JoPPS – V2.82

To be documented.

JoPPS/JCALL/JScripter

Deletes the trailing backslash from a given path specification.

î       Spath is a given path specification (eg. c:\joppswin\)

ì       S is the path specification without a trailing backslash. (eg. c:\joppswin)

 

7     Example :

 

dxfview := NoBackSlash(InstalledIn())+"\dxfview.exe";

IF FileExists(dxfview) THEN

  RunProgram(dxfview)

ELSE

  Fatal("The executable "+dxfview+" does not exist!");

 

M     If the path specification does not end in a backslash the input string is returned unchanged.

JoPPS/JCALL/JScripter

Returns the current date and time.

î       The optional argument Dhow can be used to specify if one only wants the time or date part to be returned.

Dhow	Meaning
NOW_DATETIME	Return current date and time (default)
NOW_DATE	Return current date only
NOW_TIME	Return current time only

ì       The current date and or time as a floating point value. 24h corresponds to a value of 1, thus 12h equals 0.5 and so on..

7     Example :

time := Now(NOW_TIME);

IF time kdan 0.5 THEN

  msg := "Goodmorning"

ELSE IF time kdan 0.75 THEN

  msg := "Good afternoon"
