Presentation Server Basic+ Interface
The Presentation Server exposes an object-based interface (i.e. properties, methods and events) to Basic+ that can be accessed by the following core Stored Procedures:
• Exec_Method
• Forward_Event
• Get_EventStatus
• Get_Property
• Post_Event
• Send_Event
• Set_EventStatus
• Set_Property
• Set_Property_Only
In addition to this there are other supporting Stored Procedures that relate directly to the Presentation Server and allow other Basic+ routines to integrate smoothly with it:
• Create_Dialog
• Dialog_Box
• End_Dialog
• End_Window
• IsEventContext
• Set_Debugger
• Start_MDIChild
• Start_Window
• Yield
Previous versions of OpenInsight also supported the following Stored Procedures that have been deprecated since version 10:
• Send_Message (replaced by Exec_Method)
• Utility (replaced by various SYSTEM and FILESYSTEM object methods)
All of these functions (bar the deprecated ones) are described fully in this section.
