Example

The following code snippet checks whether the specified variable exists in a variable collection.

JavaScript, JScript

function Test()
{

  var Variables, VarName;
  // …

  // Obtains a variable collection
  Variables = ProjectSuite.Variables;
  VarName = "MyVar";

  // Checks whether the MyVar variable exists in the project suite
  if (Variables.VariableExists(VarName))
    Log.Message("The " + VarName + " variable exists in the project suite.");
  else
    Log.Error("The " + VarName + " variable does not exist in the project suite.");

  …
}

Python

def Test():
  # ...
  # Obtains a variable collection
  Variables = ProjectSuite.Variables
  VarName = "MyVar"
  # Checks whether the MyVar variable exists in the project suite
  if Variables.VariableExists(VarName):
    Log.Message("The " + VarName + " variable exists in the project suite.")
  else:
    Log.Error("The " + VarName + " variable does not exist in the project suite.")
  # ...

VBScript

Sub Test

  Dim Variables, VarName
  ' …

  ' Obtains a variable collection
  Set Variables = ProjectSuite.Variables
  VarName = "MyVar"

  ' Checks whether the MyVar variable exists in the project suite
  If Variables.VariableExists(VarName) Then
    Log.Message("The " & VarName & " variable exists in the project suite.")
  Else
    Log.Error("The " & VarName & " variable does not exist in the project suite.")
  End If
  …
End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure Test();
var Variables, VarName;
begin

  // …

  // Obtains a variable collection
  Variables := ProjectSuite.Variables;
  VarName := 'MyVar';

  // Checks whether the MyVar variable exists in the project suite
  if Variables.VariableExists(VarName) then
    Log.Message('The ' + VarName + ' variable exists in the project suite.')
  else
    Log.Error('The ' + VarName + ' variable does not exist in the project suite.');
