Hi Everybody:
I have heard about then GeneratorLinks property, but the
documentation isn't quite clear, on how it works. Could someone
explain it using 5,000,000 words or less. :-))
I understand that without using it, IBO could lose it's positioning
on the record. Fair enough, however does this mean you eliminate the
trigger and use generator links instead, or does GeneratorLinks work
along side the trigger, to get the positioning info.
In my case, I don't want to lose the position of the record, but I
like the idea of using the trigger, as it allows non-IBO environments
(I am thinking Perl here) to update the database as well.
BTW anyone know of a good IB-Perl interface, needs to be usable under
Windows and also Unix (any Unix FB and Apache can run on).
Thanks in advance,.
Paul
