ErrorReturn. Returns one of the following values:
Success! – The function succeeded
SharedObjectExistsError! – The instance name has already been used
SharedObjectCreateInstanceError! – The object could not be created
SharedObjectCreatePBSessionError! – The shared object session could not be created
When you call the SharedObjectRegister function, PowerBuilder opens a separate runtime session for the shared object and creates the shared object. The name you specify for the object instance provides a way for you to access the object instance with the SharedObjectGet function.
You can use a shared object on a PowerBuilder client to simulate an asynchronous call to EAServer. For more information, see the description of the SharedObjectGet function.
In this example, the user object uo_customers is registered so that it can be shared. The name assigned to the shared object instance is share1. After registering the object, the application uses the SharedObjectGet function to store an instance of the object in an object variable:
SharedObjectRegister("uo_customers", "share1")
SharedObjectGet("share1",shared_object)
