<h2>ToScript</h2>
<h3>Converting a string variable</h3>
<bx:set thisString = "This is a string" >
<bx:output>
<b>The thisString variable in Boxlang</b><br>
#thisString#<br>
<br>
<strong>The output of ToScript(thisString, "jsVar")</strong><br>
#ToScript( thisString, "jsVar" )#<br>
<br>
<strong>In a JavaScript script, convert thisString Variable to JavaScript
and output the resulting variable:</strong><br>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
var #ToScript( thisString, "jsVar" )#;
document.write("jsVar in JavaScript is: " + jsVar);
</script>
</bx:output>
<h3>Converting an array</h3>
<!--- Create and populate a one-dimensional array --->
<bx:set myArray = ArrayNew( 1 ) >
<bx:loop index="i" from="1" to="4">
<bx:set myArray[ i ] = "This is array element" & i >
</bx:loop>
<bx:output>
<b>The Boxlang myArray Array</b><br>
<!--- Write the contents of the myArray variable in Boxlang --->
<bx:loop index="i" from="1" to="#arrayLen( myArray )#">
myArry[#i#]: #myArray[ i ]#<br>
</bx:loop>
<br>
<strong>The output of ToScript(myArray, "jsArray")</strong><br>
#toScript( myArray, "jsArray" )#<br>
<br>
<strong>In JavaScript, convert myArray to a JavaScript variable and write it's contents</strong><br>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
var #ToScript( myArray, "jsArray" )#;
for (i in jsArray)
{
document.write("myArray[" + i + "]: " + jsArray[i] + "<br>");
}
</script>
<br>
<h3>Converting a query</h3>
This section converts the following query object to both WDDX format
and ActionScript type JavaScript objects.<br>
<!--- Query a database --->
<bx:set news = queryNew( "id,title", "integer,varchar" ) >
<bx:set queryAddRow( news ) >
<bx:set querySetCell( news, "id", "1" ) >
<bx:set querySetCell( news, "title", "Dewey defeats Truman" ) >
<bx:set queryAddRow( news ) >
<bx:set querySetCell( news, "id", "2" ) >
<bx:set querySetCell( news, "title", "Men walk on Moon" ) >
<bx:set writeDump( news ) >
<!--- run QofQ (query of query) --->
<bx:query name="sortedNews" dbtype="query">
SELECT id, title FROM news
ORDER BY title DESC
</bx:query>
<br>
The Query in Boxlang
<bx:dump var="sortedNews">
<strong>JavaScript generated by ToScript(sortedNews, "WDDXQuery"):</strong><br>
#toScript( sortedNews, "WDDXQuery" )#;<br>
<br>
<strong>JavaScript generated by ToScript(sortedNews, "ActionScriptQuery",
False):</strong><br>
#toScript( sortedNews, "ActionScriptQuery", false )#<br>
<br>
<!--- Convert to both WDDX format and ActionScript format --->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
#ToScript( sortedNews, "WDDXQuery" )#;
#ToScript( sortedNews, "ActionScriptQuery", false )#;
</script>
<!--- For brevity, this example does not use JavaScript query variables --->
</bx:output>
// Struct
Struct = {};
Struct[ 1 ] = "boxlang";
jsVar = JSONSerialize( Struct );
resStruct = ToScript( struct, "jsVar" );
writeDump( resStruct );
// Array
Array = [];
Array[ 1 ] = "boxlang";
jsVar = JSONSerialize( Array );
resArr = ToScript( Array, "jsVar" );
writeDump( resArr );
// Query
Query = queryNew( "name,age", "varchar,numeric", {
NAME : "Susi",
AGE : 20
} );
resQry = ToScript( Query, "Query" );
writeDump( resQry );
// String
Str = "test";
resStr = ToScript( Str, "Str" );
writeDump( resStr );
// Number
number = 10;
resNum = ToScript( number, "number" );
writeDump( resNum );
RESULT:
jsVar = {"1":"boxlang"};
jsVar = ["boxlang"];
Query = {"columns":["name","age"],"data":[["Susi",20]]};
Str = "test";
number = 10;
