SystemScripter 6.02 Review - Testing and Debugging Your Code
(Page 5 of 6 )
SystemScripter has a fully integrated debugging environment for making sure your code is fully tested. Click the run button in the toolbar and see your script's output in the Output pane.
SystemScripter will warn you before executing any script that contains a match to anything on your Dangerous Keywords list. Adding keywords such as "delete" can prevent you from executing a script unintentionally.
If you enable the debugger, you can control your script's execution line by line, jump to other areas of execution, and view or change variables during execution. Click the Variables tab to the right of the screen and quickly see the contents of all of the variables in your script at a glance.
The output pane not only shows the output of your script's execution, but also any errors that are generated. Double clicking the exclamation point icon will bring you to the offending line in your code. In most cases, the context-sensitive help will open to the necessary help file while a balloon tip will show you the actual spot where the error occurred.
