3 Commentsto As I said earlier I am extra cautious of my mobile resources (power, ram and processing, etc…).

   I would say that it merely depends on what is done in the resume event script… But calling 5 times or 20 times the same short script should not make a big difference. The script engine is interpreted but runs reasonably fast. Also scripts are preprocessed once: running the same script many times doesn’t bring a big penalty when compared to running the same script once.

   Pierre Hébert So, in conclusion we can say it is safe even if am running different 10 short scripts at the same time.

   
   

   
   

   How can you measure a script if it is big or small. What about below:

   
   

   
   

   var e=LL.getEvent();

   
   

   
   

   var c=LL.getCurrentDesktop();

   
   

   var pnl = c.getItemByName(‘pnlPersonal’).getContainer();

   
   

   
   

   //remove existing

   
   

   var items = pnl.getItems().length + 1;

   
   

   for (i = 1; i < items; i++) {

   
   

   var remitem = pnl.getItemByName(“Item”+i);

   
   

   pnl.removeItem(remitem); }

   
   

   
   

   var items = e.getData();

   
   

   var itemsarr = items.split(“~”);

   
   

   var totitems = itemsarr.length;

   
   

   
   

   
   

   //Shortcut class assignment

   
   

   var i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);

   
   

   if (itemsarr[0] == “LLTasks”) {

   
   

       i.setClassName(“com.ninefolders.hd3”, “com.ninefolders.hd3.activity.TodoActivity”);

   
   

   } else if (itemsarr[0] == “LLEmails”) {

   
   

       i.setClassName(“com.ninefolders.hd3”, “com.ninefolders.hd3.activity.MailActivityEmail”);

   
   

   } else {    i.setClassName(“com.google.android.calendar”, “com.android.calendar.LaunchActivity”);

   
   

   }

   
   

   
   

   
   

   //Items creation and format

   
   

   if ((itemsarr[0] == “LLCalendar” && itemsarr[1]!= “No Upcoming Events”)) {

   
   

   
   

   for (m = 1; m < totitems; m++) {

   
   

   
   

   var event = itemsarr[m];

   
   

   var eventarr = event.split(“|”);

   
   

   
   

   if (eventarr[4] == 0) { var apptime = eventarr[2]+”-“+eventarr[3] } else {apptime =”Full Day”}

   
   

   
   

   var vpos = pnl.getItems().length;

   
   

   var newitem = pnl.addShortcut(eventarr[1]+” “+eventarr[6]+”\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t”+eventarr[0]+”\n”+apptime+”\t\t\t\t\t\t”+eventarr[5],i,0,0);

   
   

   newitem.setName(“Item” + m);

   
   

   newitem.setPosition(0, vpos);

   
   

   
   

   newitem.getProperties().edit()

   
   

   .setBoolean(“s.iconVisibility”, false)

   
   

   .setBoolean(“s.labelShadow”, false)

   
   

   .setInteger(“s.labelFontColor”, 0xff000000)

   I wouldn’t call this a short script considering that there are loops iterating over an unknown number of items.

   
   

   The best is probably to mesure time using for instance new Date().getTime() at the beginning and end of the script.

   
   

   If this script is run in the resume event of the desktop, then I assume this shouldn’t be called too frequently. Something under 200ms or 300ms won’t probably be noticeable.
