Parse actionResult

[Eichenbaum]

As example, the following:

actionResult=System.getModule("com.vmware.library.vc.vm.network").getNetworkForGivenNic(vm,nicNumber);

results in:

     DynamicWrapper (Instance) : [VcNetwork]-[class com.vmware.vmo.plugin.vi4.model.VimNetwork] -- VALUE : Network<network-61>'Green'

I only want the string portion for network name; 'Green'. What's the best way to pull this out? I see there is a property 'name' for VcNetwork, but many variations of attempts to reference to this have only produced errors.

Ideas/guidance?

You are being returned an object, not a string.. so your code should actually be a little more like this to get the string value for the name of the network:

var network=System.getModule("com.vmware.library.vc.vm.network").getNetworkForGivenNic(vm,nicNumber);

System.log("Network name: "+network.name);
