   I am trying to compile the following class outside of the SCL project. My PROPATH appears to be setup correctly. All the other files compile fine (except the ones that inherit this class)
   
   Any ideas?
   
   
   
   COMPILE Consultingwerk\SmartComponents\Base\SmartDatasetAdapter.cls SAVE
   
   the error is 
   
   Unknown attribute FromErrorMessageAndError used in widget:attribute phrase. (3406)
   
   
   ** C:\ProgressWrk\OspreyVer117102\SmartComponentLibrary\Consultingwerk\SmartComponents\Base\SmartDatasetAdapter.cls Could not understand line 2850. (196)
   
   The listing shows line 2850 below.
   
   2850                     UNDO, THROW Exception:FromErrorMessageAndError (SUBS
      2850     TITUTE ("Error opening Query after update: &1"{&TRAN}, cFetchQuerySt
      2850   2 ring),

   It's a static method it's complaining about. 
   
   Do you have a database field or database table with the name Exception or where Exception could be an abbreviation? The compiler prefers them by default instead of a static class name (supported by a USING statement).
   
   Try to use the COMPILE statement OPTIONS require-full-names
   
   This disallows the use of abbreviated field and table names.

   Alternatively, compile the SmartComponentLibrary with just the SmartDB connected. And compile the rest of the application with your applicaiton DB's connected.
   
   Alternatively we'll have to change our code and add the package name to the reference, e.g.:
   
                   UNDO, THROW Consultingwerk.Exceptions.Exception:FromErrorMessageAndError (SUBSTITUTE ("Error opening Query after update: &1"{&TRAN}, cFetchQueryString),
                                                                   0,
                                                                   querypreperr) .

   Hey Mike,
   
   Just having the SmartDB connected works...
   
   I am not sure where we use Exception in our DB but I will check.

   :)
   
   This is really the least appreciated compiler feature ever ... It's a ticking time bomb, as it can happen on any class name. We have added some customer's database schema to our unit test suite to have a better hit ratio on critical field names when compiling our code. If you want, we can add your databases to that test suite as well.

   I appreciate the offer but it is not necessary. This project is an internal system we use for deploying our app and preventing stealing. I just changed the FieldName to RequestException...
   
   Thanks again.
