LANSA V15 Report field issue

Post by LANSAfolks »

Converting a large application to LANSA V15 and discovered this issue. Using the LANSA Shipped #DATE field in a Report Function, I see that the total occupied width in V15 is now 25 bytes, with spaces filled between the label and value e.g. "Date.............99/99/99". While in LANSA V14, the same gets rendered as "Date..99/99/99". Have other folks experienced this issue? I see this as a bug, as I have 200+ report functions that will need re-editing to get this change re-aligned. Note that #DATE is a LANSA shipped field.

Already logged this with LANSA Support, will let you know what comes of it. This issue comes up when opening the Report Function in the VL IDE, that's using the #DATE field in the DEF_HEAD definition. If you want to test, create a simple function in VL V14SP2, that uses the #DATE field in a DEF_HEAD statement. Then import that into V15 (Standalone VCS install). The rendering will change in V15.
