OnCellSelelect event

[JD Kromkowski]

OnCellSelect event NR: Actually, I use the oncellselect event of the grid to get that information. JDK: I’ve not been able to successfully get that to work with the data-aware grid. NR: Hmm. It should work. I will have a look see. JDK: OK, I’ve inspected the .sxf, and I don’t see anything written that corresponds to the OnCellSelect event of that data aware grid. And when I look at the generated .sma code I don’t see anything there either. And when I go back to the form in the editor, the on Events function don’t have anything in them. So it looks like whatever you put is not only being ignored but in fact is not being saved anywhere. I think this is a bug.

I don't understand what you mean when you say "I don't store the internal
connections to the various events"

In form designer, in the properties dialog that creates the data aware
grid, there is the list of events. You can ostensible add a name of a
function.

So, e.g. in the space next to oncellselect I type in "OnCell", presumably
this means that when a cell is selected the function OnCell() is called.

But it isn't being saved. In fact, if you go back and look at it, OnCell
is gone. So it isn't being written to the .sxf, nor if you save to
program is it being written to the generated .sma.

So I really think this is a bug.

I thought temporarily correct this by just manually adding:

<oncellselect>OnCell</oncellselect>

to the .sxf right above

</sdf1datagrid>

While I now get a "reaction" when I select a cell, I also get a error

Error (39): Incorrect number of parameters
Error: a statement of function "dataform1oncellselect" was executed
unsuccessfully
There is no source code available for the statement

I don't store the internal connections to the various events. That would
let anyone override them, which would immediately break the
functionality. Did you define an oncellselect event in the dialog? If
so, that should show up in the .sxf.

That does sound like a bug John, let me have a closer look at it. I will
get back to you.

As it turns out, for whatever reason. oncellselect got left out of the
support in the form designer. I have now added it in and tested it, so
it will be there with the next quarterly release.

This may be related to the functionality having been missing somewhere.
I just tested it in the repaired version and it is working as it should.
