Yes, please do. Forcing API developers to hold the definition object
alive to keep the document open sounds ... inconvinient to me, at least.
side notes:
- Passing an ActiveConnection to the loadComponentFromURL call should
not be necessary (if I'm not wrong) - any reasons you do so? Did it
cause problems when you didn't?
- instead of doing a loadComponentFromURL, you should also be able to
do a (shorter?)
oFormDoc = oFormDef.execute( _
"openDesign", oFormDef.createCommandIdentifier(), _
<some_null_arg> )
because a document definition is also a UCB content.
- your macro creates a connection, but does not dispose it anywhere,
which is a resource leak. I hope that this is just because you
shortened the macro :)
Thanks & Ciao
Frank
