another option - depending on your view of doing this... is Code injection.
At startup of the host (will have to be started at least once interpretedly) you copy the code for the event call method into a method in the host. it looks something like this (interpreted host and component): METHOD GET CODE(<method_to_inject>) METHOD SET CODE(<Source_code>;<Host_New_Method_Name>) Alternatively (compiled component and interpreted host): - At component shut down, write the method(s) to be injected to disk as text (I use the resources folder) - at host or component startup read the text files METHOD SET CODE(<code_from_text_file>;<Host_New_Method_Name>) Chip On Sun, 10 Nov 2019 18:07:01 +0000, Jeremy Roussak via 4D_Tech wrote: > I’d like to have a method set by ON EVENT CALL to live in a > component.
