LibManager Edit Trigger/Callback

dfick

 Hi,

 In the Virtuoso Library Manager when a cellview is double-clicked, it automatically opens for edit. However, I would like some things to happen just before a cell view is opened for edit (make a backup copy, change file permissions, etc). Is there a way to set an event trigger or callback that occurs when a cellview is opened for edit? The only commands that I could find with similar functionary are "ccpPostExpandTrigger", which is trigger for copying files, and "cdsLibManager.main dblClickEditCellView", which is a flag enabling/disabling the double-click-to-edit functionality.

 Thanks

 Edit: I am using ic-6.1.5.500.16

     Thanks, I distilled your example down to a smaller case that does what I need. Before auto-checkout it checks the views to see if they need to be set to editable, so on read it wont do anything, on write-but-already-editable it wont do anything, but on write-but-not-editable it is ready to do something.


    procedure(triggerPing(@optional objList isBatch)

           foreach(mapcar obj objList
                if(obj->type != 'ddViewType
                      then
                            t ; only check for view types
                      else
                            access_modes = ddGetObjAccess(obj "o")
                            rexCompile("w")
                            is_writable = rexExecute(access_modes)

                            if(is_writable
                                then
                                     printf("View is already editable\n")
                                     t ; don't need to do anything
                                else
                                     printf("Need to set edit mode\n")
                                     printf("PING\n");
                                     t
                            )
                 )
           )
