I'm up to my eyes in debugging the MOVEM instructions for the next (hopefully) QL Toady article and I've found a couple of problems in QMON2. I've got version 2.08 (from the code - the boot file says 2.07a) of both QMON and JMON. I use JMON mostly but similar problems lie in QMON :
BUG 1. In JMON, I cannot write to channel 3, in QMON I can. So the command DR3 in JMON gives ERR>> while in QMON it works fine. BUG 2. In both, I cannot open a channel using the 'O' command as in "O4 ram1_test" or "O4 'ram1_test'", howver, if the channel number is 3 or less, I can. The manual says that QMON uses 4 channels 0 - 3, so I want to avoid using any of the 'standard' ones and use my own. Doesn't look like I can. BUG 3. In QMON, I can open #3, write to it and close it as follows : O3 ram1_test dr3 O3 and all is fine - I can see the contents of ram1_test at that point in time. In JMON, I cannot ever get the file to close - it remains open and in use even when closed in JMON and/or JMON has been exited by closing or killing the monitored job. Using the channels thing, I see that the file as owned by SuperBasic and can force close it. If I do this, I can then see the contents. Seems a bit drastic to me ! So far, that is all I have found :o) Does anyone know the current status of QMON2 - is it 'freely' available anywhere, updated, what is the highest/latest/final version etc - I'd like to upgrade if possible as maybe the above problems are already fixed. (I got QMON2 through Digital Precision's big bundle of software deal some time back.) Regards, Norman. PS. I'm even going to write an article of using QMON2 :o) ------------------------------------- Norman Dunbar Database/Unix administrator Lynx Financial Systems Ltd. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0113 289 6265 Fax: 0113 289 3146 URL: http://www.Lynx-FS.com ------------------------------------- This email is intended only for the use of the addressees named above and may be confidential or legally privileged.
