Nagaraj Shanmu

New year 2011 greetings!!

I am learning the form creation in Allegro. (Files attached)

Form1.il

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

procedure(callback_form(form_status)

let(()

println("test form")

);end let

); end procedure

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Form1.form

--------------------------------------------------------------------

#

# Example form file -- goes with form1.il

#

FILE_TYPE=FORM_DEFN VERSION=2

FORM

FIXED

PORT 44 14

HEADER "FORM CREATION DEMO"

TITLE

TEXT "Name"

TLOC 5 1

ENDTEXT


FIELD name

FLOC 9 1

STRFILLIN 25 35

ENDFIELD

ENDTITLE

ENDFORM

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Below is the steps I followed to load the form

    created a simple form file form1.form
    created a simple skill to create the call back function form1.il
    loaded the skill file in SKILL prompt using  

 
Skill > load "form1.il"

function callback_form redefined

t

Skill > axlFormCreate( 'myform "form1.form" nil 'callback_form nil)

nil

Skill >

 
Form is not getting loaded.

Please help me to understand what error I am making.

 
Thanks,

Nagaraj.

    Figured out the issue!!

    There was a syntax error in form creation ‘ TILE’ keyword

    For TILE I used TITLE.


    Thanks,

    Nagaraj.
