| ==How to use each command:==
| |
| ===AppendFile - Add a string to the end of a file===
| |
| '''AppendFile( <filename> <value1> <value2> ... )'''
| |
|
| |
| The first parameter is the name of the file and all the others parameters will be added at the end of this file.
| |
|
| |
| '''Example :'''
| |
| sequence(seq 1 3 1)
| |
| foreach(value ${seq})
| |
| appendFile('C:/bmtest.txt' 'value: ${value}\n')
| |
| endforeach(value)
| |
|
| |
| This script will add the following strings at the end of the file entitled "C:/bmtest.txt" :
| |
| "value: 1"
| |
| "value: 2"
| |
| "value: 3"
| |
|
| |
| ===CloseTCPSocket - Close a TCP/IP socket===

| |
|
| |
|
| |
| ===DashboardExperiment - Specify the encrypted name of the experiment to report on===
| |
| '''DashboardExperiment( <encryptedExperiment> )'''
| |
|
| |
| The encryptedExperiment is given when creating a new experiment online (this requires a login/pass)
| |

| |
| foreach(value ${seq})
| |
| foreach(value2 ${seq2})
| |
| Echo(value: ${value} ${value2})
| |
