Hi All,

I've just upgraded my installation of X#, but I'm now getting a new error. I'm referencing X# from a C# program, using it to import data from an old VO program.

The offending code is

Code: Select all

XSharp.Core.Functions.SetAnsi(false);
XSharp.Core.Functions.SetExclusive(false);
XSharp.Core.Functions.SetDateFormat("MM/DD/YY");
XSharp.Core.Functions.SetEpoch(1990);
XSharp.Core.Functions.SetDeleted(true);

int codepage = XSharp.RuntimeState.DosCodePage;
AdjustBinaryData.Initialize(Encoding.GetEncoding(codepage));

DbServer setupreader = new DbServer(Path.Combine(selectedpath, "Setup.dbf"), true, true, "DBFCDX");
...
XSharp.__Array buildstations = setupreader.FIELDGET("FIELD45");   << ERROR ON THIS LINE

FIELD45 is a memo field containing a VO array. This used to work fine, but I now get "Conversion Error from USUAL (OBJECT) to ARRAY".
I imagine something changed in memo field handling?

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks

Nick

Hi...

can you assign the output of FieldGet to an variable of type usual and then check at runtime, if the result is really an array. I assume, that FieldGet returns a usual with a content, that is not compatible with an Array.

Hi Nick,

Have you checked if the problem exists only when using it from c#, or is it the same if you use it directly from an X# app, too?
In either case, can you prepare and post a (full) sample reproducing the problem?

Thanks for the replies... I was hoping someone would say "oh, that's because of x or y in V2.10"... to be honest I think the best is if I just roll back to 2.8. I'm so busy at the moment I can't get into investigating this in any depth.

Just an FYI.
I can confirm that simply rolling back to 2.8.1.12 fixes the issue.
The only files I'm using are XSharp.Core.dll, XSharp.Rdd.dll, XSharp.RT.dll, VORDDClasses.dll and VOSystemClasses.dll.

Nick

PS.. edited... and XSharp.MacroCompiler.dll.
