Re: Straw Poll - Does Get 4D file(Last backup file) fail for anyone?

Dave,

Just as a sanity check, is the value of $1 in the On Backup Shutdown method 
zero?  That is the indication of a successful backup.  If, for some reason, 4D 
didn’t consider the backup successful, that could account for an incorrect file 
name.

Straw Poll - Does Get 4D file(Last backup file) fail for anyone?

2020-08-25 Thread Dave Nasralla via 4D_Tech
This is mostly just curiosity. Most people probably never use this command
A bug report has been filed.

If you are bored - test the command by simply doing a File -> Backup
And then run the command:
Alert(Get 4D file(Last backup file))

If it doesn't work you simply get a path that is completely wrong. For
me, it returns a path that is years old. I am running v17.4 on systems
that have been through many versions of 4D.

Take care!
