[gme-users] JScript Resources

[Zoltan Molnar]

Hi,

I have no such working example in Jscript. I have used Python code till
now, and I have created this VBScript code right now for the example's
sake. I could not figure out the Jscript counterpart of 'Nothing' or
'None' (VBScript/Python) that is required in the CreateTerritory call.
In JavaScript the 'undefined' keyword can be used there, but Jscript
complains about that.
The interesting thing is how differently map these languages the
Automation (COM) interface...

VBScript:
---------
project.BeginTransaction Nothing
set rf = project.RootFolder

set mrf       = rf.MetaFolder
set f_meta = mrf.LegalChildFolderByName( "MyFolderKind")

set nf        = rf.CreateFolder( f_meta)
nf.Name = "NewFolderOfType_MyFolderKind"

project.CommitTransaction


Python:
-------
project.BeginTransaction( project.CreateTerritory( None, None, None), 0)

metaproj = project.RootMeta		# an IMgaMetaProject
metaroot = metaproj.RootFolder		# an IMgaMetaFolder
	
mfco = metaroot.DefinedFCOByName("MyFCOKind", 1)

nfco = project.RootFolder.CreateRootObject( mfco)
nfco.Name = "NewFCOHurray"

project.CommitTransaction()


If you'd like to have a python app which creates the project (as opposed
to the examples above which can operate from the Console window and
benefit from the existance of the predefined 'project' variable) you
would need to use the following statements first:

import win32com.client
import pythoncom

My_project = win32com.client.Dispatch("Mga.MgaProject")
My_project.Create( "MGA=myfile.mga", "MyParadigmName")

##########
# copy the operations from the codesnippet above
# replacing references from project to My_project

# save the project
My_project.Save()
My_project.Close(0)


To do the same in VBScript:

Set My_Project = CreateObject( "Mga.MgaProject")
My_Project.Open "MGA=myfile.mga"
'
' do my operations
'
My_Project.Close
