Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9
OpenEdge 10.0x
OpenEdge 10.1A
SYMPTOM(s):
Trying to use a picture file stored in a Procedure Library (PL file) in an ActiveX
Warning message "ProcedureLibrary.pl<<imageFile>> contains an invalid path."
CAUSE:
This is expected behaviour. As per the documentation:
"A Progress 4GL r-code library is a collection of r-code procedures combined in a single file. It is similar to an object library in DOS or an archive file on UNIX. However, object libraries and archive files are used solely for efficient storage. R-code libraries allow you to manage and execute r-code procedures more efficiently."
Procedure libraries (aka r-code libraries) are meant to be used for r-code so compatibility with other file types is not guaranteed.
FIX:
Handle the picture files as simple files in a sub directory that is available in the PROPATH, and do not try to handle them in a Procedure/R-Code Library
