Syntax for WLST Commands

Follow this syntax when entering WLST commands or writing them in a script:

■Command names and arguments are case sensitive.
■Enclose arguments in single or double quotes. For example, 'newServer' or "newServer".
■If you specify a backslash character (\) in a string, either precede the backslash with another backslash or precede the entire string with a lower-case r character. The \ or r prevents Jython from interpreting the backslash as a special character.
For example when specifying a file pathname that contains a backslash:

readTemplate('c:\\userdomains\\mytemplates\\mytemplate.jar') or
readTemplate(r'c:\userdomains\mytemplates\mytemplate.jar')

■When using WLST offline, the following characters are not valid in names of management objects: period (.), forward slash (/), or backward slash (\).
If you need to cd to a management object whose name includes a forward slash (/), surround the object name in parentheses. For example:

cd('JMSQueue/(jms/REGISTRATION_MDB_QUEUE)')
