FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.1A
SYMPTOM(s):
Calling a method from a user defined class causes error 3538 to occur when doing a syntax check.
Unknown attribute <name>. (3538)
Only happens when referencing a database in the query.
Can be displayed with the following example:
- Save the following text in a .cls file in the working directory:
class TestClass:
method public integer getTableID ():
return 12.
end.
end class.
- Use the following code to reference the class and compile the code:
define variable tc as testclass no-undo.
tc = new testclass().
find customer where customer.custnum = tc:getTableID() no-lock no-error.
message available customer.
CAUSE:
This is a known issue being investigated by development.
FIX:
Assign the class method to a variable first:
define variable tc as testclass no-undo.
define variable i as integer no-undo.
tc = new testclass().
i = tc:getTableID().
find customer where customer.custnum = i no-lock no-error.
message available customer.
