StartCAAB Command Syntax

`-code "RTInstallDir"`	Specifies the directory where you have installed the run time part of the configurations and products for which you want to install the APIs. Make sure the directory path is enclosed like this: "install dir" if the directory name contains spaces. The default installation directory is: `C:\Program Files\Dassault Systemes\B19`
`-list`	Lists the configurations and products on the CD-ROM
`-all`	Unloads all the configurations and the products on the CD-ROM
`-l "list_to_unload"`	Specifies the list of configurations and/or products to unload. You have to type the list of configurations and/or products, which you can obtain by running the command using the "list" argument. In the list, configuration names look like this: ME2.slt, and product names look like this: KIN.prd. These are the names you must type with a caa2 suffix, such as ME2.slt.caa2 or KIN.prd.caa2. Separate the names using a blank. The arguments `-list, -all` and `-l "list_to_unload"`are mutually exclusive.
`-v`	Verbose mode
`-h`	Displays help
