if/else
if/else
if allows different sets of commands to be executed based on a condition. The else condition can be added to execute commands when the if condition evaluates to false.
Attributes:
- condition: the condition to be evaluated (use LT, LTE, GT, GTE, ==, !=, AND, OR for comparisons). Use single quotes for string comparisons.
- note: because ComScript uses greater than and less than symbols in the xml command structure, comparisons are done as described above.
Examples:
<if condition="[x] LT 10" >
<set var="x" value="10" />
<pause seconds="5" />
<else>
<set var="x" value="0" />
<pause seconds="2" />
</else>
</if>
<set var="x" value="10" />
<pause seconds="5" />
<else>
<set var="x" value="0" />
<pause seconds="2" />
</else>
</if>
condition="[x] LTE 10"
condition="'[x]' == 'valid'" Note: variable x is a variable string and valid is a literal string. Literal and variable strings must be enclosed in single quotes in conditional expressions.
condition="([x] LT 10) AND ([y] GT 20)"
condition="'[x]' == 'valid'" Note: variable x is a variable string and valid is a literal string. Literal and variable strings must be enclosed in single quotes in conditional expressions.
condition="([x] LT 10) AND ([y] GT 20)"
