Title: update global functions at runtime
Post by: Thomas Bock on August 04, 2023, 05:55:13 AM

Each time we update global functions on a Windows system they don't work any more. PxPlus throws many types of errors depending on how the functions have changed. Here is what we do in order to update/reload the global functions:

Code: [Select]

bkpPC = prm('PC')
set_param 'PC' = 0
! do update actions
set_param 'PC' = bkpPC
drop pth("globalFunctions.pvx"), err = *next
call "globalFunctions.pvx" ! addr itself

What needs to be done for a successful update?
