servoyDeveloper

Overview

ONLY AVAILABLE when running a client from Servoy Developer. Do not try to use this when running clients from a normal server/war deployment. It is meant to be used primarily from developer's 'Interactive Console' view (so you will not get it suggested in code completion of a scope/form script editor).

It provides utility methods for interacting with the developer's environment from a debug Servoy client. It offers a bridge between the runtime client and the developer's workspace - allowing for changes done at runtime via solution model to be persisted into the workspace.

Look at this as a way to automate various tasks that create solution content or alter big solutions.
