getLibProperty() Function

Introduced in version 1.3b48
Returns the value of a token property from a library token. If the lib argument is not specified then the token property will be retrieved from the library token that the macro is currently running from. Unlike getProperty(), this function will not retrieve the default value of a campaign property. Default values are generally programmed as local variables in a macro, then overridden with the result of this function if this function returns a value. An example is shown below.

Usage

getLibProperty(name)
getLibProperty(name, lib)

Examples

To get the "init" token property from the library token that a macro is running from use.
[getLibProperty("init")]

To get the "init" token property from the library token if the library token has such a property. If not, use a default value of "default".

[result = getLibProperty("init")]
[IF(result == ""): result = "default" ]

To get the "init" token property from a library token called "lib:Attacks" use.

[getLibProperty("init", "lib:Attacks")]
