Debugging CRMScript modules

CRMScript modules are scripts imported into other scripts files by using the #included directive.

Historically, you couldn't run CRMScript modules. Now, scriptwriters can use environment variables to invoke and debug module scripts:

  • developmentMode
  • includeId

Debugging modules

developmentMode and includeId are set only when the script is run inside the code editor. To access them, call getVariable(). For example:

getVariable("includeId");

When the Execute script button is clicked, the engine sets developmentMode* to true and includeId to the includeId of the current script.

This lets you incorporate global code in your CRMScript:

// my global script

String foo() {
    return "Foo";
}

String bar() {
    return "Bar";
}

if (getVariable("developmentMode") == "true" && getVariable("includeId") == "foobar")
{
  printLine(foo() + bar());
}

  • When editing your module library, only the part inside the if statement is run by the Execute script click event.

  • When the library is included in production code, the debug code is not run when the production code is.
