VaToolBxSetAdeliaPrintSettings

This function is used to set the following parameters for Adelia-type printing:

the spool file back up directory,
the immediate printing of a spool file or its generation only,
the possible automatic deletion of the spool files after they were printed.

Context

Windows client,
Adelia Cloud client.

Parameters

BOOL	Permanent	Specifies whether or not the new parameters are taken into account for the current session only (FALSE) or permanently (TRUE) (the configuration file "wicfgva.ini" will be modified).
ALPHA	SpoolDir	Path to the spool file back up directory. If the path does not exist, it is created when the function is called.
BOOL	ImmediatePrint	TRUE immediate printing is requested, FALSE only the spool file is generated.
BOOL	DeleteSpool	TRUE the spool file is deleted after it was printed, FALSE the spool file remains on the disk in the SpoolDir directory.
BOOL	ReturnCode	Return code for the operation: TRUE if the operation was successful. FALSE if the operation failed.

Note: In order for the new value of the path to the spool file back up directory to be taken into account efficiently, the function must be called before the OPEN instruction.

Example

The parameters are set for the session only; the spool files are generated in the "c:\spool" directory; the spool file is printed immediately, then it is deleted.
