TppSystemVariable and CalcOrder

rbuser

Hi,

RbPro 11.06, Delphi 2006, Vista SP2


The calculation order of TppVariables is not correct if there are also
TppSystemVariables on the same band. The TppSystemVariables are also counted
in the CalcOrder. So if you first place a TppSystemVariable on a band and
then add a TppVariable it wil have CalcOrder = 1.
And then the calculation order dialog is not working correct anymore because
its confused about the number of TppVariables and the CalcOrder of those
variables.

I think the cause is that TppSystemVariables are also added to
TppBand.Variables. Is that necessary? TppSystemVariables are not calculated
as TppVariables and the CalOrder dialog filters them out.

I tried changing the test in TppBand.AddObject

from
if (lComponent is TppCustomVariable) then
AddVariable(lComponent);

to
if (lComponent is TppVariable) then
AddVariable(lComponent);

and everything seems OK. CalcOrder is correct and TppSystemVariables still
give the same result.

Is this modification correct or am i missing something?

Hi Max,

Looking at the changes you made, you are correct that the TppSystemVariable
probably should not be added to the calc order. I will change this in our
source and it will be included in the next release.
