  • 1.  How to put the name of the JOBI object in an object variable

    Posted Apr 26, 2017 03:14 AM
    In this discussion (https://community.automic.com/discussion/893/rename-the-include-object ) I found the following comment;

    Michael:

    On V8, the documentation states:  

    Enter the complete name of the Include object. Script variables are not allowed. 
     
    While it allows the object to be saved, execution results in:

    Error: U0010003 Object: 'THE_OBJECT': Include '&THE_INC' not found in object
    'THE_OBJECT(1)'.

    Are you (hopefully) saying that this actually works in later versions?  Please say that it is true since I have always had a desire to do this.

    Hi Mark,

    this is still not possible (v10 SP2). The AE takes the characters after the :INC statements as a "real" object name. Replacing a script variable by its content is not implemented here.

    To make this possible I guess the script interpreter has to be changed ...

    I'm wondering if this is still not possible in version v12 !?

    There is an enhancement request for this:

    Allow variables in :INCLUDE statements 

    If you like the idea, vote for it!

    I will, but I don't have access to the custom portal (yet)  :(
    I'll ask a colleague to do it
