Hi all

Simple question here on callx - D3 on Windows:



I'm trying to do a simple "catch" whenever someone edits a file.

So, I write a simple subroutine and compile it and flash compile with 'o' option (per documentation)

I add the call to attribute 8 in the dict entry of the file:


and proceed to ed(it) an item expecting my subroutine to trigger - but it doesn't

WHY?

Is there anything I'm missing?

The subroutine is: (really complex :))


I'll just leave this here for constructive comment - Thanks

Stefano

    Hi Stefano,

    Four things I would do:
    1) Use the full path for the CALLX --> callx account,bp_file, sg.test  - changing account and bp_file to the appropriate entries
    2) Add an '(item)' at the end of the first line of your program.
    3) Log off and log back on again.
    4) Try the test again.

    Cheers.

    Thanks @Chris Macadam

    Logoff and Login did the trick :)
