To create a JScript script in Intellect, the Editor-Debugger utility is used.

To start the utility, click the Editor-Debugger button in the Script object settings panel.

To create a script, do the following:

  1. In the Programming tab of the System Settings window, create a Script object. Enter the identification number and the name for the script.

  2. Select the time limits for running the script in the Time Zone field (for example, the Always zone).

    Note

    By default, the Never time zone is selected

  3. In the Computers field, select the computers (kernels) where the script should run.

    Note

    By default, the script will run on all computers. The list shows only the computers registered in the Hardware tab of the System Settings window

  4. Click the Editor-Debugger button in the bottom of the Script settings panel to open the Editor-Debugger utility.

    Note

    Use the Editor-Debugger utility to create, edit and save scripts in JScript. The text of saved script available to be edited is saved on the setting panel of the Script object.

  5. In the Editor-Debugger utility window, open the Script Debug/Edit list and select the Script object to be edited (for example, Script 2).


  6. Enter the text of the script in JScript programming language into the Script field.

    Note.

    For convenience, the cursor position is stored when script is saved or when switching between scripts in Editor-Debugger during a session, i.e. until Intellect is restarted.

  7. Run the script using a test event. To create a test event, select the Edit test event in the Debug and edit menu. The Test message window will open allowing to set the test event parameters. 


To run the script using the test event, select Test run in the Debug and Edit menu.

  1. Check the script syntax using the interpreter which is built-in into the Editor-Debugger utility. The verification results showing the error and its location will be displayed in the debugger window of this script in the Script messages list. Correct the script to eliminate the error and repeat the verification.

    Note

     See the detailed information about using test events for script debugging in the Script Debugging section

  2. After debugging the script using the Editor-Debugger utility, run it with a real event. Check the result. If the result is incorrect, change it and run again.

Script creation is considered complete if it runs correctly.
