Command.Category
 
 
 

Command.Category

Description

Returns a String containing a list of the categories that the command belongs to. This information is similar to SIObject.Categories but this method returns a pipe-delimited ("|") string rather than an array.

Custom commands always belong to the category "Custom". If an siCommandCategory was specified in the call to XSIApplication.CreateCommand then a string representing the specified category is included in the returned string.

C# Syntax

// get accessor
String rtn = Command.Category;

Examples

cmd.ScriptingName = "Demo" ;
cmd.Language = "JScript" ;
cmd.Handler = "Demo" ; 
cmd.Code = Demo.toString() ; // Embed the code directly in the definition
Application.AddCommand( cmd ) ;
//INFO : "Custom|Import|File"
logmessage( cmd.Category ) ;
Application.RemoveCommand( "Demo" ) ;
function Demo()
{
        LogMessage( "Demo called" ) ;
}
