29 WLANGUAGE CODE SAMPLES (5GL)

This page presents WLanguage code samples.

This is what L5G code looks like!
(and don't forget that there is nothing to code for several functions, all you have to do is click the choices proposed by the IDE ; these examples present the language only).

Example 1: Scanning a document
// Saves the document found in the scanner in the "MyPhoto.JPEG" file
// The document will be saved in black and white
IF TwainToBMP("C:\Temp\MyPhoto.BMP", False, TwainBlackWhite) = True THEN
Info("The document was saved")
ELSE
Error("The document was not scanned")
END
Example 2: Reading a registry key
// Reads the "Language" value in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\App" key
// ResExecute is a boolean used to find out whether the value was read
ResRead = RegistryQueryValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\App", "Language", ResExecute)

IF ResExecute = True THEN
Info("The value was read and it is set to: " + ResRead)
END
Example 3: Selecting a color
Value is int 
SelectionResult is boolean

Value =  RGB(10, 17, 69)
Info("Initial color: " + Value)

Example 5: Extracting part of a file path
sFilePath is string
sResFileName is string

sFilePath = "C:\MyDirectories\File.psw"

// sResFileName corresponds to "File"
Example 6: Transforms a number into a character string corresponding to the number "written in words"
Info(NumberInWords(83.335))
// Displays "eighty three point thirty four"

Info(NumberInWords(1.10, "Euro(s)"))
// Displays "one Euro ten"

Info(NumberInWords(1.01, "Euro(s)", "cent(s)"))

"smtp.gmail.com") = True THEN
UserName = USER
ELSE

  Error("Unable to establish the connection")
END

// Initializes the email components
// The sender
Email.Sender = "<user@pcsoft.fr>"
// The recipient
Email.Recipient[1] = RECIPIENT
// The number of recipients
Email.NbRecipient = 1
// The subject
Email.Subject = SUBJECT
// The message body
Email.Message = TEXT
