SYMPTOM(s):
adm2/visual.p/setEnabledObjHdls function has input param data type of HANDLE
CAUSE:
Known problem, development aware. Indeed, the EnabledObjHdls property is defined as CHARACTER in visprop.i. setEnabledObjHdls will not be able to manage a list of handles (see plural in the function name) if the datatype of input param pcHdls is HANDLE
Strangely, at the moment, the function works with a single item, because the 4GL can convert it to char on the fly thanks to the use of BUFFER-FIELD():BUFFER-VALUE (use of the {set} pseudo syntax)
Same as the little program bellow which does not fail:
DEF TEMP-TABLE t
FIELD c AS CHARACTER.
CREATE t.
BUFFER t:BUFFER-FIELD("c"):BUFFER-VALUE = SESSION:FIRST-CHILD.
MESSAGE t.c SKIP "You see, it does not fail and converts handle to char"
VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX INFO BUTTONS OK.
CAUSE:
Bug# 20030822-013
FIX:
Change datatype of pcHdls in adm2/visual.p/setEnabledObjHdls to CHARACTER
