Checking a Project

Run Check Project function to reveal possible errors in the project. The function issues:

Errors:

• No <job> element specified within the project
• External script file specified by <script> element doesn't exist
• Job name specified by <job> element is empty
• Job name specified by <job> is not unique within the project
• Referenced COM/OLE objects can't be created (<object>, <reference>)
• Name of a variable for an object specified by <object> element is not valid
• Name of a variable for an object specified by <object> element is not unique within a job
• ID of <resource> element is empty
• ID of <resource> element is not unique within a job

Warnings:

• No external nor embedded script found in a job
• Two or more <runtime> elements found within one job
• Two or more <reference> elements specifying the same object found within one job

By default, before the project is executed by Script Editor, it is checked. The project is not started if any errors were encountered. It makes debugging much faster because any possible discrepances are revealed before they are reported by the Windows Script Host.
