Commands

Commands are objects that have precisely one method, execute. This way, a sequence can be called from methods by compiling a list of commands. Such a list is used, for example, in connection with SequenceSelectionActions.

The plug-ins of the system provide commands via system libraries:

Management tasks, for example, enabling and disabling the formula cache (Start/StopFormulaCacheCommand) or saving of changes (SaveObjectCommand, are provided as atomic command operations. These are used to compile a sequence to automate a workflow (also see Commands).

This fine-granular division into commands makes sense so as to provide options for performance optimization (e.g., use of an active formula cache for several commands, etc.).
