Handling Soups in Your Application

Calling RegUnionSoup

An application should call RegUnionSoup before making any call to AddToDefaultStoreXmit. There's no need to call RegUnionSoup in your InstallScript, and in fact it would waste memory to keep your union soup registered longer than necessary. You'll normally register in your base view's viewSetupFormScript.


Note:One tricky variation to account for is the situation in which an entry is beamed to your application before the application has ever been run. You would take care of this in your base view's PutAwayScript.
