Using Informix-4gl compiled help messages
Posted in 1995
Hello Informixers! This message is similar to a previous one I wrote. Anybody knows how works the MKMESSAGE utility? I guess that it create a file "indexed" by the help number. But, how can I access this file in a good way without call the SHOWHELP function? I trying to put my error messages in a file, as Informix products does, and then use a function that access that file in a efficiently way. --************************************************************************** ********** NOTE TO INFORMIX: WHY WE CANNOT MANAGE THE ERROR MESSAGES AS THE HELP MESSAGES? FOR EXAMPLE: WE NEED ONE MORE CLAUSE IN THE "OPTIONS" STATATEMENT: ERROR FILE, AND A FUNCTION FOR ACCESS THE FILE: SHOWERROR. THAT'S ALL!! --************************************************************************** ********** TIA ////// +------------------------------ooo-O-O-ooo--------------------------------+ | U | | Melvin Perez Cedano Santo Domingo, Dom.
