How do I script a Smarts ASL equivalent to the DMCTL or Perl "notify" command?

How do I script the following DMCTL command in Smarts ASL:

dmctl -s INCHARGE-AM-PM notify Host::HostABC::DiscoveryError

The Smarts ASL equivalent to the DMCTL notify command is as follows:

hostObj = object("Host","HostABC";
notify(hostObj->DiscoveryError);

To clear the event in Smarts ASL:

hostObj = object("Host","HostABC");
clear(hostObj->DiscoveryError);
