Run slx script outside client?

[AK]

Is it possible to run slx script outside client, in my custom .net app? i need to create windows service (c#), which will run some vbscript - and find no such methods in slx api.

[AK]

Yeap, i know how to run .net code from slx (Application.Managed.Create and Application.Managed.Run, see http://www.slxdeveloper.com/page.aspx?action=viewarticle&articleid=83 ), but i need a way to start slx from my own .net code then executing slxApplication.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke to get access to slx script and functions) But it seems that no way to run .net code outside slx... Am I right?

[AK]

It's me again. Is it any way to create slx object in 'silent mode', without starting client slx app? That's the way to create slx client from vb or c#: http://www.slxdeveloper.com/forum.aspx?forumid=3003&postid=2867 but i don't need to create client!

If you can call it.. you can run it...

Yes, vbscripts can be run outside of SalesLogix... Here is a link to my blog on just how this is accomplished: blog.rjlsystems.net 

As you can see, there's (almost) complete code available there.. and the usual disclaimer prevails:.. " not necessarily fit for any use whatever.. user beware and be cautious.."

Your samples shows how to manipulate data within database, this is database layer - and i prefer sublogix for such proposal. But i need in my custom .net app to execute some bussiness-logic, coded in slx script - to avoid duplicating this logic twice - both in slx script and my app.
