The Load 4D View document command allows you to convert a 4D View document into a 4D object.
Neither a valid 4D View license, nor an instance of the legacy 4D View plug-in in your environment are required for this command.
Pass in the 4DViewDocument parameter a BLOB variable or field containing the 4D View document to convert. The command returns a 4D object that describes all information originally stored within the 4D View document, including:
Using this command, you can recover any data stored in your 4D View documents and handle them in an open format.
Note: If you need to convert documents from 4D View to 4D View Pro, it is recommended to use the dedicated VP Convert from 4D View command which performs a direct and transparent conversion.
You want to load and convert a 4D View document stored on disk:
C_BLOB($blob)
C_OBJECT($object)
DOCUMENT TO BLOB("document.4PV";$blob)
$object:=Load 4D View document($blob)
ALERT("Document title is "+$object.title)
For example, if you convert the following document:
You will get the following result (stringified object):
