RE: [U2] UV and Fedora Core 3
Hi George, So far my experience is that Universe works smoothly on whatever linux distro you throw it at :-) I have uv 10.1 running perfectly on a debian 3.1 sarge testing distro, and i have also tried on ubuntu suse, mandrake, turbolinux etc. etc. :-) I totally skipped redhat rhel, because they are not so free, i still need to try universe on CentOS which is a RedHat 3.0 RHEL distro without the redhat logo , and therefore its free :-) some of the distros have a more correctly unix way of doing things, so you need to fiddle with your config files to make UV start automagically on a boot, but it really is no problem at all.. I guess its possible to embed universe on a live cd distro, where the data can be placed on an USB ram stick, then you wont even need a harddisk, nice concept for a demo application :-) AFAIK the only thing you need to check before loading universe on a linux machine is the glibc library version. best regards from denmark Claus Derlien -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of George Gallen Sent: Friday, January 21, 2005 4:13 PM To: Ardent List Subject: [U2] UV and Fedora Core 3 FYI, UV 10 seems to work just fine on FC3.

Re: [U2] UniObjects and VB.Net

Re: [U2] UniObjects and VB.Net
That's definitely available with any of the .net languages and probably could be gerry rigged simply by setting a semaphore. It also might mean that the thing runs slow enough to be useless. Probably the better alternative would be to manipulate the dynamic array with whichever U2 you are using. Or it might work to make a flat file and use ADO and a stream but you might run into the same thread problems. Or make a number of smaller arrays so that the threads are less likely to collide. The problem with that is less likely may be too likely. Possibly the best answer is to ask the question on one of the MSDN news groups. They won't know what you mean about dynamic array so you may have to change the wording a bit. A dynamic array to a .NET developer, as you probably already know anyway, is one that can be re-dimensioned at run time. Let us know when and if you find an answer, please.

RE: [U2] Unidata Training
Depending on the vendor of the existing code, this approach might actually work against you. Of course, just trying stuff isn't a bad idea, particularly with a copy of documentation readily available. Asking questions in this list is always a good idea. But to go through existing code to learn how to program could have limited effectiveness if the code is poorly written. Particularly if a person has little experience to programming, how would they know what is good vs. what is bad? This could lead to propogation of ineffective programming techniques, significant frustration, and problems implementing what might otherwise be a simple solution. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin Scholl Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 5:35 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Unidata Training Kevin, Here is how I've learned most: Get on the 'Test' account and try.

After I execute one line of UniDynArray gymnastics, I check if the object has come back and is available before I execute the next line. What was: mitemClaim.SubValue(306, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(1) mitemClaim.SubValue(307, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(2) mitemClaim.SubValue(308, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(3) Becomes: mitemClaim.SubValue(306, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(1) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop mitemClaim.SubValue(307, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(2) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop mitemClaim.SubValue(308, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(3) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop Ugly but it gets me through a product demo until I come up with something better. I have to see if there is a VB.Net way of checking if an Interop Call has finished its thread and returned and released the argument. I am just no expert on this new .Net stuff Another thing I discovered on my research is that there is a way to make VS.Net single threaded by declaring at the beginning of a page: System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState = System.Threading.ApartmentState.STA whereby STA stands for 'Single Threaded Apartment' as opposed to MTA 'Multi-threaded-Apartment' This did not resolve my problem though.

Is it possible to work on uodotnet.UniDynArrays without having a session object open? I have tried to manipulate a uodotnet.UniDynArray, but when the session is closed, it throws an error.

RE: [U2] Universe 10 fnuxi problem
Thanks to all who have responded. Although I am not hearing what I wanted at least I know why it's not working. My next question then becomes: how can I use uvbackup to backup the files I need without marking each record as backed up? I have some files that a couple of million records and don't want to wait through the time it takes to mark each record as backed up. Is there an option that will just do the backup without setting the flag?

Re: [U2] UniObjects and VB.Net
A semaphore by any other name. It's a shame that there isn't a more elegant approach. Actually there probably is but the documentation can be hard to decipher. At least that confirms our suspicions.

