Re: Bootstrap and too many functions?

We have been using the bootstrap import to build.  A recent, benign change to one object shuts powergen down.  Roll back the changes to that one object, and the bootstrap completes normally.
The changes to that object consist of adding an instance variable declaration, initializing that instance variable from an ini setting, and a function that simply returns the value of that instance variable.
These changes regen properly in the PowerBuilder development environment.
Are there any limitations on the number of instance variables or the number of functions?  There are a lot on this object.

Re: Bootstrap and too many functions?

Where in the process does the failure occur, i.e. Phase 1, 2..., initializing, etc.?

Send an export of the modified object if you could.

Regards,

Phil

Re: Bootstrap and too many functions?

I attached the code.  Let me know if there is another way you want this sent.

Re: Bootstrap and too many functions?

Hi Vince,

(Sorry for the delay; I was on vacation.)


I was able to Bootstrap Import this object with no problem.

Which version of PowerGen are you using?  There have been a couple bug fixes recently, related to parsing object files during the Bootstrap Import process.

Regards,

Phil

Re: Bootstrap and too many functions?

I'll upload a PowerGen V6.0 pre-release (for PB7) tomorrow to our ftp site.  This is worth trying because of a couple bug fixes in the area where have reported the problem.

I'll send you a notice when it's available.

Regards,

Phil
