SystemCheck sample VSE
SystemCheck VSE demonstrates how a Windows system calls can be used to provide information to a calling VoltScript script, which is not normally available. This VSE will not build or run on Linux or other platforms.
Classes
SystemInfo
SystemInfo features two methods that populate its properties. DiskCheck queries Windows for information about the disk drives on the system. SystemCheck queries Windows for information the processor, version of Windows, and physical memory.
This information is available via the SystemInfo properties. There are too many statistics to return in a single object, and a script may only be interested in a few of them. Providing information through properties gives a script flexibility in how and where this information is used. A script could use the remaining free space to start a backup transfer of files, change behavior based on the operating system, or print multiple statistics in a single statement.
Test script
A test script for SystemInfo is provided. It calls DiskCheck and SystemCheck, then prints the determined information.
On Windows, the VSE can be built and the test script run with this command:
The test script is located on src/SystemCheck/test/voltscript/SystemCheck.vss.
