options attribute
Specifies different options.
Content Type
positiveInteger
Parent
Remarks
The value is the decimal representation of a hexadecimal bit flag combination. The meaning of the different flags is as follows:
| Value | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x000 | None | Indicates that no options are set. |
| 0x008 | DebugMode | If this flag is present, comment type statements will be logged as information events. (Equivalent to a comment with "debug=true" as first script statement.) |
| 0x010 | AllowUndef | Allows GetParameter to return null when parameter value is undefined. |
| 0x020 | RequireInteractive | If present, the script can only be executed in interactive mode. This option is automatically set by DataMiner if the script contains engine.ShowUI, engine.RunClientProgram, or engine.ShowProgress, but it does not contain engine.FindInteractiveClient or engine.IsInteractive. |
| 0x040 | SupportsBackForward | If present, interactive portions in the script can be controlled by back/forward buttons. |
| 0x080 | SkipElementChecks | If present, parameter sets on elements will not be checked. (Equivalent to comment with "skipElementChecks == true".) |
| 0x100 | SavedFromCube | true if script was saved from Cube. |
| 0x200 | SkipInfoEventsSet | true if information events should not be generated for parameter sets executed from the Automation script. |
| 0x400 | HasFindInteractiveClient | Present if the script has a FindInteractiveClient call. |
Some of these options can be set via the Automation script editor in Cube. For more information, refer to General script configuration.
When creating a new Automation script from Cube, the options attribute has the decimal value “472” by default. This is “0x1D8” in hexadecimal notation, meaning that the following flags are configured by default:
- 0x008: Debug Mode
- 0x010: AllowUndef
- 0x040: SupportsBackForward
- 0x080: SkipElementChecks
- 0x100: SavedFromCube
