ITNCM JavaScript Native Command Sets cause "ReferenceError: <paramaterValue> not defined" error.

Troubleshooting


Problem

When submitting a JavaScript Native Command Set, that uses parameters, the UOW log contains a "ReferenceError: not defined" error.

Symptom

A JavaScript Native Command Set is written containing code such as the following:

//#js

function execute(log,dev,sys) {
    var stringToLog = $stringToLog$;
    log.info(stringToLog);
    return true;
}

The end-user submits the Native Command Set against a device and supplies a value for the parameter (stringToLog in the above example):

But the submitted UOW contains a ReferenceError quoting the actual parameter supplied by the user:

(47) Failed to execute script contents  : sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.EcmaError: ReferenceError: "myTestValue" is not defined. (<Unknown source>#3) in <Unknown source> at line number 3