Not beautiful, but I am not getting mangled UniDynArrays anymore. Here is what I do. After I execute one line of UniDynArray gymnastics, I check if the object has come back and is available before I execute the next line. What was: mitemClaim.SubValue(306, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(1) mitemClaim.SubValue(307, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(2) mitemClaim.SubValue(308, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(3) Becomes: mitemClaim.SubValue(306, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(1) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop mitemClaim.SubValue(307, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(2) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop mitemClaim.SubValue(308, gintLineNumber, pintCount).StringValue = pVarDTP_Array(3) Do While mitemClaim.StringValue = System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10) Loop Ugly but it gets me through a product demo until I come up with something better. I have to see if there is a VB.Net way of checking if an Interop Call has finished its thread and returned and released the argument. I am just no expert on this new .Net stuff Another thing I discovered on my research is that there is a way to make VS.Net single threaded by declaring at the beginning of a page: System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState = System.Threading.ApartmentState.STA whereby STA stands for 'Single Threaded Apartment' as opposed to MTA 'Multi-threaded-Apartment' This did not resolve my problem though.

It also might mean that the thing runs slow enough to be useless. Probably the better alternative would be to manipulate the dynamic array with whichever U2 you are using. Or it might work to make a flat file and use ADO and a stream but you might run into the same thread problems. Or make a number of smaller arrays so that the threads are less likely to collide. The problem with that is less likely may be too likely. Possibly the best answer is to ask the question on one of the MSDN news groups. They won't know what you mean about dynamic array so you may have to change the wording a bit. A dynamic array to a .NET developer, as you probably already know anyway, is one that can be re-dimensioned at run time. Let us know when and if you find an answer, please.

Here is what I believe is happening: VS.Not has a 'thunking' layer between its excution layer aka 'the CLR(Common Language Runtime)' aka 'virtual machine' aka 'Managed Code' and UniObjects, which is a dll that is compiled into machine code. For some reason this 'Interop Com Service' as Microsoft calls it, spawns off multiple threads that manipulate the UniDynArray. Those threads cross and mangle the array. I wonder if there is a way to make sure that one thread completes before the next one is started. A way to protect the UniArray from multiple access.

RE: [U2] Unidata Training
OK, I see that I did a little misleading when I told you that my accounting system was built on Unidata. While the database engine is Unidata, the programs that access it are written in Cobol. While I am very familiar with COBOL, I don't have access to the source. From what I know from the M/S world, I should be able to create tables and copy it where I can use report writers, ODBC, and web interfaces to get the answers that I need. Thanks for all the information that y'all have given me. Its been a big help.

Of course, just trying stuff isn't a bad idea, particularly with a copy of documentation readily available. Asking questions in this list is always a good idea. But to go through existing code to learn how to program could have limited effectiveness if the code is poorly written. Particularly if a person has little experience to programming, how would they know what is good vs. what is bad?

RE: [U2] UO.Net and UniDynArray
Hi Martin I suspect the issue you are having is not with the dynamic array, but that you are using a com object within the .Net framework, which requires it to step out of the environment each time you make a call, ie each time you update the dynamic array. The issue is not with UniObjects, but COM in .Net. You would resolve the problem going to IBM's U2 .Net interface as going with jBase or Raining data's .Net product. If you wish to stay with the com version, and it seems to be a batch update, you could put the update routine as a VB6 compiles routine and then pass the array to it to update as 1 com call. Alternatively you could build the dynamic array manually by concatenating the strings with CHAR(254), etc and stay fully in the .Net frame work. With .Net UniObj, I have opened a session, got data and closed the session and then used the dynamic array handling without issue, so you should not require a session to be open to use the dynamicarray facilities.

It would make UO.Net pretty useless for stateless paradigms like web programming. Has anybody tried jBase's mv.Net?

[U2] [UV] Run phantom as another user
Is there a way to run a phantom process as another user using the PHANTOM command? We have a situation where we have a background phantom process periodically monitoring a directory on another server. But, when the user that launched the phantom processor changes their password, the file open fails (due to expired credentials). We would like to have the phantom process 'run as' another user account that has the minimum access it needs where the password does not ever expire and create the failed open file problem. We are simply opening the file as a F voc pointer with line 2 \\server\sharename\directory. The universe config parameter ALLOWNFS is set to 1.

RE: [U2] [UV] Run phantom as another user
In a BASIC program you can use the AUTHORIZE statement to set a different security credential. (See the U2UG newsletter on the U2UG web site for the article of security) You set the statement to AUTHORIZE username Then compile the program as that user. Anyone running that program will run under that usernames credentials.
