From CallBack Function

archive

Hi All,

I have a questions on the CallBack function for forms

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Here I create my form using the axl skill function  axlFormCreate

MyForm_GlobalHandle = axlFormCreate('MyForm_GlobalHandle        \
                                                               "MyFormName"                    \
                                                                MyFormPosition                  \
                                                               'MyForm_Callback                \
                                                                t                                          \
                                                                nil )


; Later I create the callback function

procedure( MyForm_Callback(TempFormHandle)
  prog( (aaa bbb)
    (printf "aaa = %L\n" aaa)
    (printf "bbb = %L\n" bbb)
  )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


When I load the skill function I get an error message that insist there there are 2 variables for my callback function. The only way I can remove this error is to add a " prog ( (aaa bbb) )"  to  have 2 variables for my callback function.

May I know what are there 2 values.  When I printf is out.. the values are always  'nil'


Thanks,
newbie

  • Try calling your form like this:
    MyForm_GlobalHandle = axlFormCreate(gensym() "MyFormName" MyFormPosition 'MyForm_Callback t nil)

    What is the verbatim error message that you receive?

    Cheers, Dave

  • Hi Dave,

    I removed the  prog ( (aaa bbb) ....   from my callback function and changed the axlFormCreate code for 2 cases


    1) MyForm_GlobalHandle = axlFormCreate(MyForm_GlobalHandle() "MyFormName" MyFormPosition 'MyForm_Callback t nil)

    E- *Error* eval: undefined function - MyForm_GlobalHandle
    ERROR

     


    2) MyForm_GlobalHandle = axlFormCreate('MyForm_GlobalHandle() "MyFormName" MyFormPosition 'MyForm_Callback t nil)

    E- *Error* axlFormCreate: argument #1 should be a symbol (type template = "stlggg") - (MyForm_GlobalHandle)
    ERROR




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

    Strange thing is that when I tried back the earlier case after removing the prog ( (aaa bbb) ....

    MyForm_GlobalHandle = axlFormCreate('MyForm_GlobalHandle "MyFormName" MyFormPosition 'MyForm_Callback t nil)


    The earlier error I had is gone.

    Anyway Thanks Dave

  • You should follow the example @
    /share/pcb/examples/skill/form/basic/axlform.il

    look at function IFormTest.

    The 1st argument to axlFormCreate should be a global symbol. It is used to store the returned formHandle and you can
    use its nil/formhandle value to see if you already have the form opened.
