PRB: AutoOpenTables/AutoCloseTables Ignored in Program

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Create a new program file, and type the following code:

      ******* Begin Program **********
   
      public oData1
      oData1=CREATEOBJECT("MyData")  && Instaniate the Data Environment
   
      DEFINE CLASS MyData AS dataenvironment   && DataEnvironment Class
      Name = "Dataenvironment"
      AutoOpenTables=.T.
      AutoCloseTables=.T.
      ADD OBJECT "Cursor1" AS MyCursor     && ADD OBJECT for each
      ENDDEFINE                            && cursor in Dataenvironment
   
      DEFINE CLASS MyCursor AS cursor      && Cursor Class
      Alias = "author"
      Database = "C:\vfp\samples\data\testdata.dbc"
      CursorSource = "customer"
      Name = "Cursor1"
      ENDDEFINE
   
      ******* End Program *******
   						

2. Run the program.
3. Check the View window. You will see that no tables are opened. The Data Environment's AutoOpenTables is ignored.
4. In the Command window type:

   oData1.OpenTables

   NOTE: If the Testdata.dbc is not in your Path, you need to locate it.
5. Note that the table is opened.
6. Inside the Command window, type:

   oData1.CloseTables

7. The OpenTables/CloseTables must be called directly because AutoOpenTables and AutoCloseTables are ignored.
