Runs the super procedure version of the current user-defined function.

This language element must appear within a user-defined function, but can appear anywhere within the user-defined function. If this language element does not appear within a user-defined function, the compiler reports an error.

Syntax

SUPER [ ( parameter [ , parameter ] ...  ) ]
parameter

A parameter of the super version of the current user-defined function. These parameters must have the same signature (number of parameters, and type and mode of each) as the parameters of the current user-defined function. You can, however, adjust a parameter's value.

For the parameter syntax, see the Parameter definition syntax reference entry.

If a user-defined function cannot be located in any super procedure, the AVM generates the following error message:

SUPER version of user-defined function name invoked but could not be found

Errors are stored in the ERROR-STATUS handle when NO-ERROR is specified.

Example

For an example of the SUPER function, see the RUN SUPER statement reference entry.

Notes

  • To run the super version of an internal procedure, use the RUN SUPER statement.
  • For the rules that ABL uses to find the super version of the current user-defined function, see the ADD-SUPER-PROCEDURE( ) method reference entry.
