Does FrameMaker 2015 support Object Rexx?

Hello,

      Can anyone tell me if the 2015 edition of FrameMaker supports Object Rexx?  The only references I can find in relation to Object Rexx all talk about FM9.  Is it still supported?

      Thank you for any help you can offer.

Cheryl.

    Are you referring to the programming language Open Object Rexx? Is your idea to automate FrameMaker?

    FrameMaker does not support Object Rexx. Maybe someone has written a compiler, but I'm not aware of any.

    If you want to automate FrameMaker, you have basically three possibilities:

    • Writing an API C++ plugin.
    • Writing a FrameScript (needs 3rd party FrameScript from Finite Matters)
    • Writing an ExtendScript (FrameMaker 2015 supports ExtendScript out of the box).
