DocumentBuilder
DocumentBuilder copied to clipboard
builder.OpenFile and other builder.xxxx operations fail silently when single quotes are used in arguments
Was using documentbuilder v7.5 from the cli using docbuilder.
Had a .docbuilder file whose first line was
builder.OpenFile('myfile.xlsx')
Next line was Api.GetSheet...
got an error message saying Api not defined.
After messing around figured out that if single quotes are used instead of double quotes the tool doesn't properly process the builder.XXXXX commands. Using the debugger it seems like those commands are specially cut out and ran through C++ so I'm guessing the code doesn't properly extract the arguments. Same goes for builder.CreateFile('docx')
...only works for builder.CreateFile("docx")
.
For now will just use double quotes, but I typically use single quotes when writing javascript which is how I fell into this.
Thanks!
