+ Added Set( _SET_DEFEXTENSIONS, <logical: .T./.F.> )
Default value is .T. (CA-Cl*pper compatible). If set to .F.,
Harbour runtime/RDD code will never attempt to add a
default extension to the filename arguments. Commands/functions
where this setting makes a difference are:
- SET ALTERNATE TO / Set( _SET_ALTFILE_, ... )
- SET PRINTER TO / Set( _SET_PRINTFILE_, ... )
- Set( _SET_EXTRAFILE, ... )
- SAVE TO / __mvSave()
- RESTORE FROM / __mvRestore()
- LABEL FORM
- REPORT FORM
- COPY TO ... DELIMITED
- COPY TO ... SDF
- LIST / __dbList()
- USE / dbUseArea()
- dbCreate()
- SET INDEX TO / ordListAdd() (not yet implemented)
- __HRBLOAD(), __HRBRUN()
; Notes:
- From now on, it possible to create/load files using the
above functions/commands which have no extension. This
might be desirable in a few platform and/or situations.
For example on Win32, it's possible to directly print
to a shared Windows printer queue, using these commands:
lOldValue := Set( _SET_DEFEXTENSIONS, .F. )
SET PRINTER TO \\myserver\myprinter
Set( _SET_DEFEXTENSIONS, lOldValue )
Or, it is possible to open a dbf file which has no extension:
dbUseArea(.T., NIL, "dbf_filename_with_no_extension", "w_DATA", .F., .F.)
- Compiler is (of course) not affected by this setting.
- Preprocessor (PP) lib flavour is not affected by this setting.
- Support is not full in the RDD code yet.
