Subject: VFP6: Procedure File Blues
From: desmond.ll...@gmail.com

-----------------------------------
Note that a procedure file was already set at the time, so I made sure
that I issued the additive command at the end of set procedure to.
Worked fine (several months). Last week I started to experience the
original program too large message again so I once again moved some
procedure and functions to the new procedure file.
Began to get errors that file could not be found when executing "valid
functions" after certain reads. Solution was to move those back to the
original program file.
---------------------------------
The combination of VFP6, 'Program too large', and multiple procedure files with
procedures moving back and forth makes me very nervous.
It's obvious that this is a large program, with large code files, and I'd have
a lot more confidence in VFP9 to handle the details correctly than in VFP6.
Also, moving procs back and forth between files gives you lots of opportunities
to screw up by having different versions of the same procedure in different
procedure files. Note that if the same proc name is in two files, the last one
named in a 'set procedure to' is the one that gets executed, unless you say 'do
ProcName in FileName'.
Note that if you replace the proc file (i.e., xxx.prg) and an xxx.fxp still
exists, it won't automatically get recompiled. Are you sure you rebuilt the
project each time you moved a proc?
Try running the pgm in VFP9 and see what happens.

One other tid bit is that if you have xxx.prg built into a project and
an external xxx.fxp it will run the xxx.prg built into the project. I
ran into this the other day.
