Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Scripting.FileSystemObject

Thanks for your anwsers,

you were right, it was a rights management problem with the windows machine. I'm now able to write to the desktop, which is fine.

Kind regards,

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Scripting.FileSystemObject

« on: May 29, 2013, 12:09:32 am »

Hi all,

i'd like to write some information to a simple text file using JScript, copied from the CSV example:

//      fileName="C:\test.txt";
//      fileName="C:\\test.txtl";
//      fileName="C:/test.txt";
fileName="C://test.txt";
var fsObject = new ActiveXObject( "Scripting.FileSystemObject")
exportFile = fsObject.CreateTextFile( fileName, true );
exportFile.WriteLine( "--hello world --" );

I get either "Path not found" or "access denied" with these variants.

Hints on what I'm doing wrong? Exporting Artifacts to the file system from the EA GUI is not a problem.

Kind regards,
Sebastian

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Transformations: Tagged values of Datatype

« on: May 31, 2013, 08:47:15 pm »

Thanks for your reply,

I'm currently happy with calling a Script by hand which transports my Tagged values and other information to the places where I want to have them. Then the transformation will consider them in the right way.

Kind Regards,

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Transformations: Tagged values of Datatype

« on: May 27, 2013, 09:42:32 pm »

Hi All,

in my transformation template I would like to get access to the tagged values of the datatype of an attribute.

Let's assume the tagged value is named "tagged_value".

Getting the tagged value of the attribute itself is easy:

%attTag:"tagged_value"%

But how do I get a tagged value of the datatype of that attribute?
In an object oriented programming language, you would write something like

%attType.attTag:"tagged_value"%

But that does not work, as attType isn't an object but just a string...

Any hints? Is there a way to call custom JScript code from the templates? That could be helpful here.

Kind regards,
Sebastian
