Greetings,
If you're interested in hearing about errors that users have with your
scripts, I would recommend using the new Error Reporting object
available in the latest version of the GW Toolkit. Enabling Error
Reporting for your script is as simple as adding one line:
ExecuteGlobal SharedObjects("com.GWMicro.ErrorReporting")("version",
"email", boolean)
While this object is documented in the toolkit help, I think this
feature is significant enough to discuss it here.
The first parameter, version, is a string that contains the version
number of your script. If you supply this information through
ClientInformation.ScriptVersion (which you should), you can just
reference that property.
The second parameter, email, is a string that contains the email address
where you would like error reports to be sent, assuming that the end
user selects the Send Error button.
The final parameter is a boolean. If you set it to True, a tone will
play when the error dialog pops up to help alert the user about the
error. If the parameter is False, no tone will play.
For example:
ExecuteGlobal
SharedObjects("com.GWMicro.ErrorReporting")(ClientInformation.ScriptVersion,
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", True)
If you want to ensure that the toolkit object exists before trying to
use it (which is a good habit to get into), then you would do:
If Not SharedObjects("com.GWMicro.ErrorReporting") Is Nothing Then
ExecuteGlobal
SharedObjects("com.GWMicro.ErrorReporting")(ClientInformation.ScriptVersion,
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", True)
Else
Msgbox "GW Toolkit not found!"
End If
I'll be adding this feature to the GW Micro scripts as they get updated.
Enjoy!
Aaron
