Siebel eScript Language Reference > Methods Reference > Custom Methods > Overview of Custom MethodsYou can group variables and functions together in one variable, and then reference them as a group. A compound variable of this sort is an object where each individual item of the object is a property. An object property is similar to a variable or a constant. An object method is similar to a function. To reference an object property, you use the name of the object and the name of the property, separated by a period: You can write code that uses any valid variable name as a property name. The following example assigns values to the width and height properties of a rectangle object, calculates the area of a rectangle, and then displays the result: var Rectangle; An object allows you to work with groups of data in a consistent way. For example, instead of using a single object named Rectangle, you can use multiple Rectangle objects, where each of these objects includes a separate value for width and a separate value for height. |
