Where can I learn more about "AcctLogFileFormat" than what is printed in
the manual for 2.14?
Here's what we're doing. For reliability reasons, rather than send
Accounting data via SQL, we are going to allow Radiator to write to the
detail file, which should never fail. Then, periodically, a VB app running
on a Windows server will wake up, request all new accounting records from a
server running on the Radiator host, upload them into the database, and go
back to sleep.
So the short story is that I have to parse my detail file. Obviously, I can
make my job a lot easier if I have a lot of control over how the records
are laid out in the detail file. With AcctLogFileFormat, it appears that I
can choose fields and perhaps their order, but that's it. I'd like to also
be able to:
1) Reformat the Timestamp so that it's SQL Server readable
2) Reserve Newline characters to separate entire accounting records only;
preferably preserving the Tab character to delimit individual fields of the
record.
That would probably do the trick. I value any and all suggestions! Thanks!
