HM and UM APIs

HM and UM APIs

Release Date: 5/26/2022
Version: Elliott 8.6 and Up

HM API

This API hides the main legacy Window in a Control Center menu task.  It is used in NWSMTASK in situations where the Control Center launches a task that collects report parameters without the user first selecting anything from a menu.  An example of this is A/R, Processing, Print Statements.  This API is sent from NWSMTASK when it detects a report being requested that is listed in the Menu-Override-Hide-Legacy-Screen section of EL860S.Cfg.

UM API

This API unhides a previously hidden main legacy window from using the HM API.  There are no uses of this API yet.

Note: These APIs are used only in the System Layer -- they may not be used by application programs.
