How to get parameter values from SDK objects

[Sam Jones]

When I try and retrieve a value that is shown in the OIP for a BrxHoist object, VW hangs with beach ball of death.

The command that it hangs on is:

ok := GetLocalizedPluginParameter('BrxHoist', 'Load Trim', localName);

The BrxObject parameter list is empty in the plug-in manager, seeming to indicate that it is an SDK object, but the OIP lists a "Load trim" parameter that has an edit field.

If I cannot get the localized name is there a way to check of an object has a parameter list?

 

The following code hangs:

 

PROCEDURE GetLocalName;

VAR
    localName1 : STRING;
    localName2 : STRING;
    ok : BOOLEAN;

BEGIN
    ok := GetLocalizedPluginName('BrxHoist', localName1);
    AlrtDialog(concat('localName1 = ', localName1));
    ok := GetLocalizedPluginParameter('BrxHoist', 'Load Trim', localName2);          {Hangs on this call}
    AlrtDialog(concat('localName2 = ', localName2));
END;
RUN(GetLocalName);

@Sam Jones "Load Trim" is the localized name, the call should be

 ok := GetLocalizedPluginParameter('BrxHoist', 'LoadTrim', localName2);

 

You can get the parameter values or record information form SDK objects the same way you get them form VS objects.

Easiest way to see the parameters is using Debug List View or you can see the parameters if you make a worksheet that looks at the hoist.

 

If you want to do it in code you would.

NumFields (BrxHoist Record)

For I := 1 to numfileds

       FieldName = GetField(BrxHoist Record,I)

       GetLocalizedPluginParameter('BrxHoist', 'FieldName', localName);
