I am trying to create my own widgets. Widgets are subforms. In the parent form, I want the INSTANCE bound variable to be an object. Inside the FORM METHOD of the widget (i.e. subform) I need to be able to find out the OBJECT NAME of the Parent INSTANCE of this widget. But I cannot find any command that will actually retrieve this information from within the widget’s form method when the INSTANCE is of type Object.
In the subform’s method: OBJECT Get pointer(Object with focus) = nil OBJECT Get pointer(Object current) = nil OBJECT Get name(subform) = “” OBJECT Get pointer(Object subform container) = nil ———— *** So how does the subform’s form method find out the name of its INSTANCE in the parent form? *** This is ridiculous if it cannot just because the bound variable is an object… Please, someone, put me out of my misery by sharing the secret. I cannot see why the widget’s method cannot find out ‘who it belongs to’. — Chris ********************************************************************** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:[email protected] **********************************************************************
