Testing for tDatabase EOF
Posted: Tue Jun 01, 2021 09:35 PM

To All

How do I test for tDatabase end of file

If oDbf:Eof // fails

If oDbf:Eof() // fails

Any Ideas ?

Thanks

Rick,

I have never seen it fail. Can you provide sample code to show the failure?

FWH 18.05/xHarbour 1.2.3/BCC7/Windows 10

James

I am retrofitting a billing app for my State Governmental customer that has me under contract to encrypt all their confidential billing information ( after the colonial pipeline hack ) .. I am re-tooling my app to use tdababase in certain modules that are temporally created on the local hard drive that I use as a repository for the dencrypted data.

oDbf:eof DOES work ... just my mistake in NOT passing the oDbf object to the correct ( retrofited ) function .. a rookie mistake

Thanks

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

IF EOF()

or

IF .NOT. FOUND()

or

   LOCAL lEof := .F.

   lEof  := oDbf:Eof()

   ? lEof
