How to get current session of an opened ADE Verifier view.

Hi All

Does anyone know how to get the current session of an opened ADE Verifier view.

I check the manual, there are two commands to get the session info

  • verifGetActiveSession: here the lib, cell and view info need to be specifier.
  • verifGetAllActiveSessions: it returns all the active session.

So neither of them fit with my request :(

Besides, I have tried to apply "geGetEditCellView()" and "hiGetCurrentWindow()" to the opened ADE Verifier, but both of them return nil.
I assume the "ADE Verifier" is different a object type. Can someone gives a brief explanation for it?

Best Regards

Yi

    Hi Yi,

    Because the UI for Verifier is not done with the usual hi or de APIs, custom bind keys or menus are not supported, nor is the idea of having a custom menu.

    However, I think there should be a way to do this, because otherwise you can't easily add custom code to address limitations of Verifier. I guess on your app form (from the CIW) you could have a cyclic field at the top to indicate which of the open verifier sessions you wish to apply the changes to?

    As we're already working through customer support, I'll file some enhancement CCRs related to bindkey and current window support.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
