Outputting the names and values of macros

Sometimes you need to know the name and value of a macro that has been defined somewhere else. To help myself, I created a Groovy script that reads all the defined macros and their value and prints them to the log. Add this small Groovy script at strategic places in your process to get visibility of what is happening.

for (String macroName : operator.getProcess().macroHandler.getDefinedMacroNames()) {
    String macroValue = operator.getProcess().macroHandler.getMacro(macroName);
    operator.logNote ("Macro name: value: " + macroName + " : " + macroValue);
}
return input;

Edit: Version 5.3 has a new macro view that does this :)
