I haven't started to look at v17. Are we still limited to 32 characters for Method and Variable names? - Jim Labos - infobase -- Sent from: http://4d.1045681.n5.nabble.com/4D-Tech-f1376241.html ** 4D Internet Users Group

4D already uses some private property names, e.g. __LockerID __NEW __KEY https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17R5/4D/17-R5/dataClassfromCollection.305-4128671.en.html https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17R5/4D/17-R5/Shared-objects-and-shared-collections.300-4128430.en.html so beware. > 2019/08/20 2:12、Chip Scheide via

Re: _ as first character in Method Name [was 64 bit...]

from my 64 Bit compatibility report: "Naming Conventions If Object Notation is enabled, naming conventions of items must not conflict with the object notation format. Even if Object Notation is not enabled, an MSC verify will complain. " and 4D then processes to list all method names, and forms

Re: _ as first character in Method Name [was 64 bit...]

I agree. I haven't found anything indicating a leading underscore is not allowed. Miyako said it's discouraged to avoid unintended consequences. That's a lot different than not allowed. I'm using, and compiling, leading underscore methods in 17r6 without issues. On Mon, Aug 19, 2019 at 9:13 AM

Re: _ as first character in Method Name [was 64 bit...]

Why is 64 bit 4D not going to like it? Spaces are still allowed in method names. You could also use animal__Module_Info (2 underscores) to keep it at the top. John DeSoi, Ph.D. > On Aug 19, 2019, at 10:38 AM, Chip Scheide via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > wrote: > > This causes the

Re: _ as first character in Method Name [was 64 bit...]

related... I name project methods in 'modules', that is the first 3 - 7 characters are the same. i.e. animal_ I also have a 'header method', which is all comments and has a summary of the function of the module. I currently name these 'module headers' with the module name + space +

I use an underscore to start the name of methods which I want to 'float' to the top of the method list. I.E. _Conventions What allowed character(s) can I use instead? Thanks Chip On Sat, 17 Aug 2019 06:03:27 +, Keisuke Miyako via 4D_Tech wrote: > underscore prefixes are reserved for
