Interface IStdGlobalClass

Namespace

RDCore.SDK.Runtime.Abstract.StdLib

Assembly

RDCore.SDK.dll

MS-VBAL 6.1.3.3 Global Class
ℹ️ These runtime semantics implicate MSForms, which is out of scope for the language core and isn't specified directly as an intrinsic part of MS-VBAL.

public interface IStdGlobalClass

Remarks

Formalizes the public interface of the Global class.
👉 This object is a singleton that is referenced by the Global global/static symbol.

Methods

StdGlobalClass_Load(VBObjectValue)

MS-VBAL 6.1.3.3.1.1 Load Loads a form or control into memory.

RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult StdGlobalClass_Load(VBObjectValue value)

Parameters

value VBObjectValue

Returns

RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult

A RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult object encapsulating the result of the successful operation, or the error metadata otherwise.

Remarks

🎯 A UserForm designer would absolutely be in-scope for a client IDE, however:

• Using MSForms directly would tie RDCore to MS-VBA, which must be avoided to keep RDCore portable;
• The implication is that we will eventually need a managed library that can reinterpret MSForms and render it without the MSForms library or MSVBA runtime;
• 👉 It's probably best for everyone to move on from legacy MSForms.

StdGlobalClass_Unload(VBObjectValue)

MS-VBAL 6.1.3.3.1.2 Unload Unloads a form or control from memory.

RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult StdGlobalClass_Unload(VBObjectValue value)

Parameters

value VBObjectValue

Returns

RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult

A RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult object encapsulating the result of the successful operation, or the error metadata otherwise.
