getLatestNetID

Syntax

    getLastestNetID

Description

This function returns an identifier for the last network operation that started.

The identifier returned by `getLatestNetID` can be used as a parameter in the `netDone, netError,` and `netAbort` functions to identify the last network operation.

Note: This function is included for backward compatibility. It is recommended that you use the network ID returned from a net lingo function rather than getLatestNetID. However, if you use getLatestNetID, use it immediately after issuing the netLingo command.

Example

This script assigns the network ID of a `getNetText` operation to the field cast member Result so results of that operation can be accessed later.

    on startOperation
    	global gNetID
    	getNetText("url")
    	set gNetID = getLatestNetID()
    end
    on checkOperation
    	global gNetID
    	if netDone(gNetID) then
    		put netTextResult into member "Result"
    	end if
    end
