Method Detail

Shell shell)

Validate the given connection name is not already used in any profile. This is too expensive to do per keystroke, so you should call this after as a final test. Note, this is a warning situation, not an error, as we assume we have already tested for the containing profile, and thus is a test for a match on a connection in a non-containing profile. This results in msg rseg1241 being presented to the user, and if he chooses No to not continue, we return false here. You should stop processing on false. Else, we return true meaning everything is ok.
