Par2: IP Driver: Set data path 2008-01-04 -- Ron Jolda In your Data.dll
Create a procedure called something like Set_path
Here is the embed code:
!if p1 <> '' ! this is the passed first parameter...
setpath(clip(p1))
! message('set path to ' & p1)
!end
(You can see the messaging commented out because you can actually watch it
on the IP Data Server - the messages will pop up. Easy to do if you are
doing client and server on same machine.)
In your main EXE - use the IPDRV Extended options and Imported Procedure is
set_path........
in the MAIN procedure of the EXE, after you have connected to the server
and before you open the files.
thispath = TDA:pth_name
if thispath <> ''
! message('setting path33 ' & thispath)
IPx.SetConnectionString(IPDRV::OWNER)
IPx.Exec('SET_PATH',thispath,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,) ! call the IP driver
to change to the path for this user
end
IF you uncomment the messaging on both ends, you can get messages from both
the client and server. In any event, this will set the new working path to
"thispath". You are then set to the selected path!
