Hi.
I can't find this information in the doc (most probably because of my english).
Is there a way to call the "parent" trigger when overriding it in a form ?
To be more clear, let's say I have an entity with some specific code in the trigger (for example the write trigger).
Then I have a form with this entity, and I want to add a specific code, but only when in this form.
A solution could be to copy the original trigger code and add what's needed. But by doing that I will duplicate code.
Another solution could be to add my specific code in the entity with a test, but it will mean to recompile all the forms with the entity.
So what I'm asking, is there a way to do something like this in an entity in a form
trigger write
call MyEntity.trigger(write)
do this
do that
end
Thanks.

I would typically use entity operations (either collection or occurrence as needed) and/or include procs for the shared code, e.g.
Example: calling an occurrence operation
On the entity:
Define OpWrite as an occurrence operation (see the Handles documentation).
Call it in trigger write.
On the form, create a variation that uses the shared operation
trigger write
$occhandle()->OpWrite()
; do this & that
end
Example: using an include proc
Here the entity and form variation uses Include ProcScript defined in SYSTEM_LIBRARY::WRITE_LOGIC instead (it could be in another library).
Additional code would be added to the form, e.g.
trigger writeIf needed, you can use the precompiler #define #ifdefined or #ifundefined directives to add additional code only once.
#include WRITE_LOGIC
; do this & that
end
A combination of both approaches could also be used.

we did it the same way as David.
In the Model Entity
trigger write
$occhandle->OP_MODEL_WRITE()
write
end
operation OP_MODEL_WRITE
if ($dbocc = 0)
CRE_DATE.<$entName> = $datim
CRE_USER.<$entName> = $$KURZZEICHEN_SYSTEM
endif
MOD_DATE.<$entName> = $datim
MOD_USER.<$entName> = $$KURZZEICHEN_SYSTEM
end
In the Form:
trigger write
; do things before
$occhandle->OP_MODEL_WRITE()
; do things after
write
end

I didn't know it was possible to add an operation directly in the model, but it's cool it's possible
