I am writing an external and it works fine. But I can not get the error
message.
The C-source inside the external looks like this:
*pass = False;
*error = True;
*retstring = istrdup ("This is my error message");
return;
In Revolution I programed this:
on mouseUp
lock error dialogs
ErrorReturnValueTestCommand 1
end mouseUp
on errorDialog myError
put myError into field "errorResultTextField"
end errorDialog
But the contents of myError is this, instead of the error text I
generated inside the external:
573,3,1,ErrorReturnValueTestCommand
241,3,1,mouseUp
353,0,0,button id 1023 of card id 1002 of stack
"/Users/marco/Desktop/Revolution External/Revolution
2.6.1/SUSBTest.rev"
How can I get a message from an external when *error=True ?
I am not very familiar with Revolution. I am only writing an external
for OSX. But after examining the complete mailing archive and the
revolution Documentaion, I can't find out what's going wrong. It seems
that I am the single external programmer with this problem.
best regards
Marco
