Hi:
There is however a way to make a call from another language (e.g.
Delphi) to initialize all the global variables required by the "standard
UI macros".
There is a macro in the gis_ui called "init_client", and it takes two
(optional, but recommended) arguments log_file and search_path. It runs
all the "Init ..." macros as appropriate, and diverts all ShowMessage()
dialog boxes to the log file, avoiding blocking the UI. If search_path =
null then search_path = "/ccdata".
RunMacro("init_client",log_file,search_path)
