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.

Nomads / Re: redefining keys

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

Nomads / redefining keys
« on: February 24, 2022, 07:25:45 AM »
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?

Mike,
Two ENTERs? Nice! I never thought of that.
Here is what I use finally:

Something like:

-}read record (1,key="abc")rec$
-}extCmd rec$

Programming / taskbar location and size
« on: September 29, 2021, 09:16:12 AM »
How can I retrieve the location and size of the taskbar?
I can determine the current monitor with fin(0,"XYMonitors") and obj(0). But a call to *winapi;getMonitorInfo only seems to work for monitor #1.

Let me rephrase the question.
Using [MYSQL], how can I pass the certificates to the OPEN command?

Thin Client/WindX / Re: MS Window Size
« on: June 30, 2021, 09:46:11 AM »
I can remember a similar behavior a long time ago. As far as I can recall the solution was to make sure each user use his/her own pvx.ini. Otherwise the last one wins. Use "%userprofile%\pvx.ini" when spawning the new process.
