OutputString method
Syntax
Invoke OutputString, lpszString, bClear
Function
Prints a null terminated text string in the output window of the Easy Code instance that launched the application calling the method.
Parameters
lpszString
Pointer to the effective address of the string to be printed.
bClear
Specifies whether the output window has to be cleared before printing the new string. It can be one of the following values:
FALSE The output window will not be cleared.
TRUE The output window will be cleared before printing the text new string.
Return value
None.
If
lpszString is NULL,
or it is an empty string, the method does nothing. On the
other hand, this method checks if the string pointed by
lpszString ends with the end of line characters,
<CR> (Carriage Return)
and
<LF> (Line Feed).
If not,
the method sends both characters to the output window
immediately after of printing the string pointed by
lpszString. The length of lpszString
must not exceed 255 characters, otherwise
it will be truncated.
IMPORTANT: This method only
works if the calling application is launched with the "Project
=> Run"
menu option of an instance of Easy Code (the text strings will be sent
to its output window), otherwise it has no effect.
