Event parameters lost on custom trigger

[Michael Pokraka]

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, that's it! Grrrr.... one day I'll get used to the SAP_WAPI
way....
 
OK, the dump was in the swc_set_element ... macro. Silly me, I see
container, I think container macros - not that it would be an obvious
thought.
 
At least that's how SWE_EVENT_CREATE used to work, and looking at the doc=
s
for SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT it's all described.
 
Thanks for that, it works now.
Cheers
Mike
