Using the STORAGE object

[laura_albrecht_automic]

Does anyone know how to use the STORAGE (STORE) object?  I understand the concept - and I've created an object and uploaded 2 files to it (a company log (*.png) and an XML file).  But how do I reference the STORAGE object, individual files in there?  I was hoping that I'd be able to:

a) generate an email via a notification object and include the company logo in email body
b) attach a file to an email generated via a notification object

Is this possible?

I've never investigated it before either.  But I see there is a related :ATTACH_RES function to cause the stored object to be downloaded to the desired task/agent.  I don't understand how one would reference the file after that though.

the store object was designed to provide Files (especially environment files) for a specific job (or client) on an Agent.

I did a simple not very practical  Example just for using this new function- will upload it tomorrow morning.

Yes, Peter is right - as usual :-)

There is an example in the :ATTACH_RES help that downloads a JAR file, uses &$AGENT_RESOURCES_CLIENT# as the storage path for where the JAR was downloaded to, then executes it;

:ATTACH_RES "PCK.AUTOMIC_SIEBEL.PRV.STORE", "SIEBELTOOL.JAR", C 
JAVA -JAR "&$AGENT_RESOURCES_CLIENT#SIEBELTOOL.JAR" SIEBEL IMPORTBUSINESSOBJECT

This makes me curious to know if UC4 will automatically delete the downloaded file when the task completes?

If the agent treats these files in the same was as it treats the script files for external interpreter code blocks, then it removes them after the job has completed.

exactly!

here my example, a WIN job

Process:
:attach_res "STORE.EXAMPLE", SAMPLESTORE ,T,Y
set /p var=<&$AGENT_RESOURCES_TASK#exampleSTORE.txt
echo %var%
:REGISTER_VARIABLE "variable#", %var%

post_process:
:p &variable#

Very interesting guys.  Thanks for pointing me in the direction of ATTACH_RES - that makes sense now.  Much appreciated.
