Xojo VCS Format

Off-Topic

Just curious… I was looking inside the project file for a module stored in VCS format
and notice some things that made no sense whatsoever…

like

  • Why is there an INDEX property? makes sense for a control… but not a module (not to mention doesn’t show in IDE)
  • Why is a SUPER , or LEFT and TOP properties?
2

Well it doesn’t make sense for them to be horseshoes…

this is more a remnant of how the in memory representation is and when you ask the super to write out its properties you get a bunch that seem odd like this

That was kinda what I thought… but like I said… was curious :slight_smile:

you can just NOT write them and it wont matter (well it shouldnt)
really :slight_smile:
same as not writing the view behaviour for a module
there were a few of those oddities that I just never managed to correct
