...

Code Block

var border = solutionModel.createLineBorder(1, 'blue');
var form = solutionModel.getForm('myForm);
form.borderType = border;

...

To create a new calculation with name myCalculation on table customers of server example_data which returns 1:

Code Block

var calculation = solutionModel.newCalculation('function myCalculation() { return 1; }', JSVariable.INTEGER, 'db:/example_data/customers');

To get the existing calculation myCalculation on table customers of server example_data:

Code Block

var calculation = solutionModel.getCalculation('myCalculation', 'db:/example_data/customers');

To output whether or not this calculation is a stored one:

Code Block

application.output('Stored calculation: ' + calculation.isStored();

To remove existing calculation myCalculation:

Code Block

solutionModel.removeCalculation('myCalculation', 'db:/example_data/customers');

...
