How to avoid duplicating methods

[Martin Obongita]

Rocco, 
I notice that the doc says I'm 13 years back in Omnis Studio programming.
Thanks anyway, for the technote from Andreas, my first Omnis Studio Instructor.

hi Martin
not to make too fine a point of it.       Table classes are a a specialized object class that is bound to a table.
meaning, you can do almost anything with a table class that you can do with an object class and vice versa after you have instantiated the object or table class
the only difference is how you instantiate either.
eg:
do list.$defineFromTableClass(’table’)
then you can use 
do list.$doSomething

for objects

do object.$newref()
do object.$DoSomething



so they are the same.


in your subwindow, you don’t need to go to the hassle of making an object if your main window has a table class that it is buld from AND your subwindow is using variables from that table class.


if you have a $save or $dowork in your table class you can call it from the main window and the subwindow.  you just need to have a reference to the list.

Rocco,
In the save method I call the verify method which validates and returns errors to the entry fields.
Moving the verify method to table class would break the Do $cinst.$clientcommand.
So moving the save method to an object makes better sense.

everywhere, from the row/list 😉?

Hi All,
I have a sub window that fetches a list from a table class by calling a
method in the main window.
$cwind.$getDataList
I would wish to fetch the same list from the same table but in a different
sub window.
I do not want to copy the method from one window to another.
Is there a function that can call a method in a main window(A) from a sub
window of main window (B)?
I cannot inherit the window because Window (B) is performing a different
function.

Kind regardsMartin Obongita
