Re: Limit on the number of parameters?

2022-06-07 Thread Craig Newman via use-livecode
I have never had any issues with the number of parameters that can be passed to 
a custom handler. Nor any issue with “seeing” them all in the debugger. I would 
say that the largest number of params I ever sent was about 15.

Thanks Phil. I checked in the debugger both the call to the function where the 
5th value was passed as a literal, and in the function itself where the 
parameter was no defined. It may be something with the SE debugger I'll look 
into it.

Re: Limit on the number of parameters?

2022-06-06 Thread Phil Davis via use-livecode

In LC 9.6.7, this works in a button script:

   on mouseUp
    tryThis "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "66", "777", "", "9", "10"
   end mouseUp


   command tryThis
    put the params -- the handler name and all 10 params are there
   end tryThis


I often stuff lots of data items into an array and use the array as a 
param. For me, that makes life easier. YMMV.

Limit on the number of parameters?

2022-06-06 Thread Bob Sneidar via use-livecode
Is the number of parameters passed to a custom handler limited to 4? I do not 
seem to be getting a 5th parameter to pass to a function I use.
