Hi.
After a few months, I got some time again to work with JDB (I actually
have 832 unread J Programming emails).
Is it safe to just close a Folder in JDB without closing the database?
load 'data/jdb'
hf=: Open_jdb_ 'c:\windows\temp'
hd=: Open__hf 'test'
|101 Database not found: test: throw
| throw'101 Database not found: ',db
hd=: Create__hf 'test'
hd=: Open__hf 'test'
names__hd ''
COCREATOR ColDups ColHiddens ColKeys ColRefs
ColTab Columns DBDir DBSort DBTrans
Database Locales TabColnames TabCols TabKeys
Tables Trans locDB
Close_jdb_ hf
names__hd ''
|locale error
| names__hd''
As you can see above, I have the "test" database open in my Windows\Temp
directory and after closing the folder, the database locale is not
accessible anymore (as is expected). I'm just wondering if this is a
"safe" shortcut or I should properly close the database first before
closing the folder.
