Services

Host.Services provides inter-script singleton lookup. A script registers a service via classfactory.xml with category="FrameworkService", and other scripts retrieve it by its class ID GUID.

Methods:

Method	Returns	Parameters	Description
Host.Services.getInstance(classID)	object	classID — GUID string from the framework service's class factory	Retrieve a registered singleton service by class ID

var service = Host.Services.getInstance("{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}");
if (service) {
  service.someMethod();
}

Registering a Service

Add a ScriptClass with category="FrameworkService" to your classfactory.xml:

<ScriptClass
  classID="{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}"
  category="FrameworkService"
  name="My Service"
  sourceFile="service.js"
  functionName="createMyServiceInstance">
</ScriptClass>

The associated script must implement IComponent or IExtensionHandler to serve as the singleton object retrieved by other scripts.
