Hi all.
I have a nagging and somewhat transient problem.
I have a library, which contains a .First.lib. In it, three files are
sourced:
source("my_functions.ssc", local = F, echo = F, n = -1, immediate = NULL)
source("my_callbacks.ssc", local = F, echo = F, n = -1, immediate = NULL)
source("add.my.menus.ssc", local = F, echo = F, n = -1, immediate = NULL)
The process works FOR THE MOST part: 99% of the functions in my_functions
are defined successfully and all the menus and 99% of the dialogs produced
by add.my.menus are OK.
Occasionally, something like this will happen upon loading the libraries:
* a dialog will miss something like a text field; or
* an occasional function will not be defined, so when you try to
invoke it from a dialog, SPLUS will complain.
It is all curable, if you run my_functions, my_callbacks and add.my.menus
MANUALLY, in which case no problem ever occurs.
I know there is a timing issue with sourcing files in that no assignments
are committed until "source" exits normally (though not sure what it would
explain). Is there any wisdom out there on how to get around this?
I use SPLUS 6.1Release 2 on Win 2000.
