jsSystem Design and Description
The following is a brief description of basic overall operation and
design of the jsSystem dBL class. Don't worry if you don't clearly
understand what is described. Simply read it for purposes of 'awareness'.
Much of the following will become clearer as you become familiar with
using jsSystem. In reality, jsSystem is quite simple to use. What
follows is a small attempt to satisfy those who want to know 'just a bit more'.
jsSystem is a non-visual dBL class intended to retrieve useful information
regarding system parameters, and to perform system-level functions that are
not available in the dBL language.
The 'spirit' of jsSystem is to exist as a global _sys object, similar to the
way the global _app object exists in the core product. As a global object, it
is also intended to be the parent of other sub-system objects which encapsulate
various hardware and software portions of the operating system, such as the
keyboard, mouse, system registry, system shell, etc.
