OLConnect 2019.1 Enhancements
Script Debugger
Connect 2019.1 introduces a new Script Debugger. This provides options to step through
code (i.e. execute the code line by line) and to add breakpoints to pause execution at strategic
points, as well as displaying the current state of variables, both local and global. (SHARED-66671)
The Script Debugger simulates an output run for all sections in the current context, including
section clones. The output run is limited to running scripts and pagination for the current record.
A print context will not generate actual output, and an email context will not generate
attachments or send the email message.
The Scripts pane on the left hand side of the Script Debugger lists all scripts that are enabled
to apply to the current context, in the order in which they are expected to be processed.
The Source Code pane shows the source of the suspended or selected script. Scripts based
on a script wizard show the source of the expanded script. The current line in the script is
highlighted, and the left margin of the source editor has a “pointer” marking the current line
position within the greater script. You can ad breakpoints by clicking in the left margin of the
source editor. The script will then pause at this line.
The Variables pane shows a hierarchical overview of the state of all local and global variables.
It includes the special entry “(this)”, which represents the JavaScript “this” object.
