EzScript Workflow Component  |
The Mighty ScriptObject - the
perfect XML Generator
Microsoft has produced many good technologies. One
of most powerful, yet easy to use has been ASP (Active
Server Pages) webserver. This technology uses Active Scripting
languages (now named Windows Scripting) to enable just
about anyone to create a dynamically-generated webpage in
a couple of minutes. The two most commonly used
languages are VBScript and JScript (Javascript
work-alike). Another great technology is COM.
Most Windows programming languages support COM.
We have combined these technologies into the Script Object. With EzScript, you can create "script pages"
much like ASP pages. These pages can be pure script
code, or can have plain text intermixed with the code,
just like ASP. This is what makes the ScriptObject
so powerful and versatile, and the ideal tool for
generating XML documents.
EzScript is a COM DLL.
The main object - the ScriptObject - is a scriptable
COM object that executes script using one of the Windows Script engines.
You can use it directly in any COM-aware programming language, such as VB, C++,
.NET, Delphi, etc. EzScript runs any of the various Windows Scripting
Engines, eg. VBScript or JScript. EzScript
initializes the script engine and runs script files, or script passed as a
string parameter. BUT!...EzScript also works like the Microsoft ASP
webserver engine, and parses script intermixed with text, giving you the ability
to create HTML/XML and other documents the same way you would with an ASP page.
It uses the same <%...%> delimiter tags as does ASP, so you could write a script
to output the text "Scripting is easy with EzScript" like this:
Scripting is <%="easy"%> with EzScript
|
Not only that, EzScript also supports the familiar ASP
<--#include...--> and @ Language= statements, so you can
include other files that contain your utility functions,
and specify the script language programmatically from the
script.
