Load and compile error

Question

omer · Oct 28

Hello,

I am using the following:

s status = $SYSTEM.OBJ.Load("myClassName," "c")

and while trying to compile it i get an error that a property or method does not exist, more specifically:

Method or Property 'basicToolbar' does not exist in this class.

it's important to say - basicToolbar DOES EXIST! If i manually compile this class through the studio, it will work and is runnable.
only when using the Load command i get this error.

what could possibly be wrong?
i also tried combination of different flags but fail to understand how is this possible.

maybe there are dependencies for that class? (e.g. class depends on another class(es) that need to be compiled before). try to add "r" (recursive) flag, so your flags will look like: "ckr"

I tried it, did not work, It seems that the code used to manually take and compile the parent class, And then compile the class we are on. This does not work as the
Right now even if I manually take the parent class and compile it still won't work.
scenario 1:
when manually taking the parent class and trying to compile it, it would then compile its child and fail there (presumably because the child compiled in parallel to the parent causing the Method or Property undefined)
scenario 2:
when trying to compile the class with the "ckr" flag, it would tell us the class was compiled successfully but in reality the class won't be compiled as we go inside it in studio we see it required compilation still.

Does your class have a relationship property to another class?
In that case you might want to consider to use: "CompileAfter" or "DependsOn" keywords (those might help the compiler to have a correct order when compiling).
