Details

The _reenter method is invoked automatically when the _reenter method is enabled (see _enableReenterNotify) and the frame is re-entered. A frame is considered re-entered when it receives an event after a previous window was active. For example, if you are running a FRAME application and the application submits some code that causes the OUTPUT window or the GRAPH window to display, the frame is re-entered when you end from the OUTPUT window or the GRAPH window. Another example is when you have two FRAME applications running and the focus is in one of the applications: if you pop-up the window for the other application and begin to enter data or select widgets, the newly active application is re-entered.

A frame is not considered re-entered when returning from a CALL DISPLAY or any other SCL function that displays a window (for example, LIBLIST, DIRLIST, and ACCESS).

To enable or disable the _reenter method, use the _enableReenterNotify and _disableReenterNotify methods, respectively.
