out. On first run it rendered a graphical dialog. I'd like to be able to ensure that these don't occur. We version control our full toolchain and script our compile/build/test operations using containers. This ensures a necessary level of audit, repeatability (in time and across developers), and change management. This toolchain container doesn't have any graphical support.
The PDF manual shows the -nogui command. The forum documents "-nogui 1" but the user manual in JLink_Linux_V696_x86_64.deb is for v6.87b (per the cover page) and does not document options for -nogui.
What are the options for -nogui?
A forum post says there are some dialogs that are mandatory. Rather than force them when -nogui is present, why not exit with an error message instead? This seems more in line with the idea of -nogui. If that error is seen, the developer would know they need to fire up jlink interactively without -nogui to service the requested interaction.
Thanks,
Steve
