Description
The Aliases object provides access to objects in the Name Mapping repository (specifically, to the Aliases tree). You can access an object by its alias using the following syntax:
JavaScript, JScript
Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts.Click();
// or
var link = Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts;
link.Click();
Python
Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts.Click()
# or
link = Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts
link.Click()VBScript
Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts.Click
' or
Set link = Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts
link.Click
DelphiScript
Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts.Click;
// or
link := Aliases.browser.pageExample.linkProducts;
link.Click;
C++Script, C#Script
Aliases["browser"]["pageExample"]["linkProducts"]["Click"]();
// or
var link = Aliases["browser"]["pageExample"]["linkProducts"];
link["Click"]();

The following example uses aliases to refer to objects in Notepad. Before you run this example, add Notepad’s window to the Name Mapping repository (see Mapping Objects Manually).
JavaScript, JScript
function Test()
{
// Launch Notepad if it's not running
if (! Aliases.notepad.Exists)
WshShell.Run("notepad");
// Enter text in Notepad
var wnd = Aliases.notepad.wndNotepad;
wnd.Maximize();
wnd.Keys("Hello, world!");
}
Python
def Test():
# Launch Notepad if it's not running
if not Aliases.notepad.Exists:
WshShell.Run("notepad")
# Enter text in Notepad
wnd = Aliases.notepad.wndNotepad
wnd.Maximize()
wnd.Keys("Hello, world!")VBScript
Sub Test
Dim wnd
' Launch Notepad if it's not running
If Not Aliases.notepad.Exists Then
WshShell.Run "notepad"
End If
' Enter text in Notepad
Set wnd = Aliases.notepad.wndNotepad
wnd.Maximize
wnd.Keys "Hello, world!"
End Sub
DelphiScript
procedure Test;
var wnd;
begin
// Launch Notepad if it's not running
if not Aliases.notepad.Exists then
WshShell.Run('notepad');
// Enter text in Notepad
wnd := Aliases.notepad.wndNotepad;
wnd.Maximize;
wnd.Keys('Hello, world!');
end;
C++Script, C#Script
function Test()
{
// Launch Notepad if it's not running
if (! Aliases["notepad"]["Exists"])
WshShell["Run"]("notepad");
// Enter text in Notepad
var wnd = Aliases["notepad"]["wndNotepad"];
wnd["Maximize"]();
wnd["Keys"]("Hello, world!");
