Overview

In OpenInsight' event-driven paradigm, event handlers do much of the work. However, more complex tasks often require more complex code to perform the actual processing work for which the application is being created. This more complex code is written in the form of stored procedures, either created by the developer or provided with OpenInsight. The language used by the developer to create these stored procedures in OpenInsight is BASIC+.

In this chapter, definitions are provided for various types of stored procedures, the requirements for writing stored procedures are listed, and examples of a subroutine and a function are presented. "The System Editor" section provides information about System Editor functionality, steps for accessing, a description of the interface, and procedures for using the System Editor. A brief discussion of the Debugging tool closes the chapter. Additional information on these topics is provided in the Programmer's Reference Manual.
