Description
The Syntax.CreateInvoke method creates and returns a syntax element that corresponds to any of the following expressions:
- An expression containing a variable name, for example,
MyVar. - An expression containing a routine call, for example,
Eval(MyVar). - An expression containing an object’s property name, for example,
Sys.Clipboard. - An expression containing an object’s method call, for example,
Log.Message("Checkpoint passed.").
Using the properties of the returned InvokeSyntax object, you can specify the variable, routine, property or method to be invoked, the object that contains the desired property or method and, if needed, specify the parameter values to be passed to the invoked element.
