Re: [foxboro] set_confirm for boolean

Ronny,

I had a similar problem on an application using
'setval' command , that used to work on an AP20.
On porting to a 50 Series I could not set any Boolean
parameters.
I gave up trying to troubleshoot this as I was pushed for time, and used the
'omset' command . Not very elegant but at least it works  Part program
follows:

sprintf(exstr,"/opt/fox/bin/tools/omset -b FALSE %s", fbmgw_fail[0]); 
system(exstr);          

Where  fbmgw_fail[0] contains the full path name of the variable.
