LMD ScriptPack

Latest Version: 2024.2

Introduction

LMD ScriptPack is a collection of native VCL components and classes that can be compiled into your application royalty free. This package enables Delphi/CBuilder applications to support active scripting languages installed in Windows Scripting Host (such as VB Script, JScript, etc). It provides the ability to run scripts from within your application and to share any application object inherited from TPersistent with the script interpreter engine. The TLMDScriptControl component allows to operate with Delphi objects, unit routines and variables in script, including reading and writing published properties, running methods, setting script procedures as event handlers etc. LMD ScriptPack allows to extend functionality of an application by external scripts - source code changes or to rebuild projects is not required! Since release 4 an integrated debugger for handling the supported script languages is included. Release 5 added VCL.NET support. Since Release 5.1 a native PascalScript implementation is available!

In the Scripted Notepad project the use of VCL controls and events at runtime is demonstrated. As example a small Notepad application is completely created from script (including dialogs, menu entries and so on)

Debugger demo

Importer Wizard

To use Delphi language constructs, such as classes, objects, global variables and procedures, in a script you have to import its enclosing unit, and then register this unit in the script execution environment using TLMDScriptControl.AddUnit method. LMD-ScriptPack provides the Importing Wizard that can be accessed from Delphi Tools menu.

Components

TLMDScriptControl
Enables Delphi/CBuilder applications to support active scripting languages installed in Windows Scripting Host. In doing so VCL objects can be used within scripts and vice versa.
TLMDSourceUtils
The TLMDSourceUtils control provides services for parsing, searching and generating of script fragments (e.g. procedures) which can be used as event handlers for components. It is useful when LMD-ScriptPack and LMD-DesignPack packages are combined for setting up an integrated scripting languages IDE.
TLMDScriptDebugger
TLMDScriptDebugger allows true multi-module multi-language debugging capabilities for the script controls.
