New environment variable function: get_table() A new function, environment.get_table(), has been added to the Environment Variable object in the Chameleon Python scripting library. This returns a Table object containing the rows of the specified table. In addition, a number of functions and operations can be performed on the Table object that is returned by environment.get_table(). These functions and operations enable you to retrieve table rows, append, insert and delete table rows, and assign and delete values stored in table rows. For more information on environment.get_table(), see Environment Variable Functions. For more information on the functions and operations that are defined for the Table object, see Table and Row Objects.
The Global Inbound Parse-complete Script has been added A new Python script, the Global Inbound Parse-complete Script, has been added to Chameleon. This script is executed after all table scripts have been executed, but before table data is inserted into the database. This enables you to modify the tables before the data is inserted. For details, see Global Inbound Parse-complete Script.
getRegistrationCode() method added to License object A new method, getRegistrationCode(), has been added to the License object. This enables you to use a text string to specify a specific type of registration code to retrieve. This method is intended to replace the fetchRegistrationCode(), fetchTrialRegistrationCode(), registerHost() and registerTrialHost() methods, which are now deprecated. For more details on getRegistrationCode() and the License object, see the language API documentation for the language that you use. For an overview of the main methods defined for the License object, see License Object Methods. |
