Function() Method

A COM method for calling a GISDK function.

retval = Maptitude_Object.Function(string macroname, [optional Variant arg 1], [optional Variant arg2], ... [optional Variant arg9])

Argument	Contents
macroname	The name of the GISDK function to be run
arg1, arg2, ... arg9	The function arguments; their count and Variant types should match those specified for that function

A variant containing either the return value specified for the function, or Null.

If the argument specified is a string, integer, or real, then the Variant type must match.
If the argument is an array, then the Variant type must be a Safe Array of Variants of appropriate types.
A Null value can be passed as a Variant of type Null.
Arguments of the compound types in Caliper Script are passed as MacroVal objects in the Variants (see The MacroVal Object).
An old name for this method is RunMacro().

Set Gisdk = CreateObject("Maptitude.AutomationServer")
