Unexpected C++ Compiler Error using SDK interface

Postby misterbear » 30 Sep 2011

I am getting an unexpected compiler error when attempting to return an integer value using the member function AsInteger. According to the
EasyLanguage Extension SDK
pdf of 02/08/2006 (see EasyLanguage Property Reference table C). AsInteger should be acceptable when returning a value through an EasyLanguageVariable. Below is an example C++ code snippet. Please Advise

Code: Select all

IEasyLanguageObject *pEL = passed_in_from_powerlanguage_call
IEasyLanguageVariable *p = pEL->Variables[ "some_defined_var_name" ] ;
p->AsTrueFalse[0] = true ; <---- works fine!
p->AsDouble[0] = 1.2345 ; <---- works fine!
p->AsInteger[0] = 12345 ; <---- ERROR, compiler says AsInteger is not a member!
Q: is there a more relevant (current) SDK document than the EasyLanguage 02/08/2006 document for interfacing to PowerLanguage?
