Josef,
Operationally it really doesn't matter where the flag is placed since in my
code there is only one place for which it is tested.

Conceptually Views is the correct place,
but as you say, this is a hack anyway.

I would not object to leaving it as Robert posted.

A comment should of course be added to the global variable. Not required if it is adequately documented, which it must be. I would put it in Views for two reasons: 1 - Views has a Docu file, HostWindows does not (or only an empty one!). 2 - Client code has to IMPORT Views anyway, requiring it to al...

DGDanforth

Doug, does that mean that docCreated is set to FALSE initially (before the Restore is called) and set to TRUE at the end of CreateDoc (after the Restore is called)? The code in your Restore method would then be something like: IF HostWindows.docCreated THEN ... (* draw view only once *) (* ELSE ski...

Perhaps

Code: Select all

VAR docCreated: BOOLEAN;

would be better since the user wants to know the status.

Robert,
I have implemented your fixups and for 4 modules they seem to work correctly (only one call to my draw routines).
I'll continue using this and will let you know if any problems arise.
Thank you.

In my opinion that is a poor design.
The framework needs to be redesigned so that an "Open" calls "Restore" only once.

I am happy to report that deletion of the Code/Controllers.ocf file does indeed allow me to
run the .951 version.

Thank you very much Josef.

If you start without the /USE option it should work. So, there must be something in your /USE dir. Let's review the error message in detail: "Controllers.pick not found (imported from Containers)" This says that Controllers.pick is not found. Controllers.pick is new in blackbox-1.7.1-b1.9...

I do not have a Containers nor Controllers module in my /USE directory.

There may be an inconsistency on your side.
Are you starting blackbox.exe with the /USE option?

yes
