Defined Functions and Libraries [W/L/M]

since 4.12.0.0

Definition

DefFunc <func name>([calltype parameter ptype][,[calltype parameter ptype]]) : ftype
<function body>
endfunc

Where:

  • DefFunc is the keyword used to start defining a local function.

  • '<func name>' is the freely choosen name of the function.

  • 'calltype' is the call type of the parameter [val | ref]. val='Call by Value', ref='Call by Reference'. Default: val

  • 'parameter' is the freely selected name of the call parameter which is available as a local variable within the function under the aforementioned name.

  • 'ptype' is the type of data of the parameter and either string or stringlist.

  • 'ftype' is the type of data of the function and either string ,stringlist or void. void declares that no result is returned.

  • '<function body>' is the body of the function which must conform to the opsi-script syntax.

  • endfunc is the keyword used to end defining a local function.

see also : localfunctions

importLib <string expr> ; import library // since 4.12.0.0
<string expr> : <file name>[.<file extension>][::<function name>]
If no '.<file extension>' is given .opsiscript is used as default.
If no '::<function name>' is given, all function from the given file will be imported.

<file name> is:

  • A complete path to an existing file. [W/L/M]

  • An existing file in %ScriptPath% [W/L/M]

  • A file in %opsiScriptHelperPath%\lib [W]
    Is equivalent to: '%ProgramFiles32Dir%\opsi.org\opsiScriptHelper\lib'

  • An existing file in %ScriptPath%/../lib [W/L/M]

  • An existing file in %WinstDir%\lib [W] or /usr/share/opsi-script/lib [L]

The tests for the location of the <file name> are done in the order above. 'opsi-script' uses the first file it finds that has a matching name.
