Usage
The following comments address Procedure Editor usage issues:
- BEFORE-CLOSE and CLOSE—technically, p_other should be UNKNOWN (?) after a file closes; however, this parameter still shows the last available file name for the procedure file. Unknown (?) only appears if there is no file name.
- BEFORE-RUN, RUN, BEFORE-DEBUG, DEBUG, BEFORE-CHECK-SYNTAX, CHECK-SYNTAX—all use the last specified file name as p_other. The actual file being run or checked is a temporary file with a name like
p01928384.ped
. This name is not used.- If the user tries to close a buffer, then the Procedure Editor first prompts the user to save. The entire save operation events fire before the call to BEFORE-CLOSE.
- NEW is called after a buffer is created. You see the buffer before the NEW event is called. All events are called after the event has finished.
- When you control the handle for the Procedure Editor window, you can manipulate the display of the window. For example, you can add a menu option.
The scenario shown in Table 3–2 applies to the Procedure Editor.
