Configuring command-line tools to use UAC-compliant file paths

If you install any tools that use a command-line interface, when you run the setup application, you specify whether you want the tools to use UAC-compliant file paths for configuration files, input files, output files, and log files. The setup application creates a subfolder for the files in the application data folder for the current user (for example, <drive>:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Resource Kit for BlackBerry Device Service\ or <drive>:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Resource Kit for BlackBerry Device Service\).

When you use any of the command-line tools, you can use the -uac or -no_uac subparameters when you run a command to override the setting that you configured when you installed the tool. For example, if you configured the BlackBerry Application Reporting Tool to use a UAC-compliant file path, you can use the -no_uac subparameter to write output files and log files to a file path that is relative to the current working directory (for example, <drive>:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Resource Kit for BlackBerry Device Service\BlackBerry Application Reporting Tool).
