I don't think it's any different than returning from a
function..although I haven't done it this way much. I'm not sure if
you can pass arrays this way for instance but that could just be
converted into a return-delimited table.
This would be useful for a custom Answer or Ask dialog that would
work the same way with the same params.
Is anyone aware of any drawbacks in using 'the result' as a
container for passing, say, a bunch of records from one handler to
another? Like this:
on processRecords
getRecords
put the result into tRecordList
repeat for each line tLine in it
-- your code here
end repeat
end processRecords
on getRecords
put the uBigList of stack "XYZ" into tList
delete stack "XYZ" -- to remove it from memory
return tList
end getRecords
Any drawbacks? Speed or memory or other issues?
I realize there are clearer, cleaner ways to do this... in a new dev
(read "perfect") world at least. But I'm not in that world at the
moment.
