fgl_dialog_getbuffer()

Returns the text of the input buffer of the current field.

Syntax

fgl_dialog_getbuffer()
  RETURNS STRING

Usage

The fgl_dialog_getbuffer() function returns the content of the input buffer of the current field. It must be used in INPUT, INPUT ARRAY and CONSTRUCT blocks.

The function is especially useful in a CONSTRUCT instruction, because there is no variable associated to fields in this case.

Consider using the ui.Dialog.getFieldBuffer() method instead.
