You can include an external script file (.vbs or .js) in another script file. This lets you reuse common routines without the need to paste them into every file. Once you have included a script file as shown below, the routines exist in the global namespace and you can call them in the same way you would call any other routine in the script.
Including External Files Using VBScript
Here’s an example of including external .vbs
files using VBScript:
'-------------------------------------------------------
'-- Include procedure
'-----------------------------------------------------------
Sub Include( cNameScript )
Set oFS = CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")
Set oFile = oFS.OpenTextFile( cNameScript )
ExecuteGlobal oFile.ReadAll()
oFile.Close
End Sub
'-- Samples
Include "C:\user\username\Softimage\Scripts\globals.vbs"
Include "C:\user\username\\Softimage\Scripts\utils.vbs"
|
Including External Files Using JScript
Here’s how to include external .js files using
JScript:
/*-------------------------------------------------------
--- Include procedure
------------------------------------------------------------*/
function include(filnam) {
var fso = new ActiveXObject('Scripting.FileSystemObject');
var fil = fso.OpenTextFile(filnam);
var s = fil.ReadAll();
fil.Close();
return s;
}
// Samples
eval(include('C:\\user\\username\\Softimage\\Functions1.js'));
eval(include('C:\\user\\username\\Softimage\\Functions2.js'));
