Classes

You cannot define a class inside the script, but you can use the external classes defined in DBF Script modules or your application.

var f: TForm; b: TButton; procedure ButtonClick(Sender: TButton); begin ShowMessage(Sender.Name); f.ModalResult := mrOk; end; // there is no need to use all the parameters in event handlers // because no type checking is performed here procedure ButtonMouseMove(Sender: TButton); begin b.Caption := 'moved over'; end; begin f := TForm.Create(nil); f.Caption := 'Test it!'; f.BorderStyle := bsDialog; f.Position := poScreenCenter; b := TButton.Create(f); b.Name := 'Button1'; b.Parent := f; b.SetBounds(10, 10, 75, 25); b.Caption := 'Test'; b.OnClick := @ButtonClick; { same as b.OnClick := 'ButtonClick' } b.OnMouseMove := @ButtonMouseMove; f.ShowModal; f.Free; end.

As you can see there is no difference between PascalScript and Delphi code. You can access any property (simple, indexed or default) or method. All the object's published properties are accessible from the script by default. Public properties and methods need the implementation code - that's why you can access it partially (for example, you cannot access the TForm.Print method or TForm.Canvas property because they are not implemented).
