Adding New Scripted Operations

This section describes the procedure for creating a new scripted operation.

  1. Create an entry in the database.dat file for the operation as described in Operation Entry.

    Set the responsibleDHS to 'self'.

    Set the externalName parameter to the name of your new operation file without the .tcl extension.

  2. Create the new operation file in the dcss operation directory, dcss/scripts/operations

  3. Within the new operation file define two procedures, where the operationName is replaced by the name of the new operation.

  4. Restart DCSS.
