I have a class written in FoxPro who's first task upon init is to get some settings out of a table and load them as properties on the object. When I instansiate the object (via com) and call the GetSettings() method there are no errors. However, I don't have any new properties.The code for this is: lo = createobject("Backup.BackupManager") lo.GetSettings() ?lo.FTPhost (Check to see if property exists: ERROR unknown name)
I've made this mistake before. The problem is that COM is a contract between the component and the outside world that says "This is how you call me." If you add the properties at Init time, you violate that contract. Can you add the properties at design time, and just populate them at runtime? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
