pwtitlebar command question ...

[willy113]

Hi PP48 Rep,

I have been using the ProcommPlus "pwtitlebar" command for some time now with no issue, but as time goes on I have kept on expanding my string length out to now over 100 chars.
- When I pass a %d or %i string variable into a func that displays to this titlebar, after 100 str len, I get back a
huge like 8 character number even though I am initializing this var = 0 for debugging purposes.
- I read the spec, and it states 64 char is the limit but I can get it work way over 120 chars, but now I think I finally pushed past some programming limitiation.

- Any ideas on the subject or inside knowledge of pwtitlebar you could share would be appreciated ....

I played around with this a little bit and couldn't reproduce the problem. Can you post your code for me to look at?

Thanks knob,

After reveiwing the code to send to you, I found a code bug. I had more passed params into a strfmt command (7 intead of 8) so I was bascically trying to put a string var into an int, so that explains the big number you will see in the screen shots below. Usually ProcommPlus flags this during compilation ??

I am able to pass about 125 chars in pwtitlebar, so maybe the docs should be updated, since it says ONLY 64 char max size ??

P.S. How can I attach screen shots or other docs.
I could not get cut-n-paste to work ....

You would think that the ASPECT compiler would catch when more variables are passed into a strfmt command, but I have seen this behavior in the past as well.

When you ask about attaching documents, do you mean into your messages here?

Hi Knob,

Yes, for future reference, how do I attach or paste into this message window any text or graphics so that I can send you example code or Windows screen shots, etc. ??

I don't think there is a way to attach a file, but you can use TGML (click the Process TGML link below the edit field where you would respond for more information) to link an image you have posted on a different server or to format text in a particular manner. I've not used it myself, so can't say much more than that.
