Write Script Worksheet

The Write Script Worksheet enables you to write ProcScript and JavaScript, and to edit objects shown in the Structure.

  • In the Entity Editor, you can write generic ProcScript for controlling data I/O or common application behavior.
  • In the Component Editor, you can code component-specific behavior for the component and its entities, occurrences, and fields.
  • In Library editors, you can define IncludeScript and Global ProcScript modules and Snippets.

The code that is ultimately compiled in a component may come from several sources:

  • Locally-defined script written in the code containers of the component and its entities and fields
  • Inherited script, defined in modeled entities and fields used by the component
  • Generated script, coming from IncludeScript that is resolved during compilation

Tools

  • Resource Browser—depending on the editor, you add objects to the Structure using the Templates and Model tabs, or copy code from the Snippets tab.
  • Script Editor—enables you to navigate to and edit up to two code containers simultaneously.
  • Compiled Modules Inspector—provides a summary of the ProcScript modules for the selected object after compilation, and enables you to navigate to the module declaration, whether it is inherited, generated, or locally-defined.
