Stereotype compiled module

public int DDT_ask(in table, in param, in msg, in flag)

A special-purpose function. It wraps around a ddt_val function by parsing the retrieved value. If the value begins with the particular substring (default: ?), then a dialog is displayed where the retrieved value may be modified before being sent to further processing.

Parameters:

table - (in) table name (full path)

param - (in) column name

msg - (in) message to be displayed in case the substring is found

flag - (in) (optional) substring that triggers the dialog [default: ?]

Returns: value (either modified or unmodified) which is to be further processed

name - (out) name of the chosen file

Returns: E_OK: table chosen ( output variables filled ) E_BAD_PATH: oeration failed

Returns: E_OK: operation succeeded !E_OK: operation failed

public int DDT_open_table(in table, in mode)
