IBasic |
Create an object that can invoke a module sub or function.
Namespace: WinWrap.Basic.Server
Assembly: WinWrap.Basic.Server (in WinWrap.Basic.Server.dll)
SyntaxParameters
- prototype String
- This string value is the prototype of the sub or function that will be handled. A module specific Handler's prototype string must begin with "modulepath|", such as, "mymodule.bas|Sub DoIt()". User defined type parameters are NOT allowed. If modulepath is a null string, FileName is used. (The string "|..." is the same as prefixing the string with FileName.) Parameter modifiers like ByVal, ByRef, Optional, ParamArray and () for arrays are allowed.
Return Value
HandlerA Handler object. If prototype is invalid null (Nothing for Visual Basic) is returned.
Remarks
The IDE shows the Handler in the object/proc drop down lists.
This method must be called BEFORE the target code is loaded.
Macro/Module Paths
Macro/module paths are typically file paths. However, it is sometimes useful to work with macros/modules that are not stored as files. A macro/module path is of the form:
C#
[*[*]]path[*]
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| '*' | Paths that being with '*' are non-file system macro/modules. The application provides the methods for reading and writing these files. Paths that begin and end with '*' are hidden from the IDE. User's can't step into or otherwise inspect the contents. |
| '**' | Paths that begin with '**' are non-file system modules. The application provides the methods for reading and writing these files. Running an event-driven module loads it using LoadModule. |
| path | This is the identity of the macro/module. |
