Version Information

Statement
Implemented in: JavaScript 1.2, NES 3.0

export name1, name2, ..., nameN;

export *;

Description

Typically, information in a signed script is available only to scripts signed by the same principals. By exporting properties, functions, or objects, a signed script makes this information available to any script (signed or unsigned). The receiving script uses the companion import statement to access the information.

The first syntax exports the specified properties, functions, and objects.

The second syntax exports all properties, functions, and objects from the script.
