Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Messaging and ESB

getDataSet function

Gets the handle to the newly created DataSetMessage.

Syntax

FUNCTION getDataSet (INPUT name, INPUT schemaLocation,     INPUT fieldtypeMapping) RETURNS HANDLE.

Applies to

Message objects

Notes

The handle parameter must be a declared handle. Any previous value of the handle parameter will be lost.
The schema parameters specify the schema information and are passed directly to the READ-XML method. Specifying an Unknown value (?) for any of the schema parameters will result in the use of the default value for that parameter.
The DataSet is created from reading the DataSetMessage and using the READ-XML method.
The name parameter is the name of the widget-pool to be used when creating the DataSet. (For more information on widget pools, see the CREATE-DATASET entry in OpenEdge Development: Progress 4GL Reference .) A value of “?” will result in the use of the default pool.
