Hi all, sorry but I've got another .Net Assembly target question.  If I have an NVO that I use in both a Powerbuilder Classic Windows application and also in a .Net Assembly, is there a way for that NVO to know whether it is being executed as a Win 32 application or as a .Net Assembly?

Look at the conditional compilation section of the documentation:

#IF PBDOTNET will tell you that the code is running in any of the .Net targets.

#IF PBNATIVE will tell you that's it's running from a Win32 target.

A code snippet I have used:



// Instance variable

private boolean dotNetAssembly



// Constructor

#if defined PBDOTNET then

   dotNetAssembly= true

#end if



// Elsewhere in code

if not dotNetAssembly then

   MessageBox("Warning", "...", Exclamation!)

end if

return ll_errorCode

Perfect!  Thanks Bruce. For some silly reason I had thought the conditional compilation had been removed with the .Net WinForms target.

Thanks Michael, I think I will use similar code.
