I understand the differences between a script and a handler. A getProp/setProp message or trigger is a property handler. If you look at the user guide, there is a section on page 247 titled "Virtual Properties". This is what I was speaking of. The problem I am having is understanding the difference between a property handler and a virtual property handler.
I.E. the way I understand it: A Custom property might be a Date for instance. I could write a setProp or getProp that reformats the date when it is set or given. set the startDate of control "blah" to the date then I could make a virtual getProp that gets the startDate property, manipulates it and returns it. put the startDateYear of control "blah" The difference is that startDateYear doesn't hold a value, just uses getProp to pull the year out of startDate and return it, but makes the code more readable and organized. instead of put year(the startDate of control "blah") Thank you for the response though. And with this clarification of what I think I understand, am I getting that right anyone? -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Virtual-properties-tp1679610p1679691.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
