9.239 TEMPLATE_@@SET_FILS
Þ Note: Built-In Function Rules.
Allows file(s) from a list of files previously built by the TEMPLATE_@@GET_FILS Built-In Function to be "selected" for use within an application template that will be executed later.
Functionally this Built-In Function acts like the second step of the application template command @@GET_FILS in that a "selection" of files is made and set up for use by the application template.
In an application template the user selects files by entering a non-blank value beside them at the workstation. To perform this action from an RDML function use this Built-In Function.
This Built-In Function can only be used against a function that has been previously placed into an edit session by using the START_FUNCTION_EDIT Built-In Function.
Special Note: This Built-In Function provides access to very advanced facilities that basically allow RDML functions to construct new RDML functions.
This is a very specialized area that requires very good knowledge of the LANSA product. Use of this Built-In Function in a "commercial" application (e.g. Order Entry) is not normal and should not be attempted.
Þ This is a Specialized Built-In Function for use in a Development Environment only.
