I find myself writing PilotScript to check property value types frequently enough that I decided to write a component for the job.  I thought I would submit it here for anyone who might find it useful.

On the Property List parameter, you can specify a comma-separated list of property names, or use "*" (without quotes) for all properties (this is the default).  The component will create properties named

_Type

and

_NumValues for array properties.

You can also set the Remove Original Properties parameter to True to keep only these new properties.  By default the original properties will be kept.

You can find out more about property value types by searching for "property value types" in the documentation.  From Pipeline Pilot:

Help->Server Home Page->Help Center (User Resources)

The search field is on the upper right of the page.

The component is a standard Custom Manipulator with some parameters added.  The Expression parameter group has been moved to the Implementation tab of the component, so have a look there if you want to view the code.

If you find the component useful, you can right-click on it and choose "Save As..." to save it for later reuse.

Cheers,

Craig
