Subject: Re: global find failing
Here is the entire function (I've commented out everything except what I'm
showing here):
void DoFind(FindParamsPtr findParams)
{
Char header[]="testApp";
FindDrawHeader(findParams, header);
}
I may not be an expert at this but I am aware that I cannot access Global
during a find. The whole purpose of my posting was not to find out why I
can't access globals; that I know.
What I don't know is why the variable "header" is being defined as a global
since it's local to this function. And I did make sure that this function
is in the main segment of my code.
I made the variable a const and also made sure "Pool Strings" was not
checked in the preferences. Is there anything else in the preferences I
need to look at?
