Debugging scripts

Daniel Lundsgaard Skovenborg

Is there any way to debug scripts directly in Libronix?

As far as I can tell, you can debug by running the following script in Windows Script Host or Internet Explorer (copy-paste to your favorite editor, save as .js and open):

var Application = null;
try {
    Application = GetObject("", "LibronixDLS.LbxApplication");
}
catch (e) {}
if (Application == null) {
    try
    {
        Application = new ActiveXObject( "LibronixDLS.LbxApplication" );
        Application.Visible = true;
    }
    catch (e) {}
}
if (Application == null) {
    WScript.Echo("Could not open Libronix!");
    WScript.Quit();
}

... your code ...

It's a bit cumbersome solution, though.

This one is a bit more compact. I have no experience with COM, so I have no idea if there is any problems in catching exceptions instead of checking for null (the code in the previous post was taken from http://www.logos.com/support/lbs/copybibleverses).

var Application = null;
try {
    Application = GetObject("", "LibronixDLS.LbxApplication");
}
catch (e) {
    try {
        Application = new ActiveXObject("LibronixDLS.LbxApplication");
        Application.Visible = true;
    }
    catch (e) {
        WScript.Echo("Could not open Libronix!");
        WScript.Quit();
    }
}

... your script ...
