Re: Icon & Picture Button Sources...
so migrating existing forms involves manually searching through said folder and then manually assigning these icons?

RE: Icon & Picture Button Sources...
4D v16R6+ has a set of new icons to replace the old ones: https://blog.4d.com/icon-modernization-continues/ They should be located at the installed location in a resources > images > buttons folder.

DataClass Name from Entity
When trying to save an entity, the entity may be locked. If it is locked, 4D returns information in status property about the locked status. That's helpful information that can be displayed for the user. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to determine the name of the dataclass for the entity. Given an entity, $entity_O, how do I determine the dataclass name? -- Douglas von Roeder 949-336-2902 ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **

We use it for pre-release code review as well as post-release troubleshooting, if needed. It helped improve code quality on an 8 developer team.

Icon & Picture Button Sources...
As I move some v11 projects to v17, the old picture buttons fail to work as expected since they were using a PICT image and since those file formats are no longer supported by 4D. So, were do you find modern pictures to use for your picture buttons? Optimally it would be great if these are already setup with the 4 possible states recognized by 4D.

This means that when a method creates new object $no:=New object fact that $no is local variable matters to the extend that, when methods ends, $no gets out of scope and the refcount of the object is decreased by 1. If no other variable refers to the object, it is destroyed. However, there may be other variables that refer to that object, if you do something like procesVar:=$no or SomeMethod($no) In this case, object exist till last variable stopp to reference it. -- Peter Bozek ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Re: Shared Object - NOT!
If a method creates an object ($no:=new object), the object is destroyed when the method ends? and if a method creates a new shared object ($nso:=new shared object), the object continues to exist after the method ends, but the reference to it is lost? Does 4D know to clear the object in this case?
