Hi
The message "empty trigger" refers to an "unfavorable" place in the code.
Example
trigger hello
; not
; used
; anymore
trigger world <======= X ==========
$1 = "This trigger does something"
Compiling gives a message "empty trigger" (in some line number)
When you click on the messag, UnifAce you jumps to position X.
Oops, "trigger world" is filled, what is wrong here ?
I understand why the parser selects this position: The first position in this line is the first statement after "trigger hello", and so "hello" is empty.
But from the programmer's point of view, the faulty part is either the entire line "trigger hello" or at least the end of this line.
This "bug" should be relatively easy to fix, or :-)

Hi Norbert
Yes, trigger can be defined with "user names"
This can be used, for example, when calling UnifAce from "outside", e.g. from a WEB environment or OCX-containers
Ingo
trigger
Declare a trigger.
trigger TriggerName
{public soap} ; Execute trigger only
{public web | partner web }
{ScopeBlock}
{ParamsBlock}
{VariablesBlock}
ProcScript
{return {(Value) }}
end
Declaration
- TriggerName-valid trigger name. For more information, see the "Triggers: System" and "Triggers: Interactive" topics.
- public web-trigger can be called from a web browser, RESTful service, or other web client when used in DSPs, USPs, and Service components. For more information, see the "web" topic.
- ScopeBlock-specifies the data to be included in a DSP request-response exchange. For more information, see the "scope...endscope" topic.
- ParamsBlock-defines the trigger's parameters, if any. For more information, see the "params...endparams" topic.
- VariablesBlock-defines the local variables used by the trigger, if any. For more information, see the "Variables" topic.
