Manipulate Load script Variable in Extension

Anonymous — Thu, 25 Jan 2018 08:30:16 GMT

Hi,

I would like to manipulate load script inside my extension.

For example, I would like to have a variable with customer Id, that would be calculated inside my extension.

For testing (just to see how this behave) I try this:

In LOAD script:

Set MyVar = 4;

Exit Script when MyVar<>4;

Inside my extension:

app.variable.setNumValue("MyVar", 5);

app.doReload(2,false,false).then(function(e) {

app.doSave();

});

This gave me an Internal engine error.

And even if it would work, I can see the problem, that after doReload is called the MyVar is set to 4 again.

So my second approach was

If Len(Trim('$(vScriptVariable1)')) = 0 then

Set MyVar = 4;

Else

Set MyVar = 3;

End If

Exit Script when MyVar<>4;

and inside my extension:

app.variable.create({qName : 'vScriptVariable1'});

app.variable.setStringValue("vScriptVariable1","marko");

app.doReload(2,false,false).then(function(e) {

app.doSave();

});

But it give me the same error.

If I change

app.variable.setStringValue("vScriptVariable1","marko");

app.variable.setStringValue(vScriptVariable1,"marko");

error goes away, but nothing happened.

How to do this right?
