Those of you going to the planetPTC is there a calendar of sessions. I only
see a listing, but not in calendar form. Is there one and I am missing it?
Or should I create it.

    I have an ACL file with a line that reads, "response(doc_type_dir());" which, in Arbortext 5.2 produces a response dialog with the path to my doctype directory.

    In Arbortext 6.0 the same ACL file produces a blank response dialog (except for the OK button).

    When I type "response(doc_type_dir())" on the command line in Arbortext 6, I get a response dialog with the correct contents, but the same line in ACL produces nothing.

    In the past there have been some commands, etc. that require different syntax in ACL from what they require on the command line. It seems as though doc_type_dir() has acquired this behavior in Arbortext 6.0.
    Anybody got a clue?

    ED,

    I've just tried this in 6.0, but don't get a problem.
    The response command was the only thing in my acl file; might there be something else in your acl which is causing this line to be skipped?

    Ed,


    It could also be a timing thing whereby, in 6.0, the information for the doc_type_dir() command doesn't have the doctype data available yet. The order in which ACL files are loaded is critical at document loading. When things settle out, you have all the data available, such as when you use the command line.


    Or, as Adrian mentions, there may be something prior to the command that is not quite correct that hoses up the response.

    I tried a doctype.acl file with only the response(doc_type_dir()); command and it still doesn't work. Digging deeper now.
