ActiveXObject in ARIS(JavaScript)

Kabelo Mangole on May 25, 2011

I've been converting our VBSCripts to JavaScript

How would the ActiceXObject be implemented in an ARIS script(JavaScript).

I've got the below code but it keeps returning an "ActiveXObject" not defined error

var oFSO = null;//Dim oFSO As Object

FSO = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");//Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

var dicIniSections = null;//dim dicIniSections as Object

dicIniSections = new AcitveXObject("Scripting.Dictionary");//set dicIniSections = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")

You do not need any OS-dependent ActiveX objects any more. In our JavaScript implementation you can use (almost) every Java class from J2SE, where you'll find objects for every task. Additionally you can use your own JARs from a script.

For example for file system operations, you'll find objects in java.io, especially java.io.File.

The "Dictionary" object behaves the same as java.util.HashMap which is uesed the following way:

var dicIniSections = new java.util.HashMap()

dicIniSections.put("key1", value)

dicIniSections.put("key2", value2)

var val = dicIniSections.get("key1") //or use .containsKey("key1"), .containsValue(value2),...

Hello!

But what I have to do if I need to work with excel and word classes and methods? For example selection; remove, copy tables; find and so on?
