Maybe you should take a slightly different approach here.
In the JavaScript framework that comes with NTK Plugin, 4D sets are implemented
as follows (simplified version).
function RecordSet( table )
{
assert( table instanceof Table, 'Table object expected' );
this.id = UUID.new();
this.table = table;
app.eval4D( 116, 'CREATE SET', '([' + this.table.name + '];"' + this.id
+ '")' );
}
So basically a RecordSet is an object with two properties: the id/name of the
set (a UUID) and a reference to the table. There are some more set related
functions that build upon this, but I have not listed those here.
If you would translate this into 4D, you would get something like this:
// (PM) Set_Create
// $1 = Table
// $0 = RecordSet object
C_POINTER($1;$table)
C_OBJECT($0;$recordSet)
C_TEXT($id)
$table:=$1
$id:=Generate UUID
CREATE SET($table->;$id)
OB SET($recordSet;"table";$table;"id";$id)
$0:=$recordSet
Now you have the name of the set and the table it belongs to wrapped in a
single variable. You can then add some more wrapper methods which use this
RecordSet object.
