Passes context to the message handler.

Syntax

PROCEDURE setApplicationContext.
DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER handler AS HANDLE.

Applies to

Message Consumer objects

Notes

• The handler parameter is typically a handle to a persistent procedure implemented by the application.
• When the message handler is called, it gets that handler and uses it, for example, to deposit error information in the application's context by calling a specific handler's internal procedure.
