Is there a way that I can tell whether code is running under AREV32 versus running under OI? (OpenInsight 64-bit)

The IFDEF compiler directives don't seem to work since I believe those were intended to detect whether running under Advanced Revelation (DOS) versus Open Insight.

Is there any table that I can try to open to deduce whether running under one or the other or is there another compiler directive?

Thank you,

Hi Jim,

Compiler directives only apply at compile time - for runtime you need something like this: 


   declare function getOIState



   // (from REV_CONVCONTEXT_EQUATES)

   equ OISTATE_NORMAL$      to 0

   equ OISTATE_CTO$         to 1

   equ OISTATE_AREV32$      To 2



   oiState = getOIState()

   begin case

      case ( oiState == OISTATE_AREV32$ )

          // Code is running in Arev32 context ...  etc

   end case

Regards

Jim - Clearly Carl's response is the right and proper way to do this, but you could also look at RetStack() and identify telltale signs of AREV32 calls.
