Object Pascal is object oriented by nature. A Class could be said to be a blueprint for an 
object and an Object is the instance of that class. In other words, an object is a real world 
thing that exists in memory. 

There are three Objects defined within the Callisto Script. These are Queue, Job and User. 
There are properties and methods defined for each Object. To access properties or methods 
of an object, the dot (‘.’) character is used.  A property is an attribute of a Object. For 
example PageCount is a property of the Job.  It counts the number of pages within a print 
job. To access the PageCount property of the Job object simply uses the dot. In this 
example, the Job variable is the instance, and the PageCount is the property. 

             Job.PageCount 

 

A method is an operation that the Object performs. For example Print is a method of the 
Queue Object.  Print enables jobs to be printed by the Queue.  For example to print a job 
use :  

       Queue1.Print; 

 

To view all the methods and properties for all the Objects see the Callisto Script API 
documentation.
