Releasing a reference to a 3rd party DLL

Releasing a reference to a 3rd party DLL

Releasing a reference to a 3rd party DLL

(OP)
Would anyone know how to Release a reference to a 3rd party DLL in Clarion?  I've tried PROP:Release (maybe I have the wrong syntax)?  Looking for something comparable to Set Obj = Nothing in VB.  Thanks!

RE: Releasing a reference to a 3rd party DLL

Did not understand your question fully but if you have referenced it with &= then a &= NULL would work. If you have NEWed it than a DISPOSE(...) will work. Anyway, the syntax for PROP:Release is ?object{Prop:release} = True.

Will ?object{Prop:release} = True work for an OCX?
Thanks very much!

RE: Releasing a reference to a 3rd party DLL

Yes, it is supposed to work. Why do you want to release the resource? Does is GPF b'cos you do no release it? OCX/OLE controls can be preset with the corresponding object by using the CREATE attribute OR dynamically set up by using the ?objectcontrol{prop:create} = 'objectnameORCLSID'. I have never used PROP:Release for any of the OCX/OLE control I have used so far and I have no GPFs. In certain cases I have used ?objectcontrol{prop:create} = '' before re-creating the object.
