PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 18 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: August 17, 2020
In 4D v18 the location of the logs related to maintenance (compact, repair, verify) have been changed.
As such the following call will not properly return the desired location:
Get 4D folder(Logs folder) |
Instead the are two ways to get the location of the maintenance logs.
To get the location use selector 11 with the command which will return the logs location
Get 4D folder(11) |
Alternatively, to get the direct path to one of the maintenance files, the new File command can be used passing the constant for the specific file.
- Compacting log file (6)
- Repair log file (7)
- Verification log file (5)
For example to get the latest verification log call:
File(Verification log file) |
