Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.1x
Windows
Using OpenEdge Architect
SYMPTOM(s):
Context tooltip displays different content within preprocessor include in Architect Editor
Using variable name as include parameter
Display of tooltip for code {includefile.i someVar}
Tooltip for variable inside preprocessor include does not display variable type
CAUSE:
This is expected behavior.
At the level of a preprocessor include the identifiers used as parameter have no semantic meaning. Therefore they cannot be distinguished as variables, buffers, tables, etc. any more. This is because an include parameter which happens to be a variable name in the including procedure can be used for different purposes (such as message) in the included file.
FIX:
As a workaround, type the name of the variable outside the preprocessor include and then display its tooltip.
