Running programs killed by Undo and Update symbols

archive
archive over 18 years ago

I wondered if anybody else has this problem.
It happens when the program is running (the form is displayed), and I use Undo or Update symbols.
 
Its usually a minor annoyance, except for one program that modifies color and visibility settings. When the program exits normally, the color and visibility settings are restored, but if the program stops abnormally, then they aren't restored.

Does anybody know if this is a fixable problem, or can I put something in the code to detect this and exit gracefully?

Thanks!

- Geoff

    If you create a function that calls makes several axl and Skill calls I would place the errset around that function.
    Placing it around individual axl or Skill APIs would not be a good programming style.

    Basically, it should be placed around a set of related programming like updating the database.
