SetFlag( ) method

Returns a flag enum instance with the indicated flag(s) set.

Return type: Flag enum type

Access: PUBLIC

Applies to: Progress.Reflect.Flags enumeration, Progress.Reflect.ParameterMode enumeration, any user-defined flag enum type

Syntax

SetFlag ( INPUT flag AS flag-enum-type )
flag
A reference to a flag enum instance. The enum type (flag-enum-type) of this instance must match the type of the instance the method is invoked on.

The following example results in vReflectFlags, an instance of Progress.Reflect.Flags, with the Public and Protected flags set:

DEFINE VARIABLE vReflectFlags AS Flags.
vReflectFlags = Flags:Public.

/* This sets the Protected flag without affecting the status of
   any of the other flags in vAccess. */
vReflectFlags = vReflectFlags:SetFlag(Flags:Protected).

You can use a bitwise OR operation to achieve the same result. For example, replacing the last line with vReflectFlags = vReflectFlags OR Flags:Protected also sets the Protected flag.
