RE: RE: [U2] [UV] Basic Program Scheduling Priority
If you VLIST it, the RQM compiles to Sleep 1. Brian The RQM statement has not appeared in any universe documentation at least as far back v6. I actually had to locate some old prime manuals to find out what this was statement was all about. I recall reading some blurb somewhere that although RQM is still supported by the universe compiler it is in effect a NOP and doesn't actually do anything on any platform.

Normally you will get the internal date for both birth and 'test' date

before 12/31/67 will be neg as 12/31/67 is day 0
so internal bdate 10/12/67 is -80 and internal test date 4/6/2006 is

In this case we want 13976 + abs -80 = 14056/4

RE: [U2] RE: [UV] Calculate age from date of birth
For age in whole years, this is pretty easy, just subtract the DOB year from the current year to get age, but if the current month and day are earlier in the year than the date of birth month and day, subtract 1 from the age. Suppose variable DOB holds the date of birth in internal format. This code will give you the age today: DOBX = OCONV(DOB,'D4/') DOB.YR = DOBX[7,4] DOB.DA = DOBX[4,2] DOB.MO = DOBX[1,2] NOWX = OCONV(DATE(),'D4/') NOW.YR = NOWX[7,4] NOW.DA = NOWX[4,2] NOW.MO = NOWX[1,2] AGE = NOW.YR - DOB.YR * We will subtract 1 from age if the 'now' month day is earlier in the * year than the 'dob' month day, otherwise not IF NOW.MO DOB.MO THEN AGE = AGE - 1 END ELSE IF NOW.MO = DOB.MO AND NOW.DA DOB.DA THEN AGE = AGE - 1 END END * The variable AGE now holds their age as of the current day. This even works if the DOB is 02/29 in some year, assuming that 02/28 in the current year is not a person's birthday, but 03/01 is considered to be their birthday.

RE: [U2] [UV] Calculate age from date of birth
Okay, to be truly accurate - divide by 365.25.

Re: [U2] Integration of UniVerse with Microsoft Team System 2005 {Unclassified}
Be careful about getting food poisoning at that Buffet. :-) Do not forget that Paragraphs, Procs, and I-descriptors are also programming code that must be put under IT controls. I had some success by keeping copies of everything (yes, even individual I-descriptors) in a type 19 library with a composite record ID consisting of system name, file path, and item record ID and putting *that* under controls. Things get checked in and out of there. You then need a framework to publish these items to the proper place in UV when they are checked in (publish to testing) and then again when released to production, with the proper logging, of course. The only other way to do it (because of our hashed files that only things like PRC know about) is to keep all VOCs and DICTs as type 19, like I am told Vmark did in the early days when they were using the Unix utils (RCS?) to manage change control. -- Regards, Clif ~~~ W.

Really, couldn't it be also argued that - along with what Clif has mentioned - that ALL dictionaries - even phrases - are code to be under control as well, not just I-descriptors.

Actually, this isn't 100% accurate. There are quite a few dates for which this will generate an age that is off by one year. I created a demonstration program a long time ago to prove this, because we had a program that was using this logic. It never seemed quite right to me, and it is right *almost* every time. Calculating ages as of January 16, 2007 for all dates in the last ten years will show incorrect ages for January 16 of the following years: 1997, 1998, 2001, 2002, 2005, and 2006. For example, January 16, 2006 shows as zero years old (365/365.25 is less than 1). My preferred method of calculating age is to extract the month, day, and year of both dates and calculate the age as the difference between the years. Then, if the target MMYY is less than the birth MMYY, subtract one from the age. In other words, pretty much the way you would do it in your head - or at least the way I do it in my head. ;-) This also handles all leap-year rules, including those funky 100- and 400-year ones, which are not accommodated by simply dividing by 365.25.

Re: [U2] [UV] Basic Program Scheduling Priority
I would believe that whatever entity it was releasing circa 1975 is clearly a non-issue now. I believe the concept was spokes on a wheel where each slice was a user's exclusive use of the processor and the RQM caused your pie slice to conclude and you had to wait until it went around again. It made sense with the TIMESLICE command to increase your 'slice'. If the concept of the processor managing the users in such a circular fashion (albeit screamingly faster) then releasing one's 'slice' would be so incrementally tiny that it would not even matter. One could argue that the NULL command is equally long in its duration.

OOPS!!! I need to correct what I just posted. In the following statement: Then, if the target MMYY is less than the birth MMYY, subtract one from the age. both of those references should say MMDD instead of MMYY.

Re: [U2] Integration of UniVerse with Microsoft Team System 2005 {Unclassified}
Excellent point, Kevin. Even changing the column width on a dictionary item can cause a production run failure. When I lock down or audit trail systems for SOX, I usually just sledge-hammer it and make anything that goes into a DICT or a VOC under IT controls. In this case, my brain was thinking more along procedures and expressions. And don't forget NEWACC and DICT.DICT and the stuff in UV and the grin -- Regards, Clif ~~~ W.
