This rises the question how does PxPlus find the closing curly braket? Are there any performance aspects?
As I don't like premature RETURNs or EXITs my coding style looks like this.

The issue is a result of the line oriented nature of the language. IF ... THEN ... ELSE ... will basically process what is on the line.

Code: [Select]
SUB_ROUTINE:
if condition {
txt$ = "Are "
txt$ += "these "
txt$ += "lines "
txt$ += "processed "
txt$ += "in "
txt$ += "some "
txt$ += "way "
txt$ += "during "
txt$ += "execution "
txt$ += "in "
txt$ += "order "
txt$ += "to "
txt$ += "find "
txt$ += "the "
txt$ += "closing "
txt$ += "curly "
txt$ += "bracket?"
print txt$
}
returnWould that routine be faster using a premature RETURN?2

Thank you. I'll take a look at it.

Devon,
I want to drag files from a PxPlus listbox and drop it on a control of an external application.

I have a listbox containing filenames and want to drag a file from it to another non-PxPlus-application. How can I do that?

I wasn't aware of 'GridMLVersion'.
That comes close, yes. I hope they accept it.
Thank you.

A customer wants to end cell editing with <ENTER> and move to the next editable cell according to the tabmode.
I tried:
I tried:
Code: [Select]
preinput [next] $09$ ---> does nothing
preinput [next] -1015 ---> moves to next control
How can I achieve this?

Programming / Re: ERR option ignored

The error is thrown by the NEW() function. The constructor as already been left, so I cannot check anything inside the object any more.

Programming / ERR option ignored
« on: July 20, 2022, 10:42:32 AM »
For a few weeks we encounter a strange error 65 every now and then, when our programs create a COM object.
According to Eric we should check for the object reference > 0. But I wonder why the err option is ignored in these cases.
Code: [Select]
ON_CREATE:
def object outlook, "[LCL]Outlook.Application", err = *next
if not(tcb(2)) then nameSpace = outlook'getNameSpace("MAPI")
returnThis has been a save way ever since. On the WindX side MSG(-1) returns "Exception occured (err/ret=2/0)"According to Eric we should check for the object reference > 0. But I wonder why the err option is ignored in these cases.

I want to retrieve this information at runtime. SQLGetInfo sounds promising. Can you please post a sample? I can't find anything in the docs.

I did so and the DD shows no names any more. But fin(1,"FILE_CREATE") still returns the old names.

I removed kno #2 and #3 from a file and added a new kno #2. After a click on "Update File" that kno has the name of the old kno #2.
The segment notation is correct but the name is wrong. How can I get rid of it?
