Object PmaString (Text string)
Description:
The object represents one text value of the
String type. Thus defined value is the variable of the PROMOTIC system that can be used anywhere in the script and it can be shared by other applications as well for example using
DDE.
This object is obsolete (but functional) and it is better to use the
PmaData object.
No other
Pma objects can be created in this object.
This object can be created in objects:
PmaRoot,
PmaFolder,
PmaPrototype. Multiple objects of this type can be created in such objects.
This object
adds one variable for calculation of the application size, which influences the
basic runtime licence type/size (see:
Licences for PROMOTIC runtime environment).
This object inherits properties, methods and events of the
PmaObject object.

GetOwnedByName() | Returns reference to the subobject defined by its name |
GetOwnedByType() | Returns an array of references to the subobjects |
GetOwnedNum() | Returns number of subobjects in the object |
GetPar() | Reading the value of the Pma object parameter (or its parents) |

GetPermission() | Returns permission of corresponding operation from object |
Methods | Access to designer methods of this object |
Name | Object name (without the path) |
Parent | Returns reference to the parent Pma object |
Pm() | Returns reference to the Pma object or to its implementation subobject |
RemoveEvent() | Unregisters the function in the specified event |
Root | Returns reference to the root application object PmaRoot |
Events of this object:
onValueWrite | Is triggered after writing the value into this object |
Events inherited from the PmaObject object:
onStart | Is triggered for each object in runtime only once at the beginning |
onStop | Is triggered for each Pma object in runtime only once at the stop of the application |
Configuration tabs:
Object | General information about the object |
Events | Definition of object events algorithms |
String | Basic parameters settings |
