DCVARGROUP

[c-tec]

Hello,
DCVARGROUP is very helpful for me, but get a problem calling the function twice, the vars are protected. So I save the classes in a static array, and destroy them when the thread is closed.
Now you forget classdestroy() without problems and it is also threadsave. Maybe someone can use it.

Code: Select all

#INCLUDE "class.CH"

FUNCTION DC_VarGroup( cName, aVars )
******************************************************************
static aClass
LOCAL oClass, nAttr, aIvar, xRet, oVars, oVarsInstance, i, ;
      aVars2 := {},cPName,aThreads := threadinfo(3),lFound := .f.,x,y,nDel := 0,nSysHndl := -1
default aClass to {}
FOR i := 1 TO Len(aVars)
  AAdd(aVars2,aVars[i,1])
NEXT
DEFAULT cName := '1'
cPName := cName
cName := 'VARGROUP_' + str(threadid(),0) + "_" + cName
for x := 1 to len(aThreads)
     if aThreads[x,1] = threadid()
          nSysHndl := aThreads[x,2]
          exit
     endif

Rudolf -

You are correct. That is a much better implementation of DC_VarGroup().

Thank you.

I want to study this concept a bit more before adding it to the next release.

Are you using the DCVARGROUP command in your application, or the DC_VarGroup() function?

Hello Roger,
thank you, I user DCVARGROUP and have now added this function in my Lib so that I must not change your sourcecode.
