Hello Dave -
Yes you can have both versions of the Ascend attributes in the same dictionary file and both versions will be decoded properly. However, because both versions use the same names, the encoding will be done by the version that is defined "last". The workaround that I mention below is to use the new dictionary.ascend file (which includes just the old style Ascend attributes), and specify both files:
DictionaryFile %D/dictionary, %D/dictionary.ascend
which will cause the old style attributes to be defined a second time, after the vendor-specifics.
Please let me know how you go with the new files.
regards
Hugh

Hugh,
I have a question about the dictionary file. Currently my dictionary has
the 242 Ascend-Data-Filter's defined as the old style Ascend attributes.
A while back we ran into a problem's with both auth and the attributes
not working when we had both Vendor Specific Ascend-Data-Filter's and
the Old-Ascend defined in the same dictionary. Why would this cause a
problem? Can we have them both defined in the same dictionary?
Thanks,

Subject: (RADIATOR) new dictionary file available for testing
Hello Everyone -
I have recently done some work on the Radiator dictionary file and I am
looking for some volunteers to test it.
The dictionary file now includes *all* dictionaries (in other words,
henceforth there will only be one), and I would like some feedback from
live testing telling me if there are any problems.
The new dictionary file is available now on the web site in the patches
area.
Note that the file now contains both the Ascend old-style attributes
and the Ascend vendor-specifics. What this means is that both types of
Ascend attributes will be decoded correctly, but only the
vendor-specifics will be encoded. If anyone has a problem with this
please let me know (there is a work-around if required).
Feedback to me please.
regards
Hugh
