Powershell Inline |
MiniRobotLanguage (MRL)
PWE. Command
Powershell Script End
Intention
This command is used to end a block with VB-Script. It is always used paired with VBS.
The statements between a VBS. and a VBE. are ignored by the SPR-Preprocessor.
They are also ignored by the "Pretty-Printer" in the Editor.
VBS. and VBE. enable you, to include a VB-Script or Java-Script Code inline into the SPR-Script. You can use it to check for System-Objects (See Sample 2 below), or you can use it to call WMI-Functions.
You can also transfer Variable-Content into VB-Script-Variables (see example 1 below). And use them in your VB-Script.
And with VBE. you can get a single result value from the VB-Script back into your SPR-Script (see example 2 below).
This Sample-Script shows how to get Parameters into the Powerscript and how to get the result out to the SPR.

Remarks

Limitations:
The Powershell-Scripts will be written to the harddisk prior to execution. Therefore they are not permanently crypted as is
the SPR-Script, when using the '#CRY:-Option.
There are no Limitations about Multithreading here.
