I have written an access module, and at the creation of my instances if no new values is given into the in_p_entity, the msl default values are taken. This runs perfectly on the fcl-pm, but my problem appear on the inconic map pm : when into the creation window I select "use default values" or validate what is displayed into the fields ( msl default values appearing), I recived the "bad ilv mode" error, and with the debugger I have seen that the ILV list given back by the iconic is empty ! This does not happen when I enter the values with "Expand field" or a direct entry by keypad. What could be the error ?? Thank you for help, Pascale.

Actually the FCL is broken here. The SRM states that the "implementation specific" default value is passed down when the user requests the default. But, this wasn't clear in the first version of the SRM and so the FCL passed down the value from the dictionary not the flag. In an ILV dump the flag shows up as a null value, but on the ILV get you will get back a cvr telling you it is the default (MCC_S_ILVIMPLDEFAULT). Now for the V1.1 release the FCL corrected this problem in some, but not all places; while the iconic map always passes the flag. It is on the list for 1.2 FCL work to attempt to clean up the default passing so that only the flag goes across and not the value. |
