 Glide Session Exercises

1.     Navigate to System Definition

2.     Open Scripts – Background Application

3.     Write code into given space

1. Working with getClientData () method

Returns a session client value previously set with putClientData ().

This method is used in a client script to retrieve data values that were set by a server script that used the putClientData () method.

Code

var myData = gs.getSession ();

myData.putClientData('userName','Srinivas');

var clientData = session.getClientData('userName')

gs.print (clientData);

 

2. Working with clearClientData () method

Clears a session client value previously set with putClientData().

This method is used in a client script to clear data values that were set by a server script using the putClientData () method.

Code

var myData = gs.getSession ();

myData.putClientData('userName','Srinivas');

var clientData = session.getClientData ('userName');

gs.print(clientData);

session.clearClientData ('userName');

clientData = session.getClientData('userName');

gs.print (clientData);

 

3. Working with getLanguage () method
