Option Property - APG (Magic xpa 4.x)

The Option property of APG sets the program's function. The available options are:

Browse

When you are developing an application, it’s often useful to be able to quickly take a look at the data you are working with. This option is the default and runs (Execute mode) or generates (Generate mode) programs designed for online data entry and maintenance. From the resulting browser you can use the runtime Locate and Range utilities to easily find specific records. You can also add, delete, and edit records, and other options, which you can see on the pulldown menu.

This is the only option available for XML data sources. If the Data source name column in the Data repository is prefixed with ‘http://’ or ‘https://’, the program will be generated as Access=R, Share=R.

Note: Before your browse program starts, the Main program's Task Prefix will execute. If you have code in the Task Prefix that will interfere while you are trying to run browser programs, such as a user timecard, you can disable it by using the RunMode() function.
