GOAL:
Does the bridge between ABL and .NET work both ways?
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge Architect Category: Visual Designer
OpenEdge 10.2A
Windows
FIX:
The bridge is purposed for communication from the ABL. The only avenue back through the bridge is for .NET event callbacks. "Open Client for .NET" is the correct product to use to call ABL code from .NET.
From a technical perspective it is mainly that the threading and eventing models are extremely different in the CLR and the AVM. The way the bridge works now, Progress has control of the interaction which queues up event callback requests when necessary. Doing this the other way would not be trivial.
