add

Adds a new entity to the collection.


            add ( [index ], xml)

Parameters

index

The entity will be added at this index point. If this argument is not specified, the entity will be appended to the end of the list.

xml

The entity to insert in XML form.

Return value

The element created.

Remarks

The following example shows two different ways to add a new element to a collection. The first solution passes the full definition of the element to the add() method, whereas the second one passes and empty <attachment/> element then assigns the attributes in the normal way.

var delivery = NLWS.nmsDelivery.load("12435")

delivery.attachment.add(
  {attachment: {
    compressMode: "print", filterActive: "false", label: "First File", 
    nameScriptActive: "false", type: "normal", upload: "false", 
    name: { $: "file1.txt" }
  }})

var attach = delivery.attachment.add()
attach.label            = "Second File"
attach.name             = "file2.txt"
attach.compressMode     = "print"
attach.type             = "normal"
attach.filterActive     = false
attach.nameScriptActive = false
attach.upload           = false

delivery.save()

The two solutions are equivalent, but the second one enables you to use the JavaScript types corresponding to attribute types whereas the first one only supports strings.
