BinaryInfo (Function)
In french: BinaireInfo
Warning
BinaryInfo is kept for backward compatibility (This function will still be supported in the forthcoming version).
Since version 8, the operating mode of memo items was improved. To benefit from these new features, use HInfoMemo.
Below is the documentation of BinaryInfo, available in WINDEV 5.5
 
Purpose
Retrieving information about a binary memo 4.1 (type, name, date, time and size of source file)
Syntax
<Result>=BinaryInfo(<Item>)
  • <Result> is a character string containing the information about the binary memo, separated by TAB

    Type+TAB+NAME+TAB+Size+TAB+Date+TAB+Time+TAB+Info
    • Type: Type of the memo, can take for value: "IMG", "WAV", "OLE", "BIN" or "BAD" (indicates that the binary memo is not stored properly)
    • Name: Name of the source file as it was specified in BinaryLoad
    • Size: Size of source file in bytes
    • Date: Date of source file in "YYYYMMDD" format
    • Time: Time of source file in "HHMMSS" format
    • Info: User information as it was specified in BinaryLoad
  • <Item> is a character string containing the name of the binary memo item
Details
BinaryInfo returns a character string in <Result> containing information about the source file of the binary memo and information about the binary memo.
If the memo is not filled, <Result> is an empty string.
Notes
  • Binary memos (sound, image, OLE and others) are binary memos of WINDEV 4.1 (binary memos of WINDEV 4.0 cannot be used by BinaryInfo).
  • The source file is the file from which the binary memo was created by BinaryLoad.
  • BinaryInfo returns information about an Image control (type, name, date, time and size of the source file)
