Multi-launchable apps and GeodeGetOptrNS
Question: I get this error in my program: ILLEGAL_HANDLE and it seems to be associated with this line: @send MyPrimary::MSG_META_DO_STUFF( @MyObject ); Answer: The problem is that with multiple source-file programs that are compiled is multi-launchable applications, you can't refer to objects in another source file just by their name. You have to use the function GeodeGetOptrNS to get a valid optr. Here is how to fix that line: optr primary; primary = GeodeGetOptrNS( @MyPrimary ); @send primary::MSG_META_DO_STUFF( GeodeGetOptrNS( @MyObject ) ); You won't have to do this if you are compiling the program as a single-launchable app. Also, you can't use GeodeGetOptrNS if the app is single-launchable.
