Note: call() has been replaced in EFS2 by the new  efs()function.

 

Parameters

 

efsname

the path and filename of the EFS script to be called

arguments

list of input parameters, if any, required by the script being called

 

Usage

 

function main() {

var myVar;

       ...

       ...

       //call a second script that calculates a custom moving average

       //and retrieve the current value. In this example, the script

       //we are calling has one input parameter.

       myVar = call( "myCustomMA.efs", 10 );

 

}
