Undocumented SAL
Undocumented features
Here a list of 301 undocumented SAL* and SQL* functions from the narod.ru website.
| Undocumented Sal functions | |
| nNum = SalCurrentLineNumber() | Get the current execution line number of the outline. |
| nNum = SalDataGetFieldData( hWndCol, aArray ) | Fills an array with values from a table column. Columns can be string, number, date/time, listbox, radiobox and checkbox.
Returns the number of indexes. |
| bOk = SalLog( sLogFile, sLogEntry ) | Appends the string sLogEntry to the end of sLogFile.If the log file does not exist, it will be created.
Returns boolean. |
| bOk = SalLogLine( sLogFile, sLogEntry ) | Same as SalLog() with the application line number.
Returns boolean. |
| bOk = SalLogResources( sLogFile ) | Appends the window resources to the end of p_sLogFile. Only for SqlWindows/16!!!
Returns boolean. |
| hOutline = SalOutlineCurrent( ) | Get the current outline handle. |
| bOk = SalOutlineGetFileName( hOutline, sFile, bPath ) | Get the file name or the file name with path from an outline item.
<hOutline> outline item handle <sFile>, receive var, the file name <bPath>, TRUE for full file name with path, FALSE only file name |
| hItem = SalOutlineGetIncludingItem( hOutline, hItem ) | Get the include file as <hItem> from a particular outline item. |
| bOk = SalOutlineInfo( sFile, bIsOutline, bIsBinary, bIsRuntimeOnly, bIsEmbedded, bIsVersionMatch, nVersion ) | Get specific information from the sourcefile.
<sFile> is the filename <bIsOutline> receive var, TRUE, than the specified file is an outline file, and the rest of the variables are meaningful. Otherwise, all bets are off. <bIsBinary> receive var, TRUE than the file is a binary outline file, FALSE it's a text outline file (.APT file) <bIsRuntimeOnly> receive var, TRUE, the file contains a runtime only outline (compiled and stripped of design time only settings) <bIsEmbedded> receive var, TRUE, the runtime outline is embedded in a .EXE file <bIsVersionMatch> receive var, TRUE, the outline version of the file matches the outline version of the current runtime system. <nVersion> receive var, the outline version number (4026=saved as text 1.1*, 4027=saved as text 1.5*, 506=saved as binary 1.1*, 507=saved as binary 1.5*) |
| bOk = SalOutlineMergeIncludes( hOutline ) | Merge all libraries included in the outline. |
| nLines = SalOutlineItemLineCount( hOutline, hItem ) | The number of lines of the string value in outline (eg on descriptions). |
| nLevel = SalOutlineItemLevel( hOutline, hItem ) | The indentationlevel of the item (-1 is Top, 0 = application,1 ...) |
| bOk = SalQueryArrayBounds( aArray, nMin, nMax ) | Get the dimension of an array. <nMin> and <nMax> are receive parameters.
Returns boolean. |
| nNum = SalStrLeftB( sSource, nValue, sTarget ) | Copies <nValues> from left begin <sSource> to <sTarget>. <sTarget| is a receive parameter.
Returns the number of chars in <sTarget>. |
| nNum = SalStrRightB( sSource, nValue, sTarget ) | Copies <nValues> from right begin <sSource> to <sTarget>. <sTarget| is a receive parameter.
Returns the number of chars in <sTarget>. |
| nNum = SalStrMidB( sSource, nStart, nValue, sTarget ) | Copies <nValues> from offset <nStart> of <sSource> to <sTarget>. <sTarget| is a receive parameter.
Returns the number of chars in <sTarget>. |
| nNum = SalStrFull( sSource, sTarget ) | Copies the full <sSource> to <sTarget>. <sTarget| is a receive parameter.
Returns the number of chars in <sTarget>. |
| bOk = SqlContextClear( hSql ) | Clears the current execution context. For more information look also at SqlVarSetup().
Returns boolean. |
| nNum = HSNumStringsInUse( ) | Get the total number of used string handles in the application.
Returns number. |
| nNum = HSGetRef( sString ) | ???
Returns number. |
