Scripting help needed on syntax and "storeaction " and "localproperties " 2005-06-22 - By Bernard Lebel
Back
Salut Hugo,
I don't know the answer to your first question, but for the second
one, localproperties are present only if there are actually
localproperties. This is a gotcha with XSI properties you have to take
care. You always have the properties, but not necarily the local
properties. So you have to test the present of the localproperties
property before anything else. I'd suggest a way in Python but you're
using VBScript so I'm affraid I can't point you as to how to.
Btw, you can generally get the cpset of an object by checking the
properties. However if your cpset is applied in branch, there is a
risk that you find a cpset that is inherited from a "superior" object
(higher in the hierarchy).
Cheers
Bernard
