[U2] Printing Printer controls from Universe
Hi All, Does anyone know how to send a control code to a printer connected as a slave? I have tried to send the escape sequence but it is not being interpreted by the printer, just printed out.

RE: [U2] How to use LOCATE in an I Descriptor
If you like gymnastics and particularly wish to avoid a subr, you can
use the vector EQS function with INDEX to find stuff - it's fugly but
works reasonably efficiently...
001 I
002 MV.ATTRIBUTE.TO.SEARCH;EQS(REUSE('SEARCH.STRING'),@1);IF SUM(@2)
THEN @11,(INDEX(@2,1,1)+1)/2 ELSE 'NOT FOUND'
003 ...
The EQS produces a string like 0:v:0:v...0:v:1 and if the SUM() is 0
then there has been a hit. The INDEX() function then finds the 1 in
the string. The MV position can be derived by the index() result + 1 and
division by 2.
-Original Message-
I have someone asking me how to use a LOCATE statement in an I
Descriptor. I have never done that and would not know if it is
possible, or what the syntax is. Does anyone know if you can do this,
and what the syntax would be to use the resultant location?

[U2] [UD 7.1] [Solaris 9]
REPOSTED FOR NON-MEMBER ADDRESS: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, Are there any NFA users out there that can help me with an issue? I 'd like to copy 10 files from our production server to our test server. The problem is that NFA doesn't allow me to use the ECL command COPY. I don't want to run through every file copying record by record since that will take some time and it's not a neat solution. We are also implementing RFS so we can't use unix copy. Does anyone have a way to solve this I'd be glad.

Re: [U2] Printing Printer controls from Universe
James, Reinstall your printer on (whatever) operating system using the Generic Text Driver rather than the manufacturer's printer driver. This will allow the ESC sequences to pass thru to your printer as ESC sequences. On Windows, set the Print Processor to WinPrint and the Default Data Type to Raw. If your HP printer is a laser printer, this should work. If it's an ink jet printer, it may not have the intelligence to respond to your ESC sequence commands. hth, Dave Dave Taylor CEO Sysmark Information Systems, Inc. 49 Aspen Way Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274 800-SYSMARK (800-797-6275) (O) 310-544-1974 (C) 310-561-5200 (F) 310-377-3550 www.sysmarkinfo.com Your Source for Integrated EDI Translation, DataSync Integration and Software Migration Authorized IBM Business Partner - Original Message - From: James Hutchinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 10:32 PM Subject: [U2] Printing Printer controls from Universe Hi All, Does anyone know how to send a control code to a printer connected as a slave?

RE: [U2] Looking for a White Paper
Charles Do you must mean the internal tests done for IBM's own system? The announcement below was posted to this list by Stephen O'Neal under the thread: 15,200 users attained on IBM's U2 UniVerse (which is a bit more than 2K..). He or Tim may have more details. Here's the original post: This last weekend, we attained a new high number of users on a U2 database of 15,200 on a single system running an application! Tim Snyder, Principle Consultant of the U2 Lab Services group, performed this formal benchmark at one of the IBM benchmark centers on an IBM p590 + 64 dual core CPUs for a total of 128 processors + 124gb memory (no, that's not a typo - that's all the benchmark center had available - odd number though) + 34 disk drives, striped with JFS2 on two FAStT controllers It required an IBM p570 divided into 4 LPARs (logical partitions) to push the load which simulated 30 different processes. It took 6 weeks of preparation before the 3 weeks to set up the simulation at the benchmark facility. The application was from Pacific Decision Sciences Corporation (www.pdsc.com). The database had over 1 billion records in it. Cheers Brian All, IBM did a test on the volume of users successfully supported on a U2 (UniVerse, I think) server.

We had to disable multi-threading sort as we were getting unable to create pipe errors on occasion and we were having problems with our indices.

[U2] Website Questions
Hi All Can someone answer these two questions, posted on the U2UG website? Thanks in advance Brian 1. Is there a 64 bit ODBC/OleDB driver available for UniVerse? 2. Users getting kicked out of UniVerse. We have Universe 10.1 running in Windows 2003. It seems like when we are getting close to our license limit, users that are currently logged in are getting kicked out. We are using telnet to connect to the server.

RE: [U2] Printing Printer controls from Universe
Your ESCAPE [CHAR(27)] may well be intercepted. Check your terminal / terminal emulation specification for what it might intercept. Odds on it that never gets to the printer. You might be able to send an alternate character (155 for example - 128+27) or use a different slave print mode (e.g. passthru'). Otherwise there may well be something in the emulation documentation that tells you how to escape and ESCAPE. I've seen this done a few ways: CHAR(27) meaning escape; followed CHAR(27) meaning ESCAPE again - but the ESCAPE was escaped meaning send an ESCAPE. The addition of 128 to the ASCII value was another, I've also seen games with SI and SO to escape a character.

RE: [U2] UVTSORT config parameter
Why was it made a switch ? (pass) -- Not all platforms supported the function but if it was not supported then it didn't use it regardless (naturally). It was fortunate that it *was* a switch though - as there were occasional issues where you needed to turn it off (see the release notes for fixes) - however that's history. The possibility of issues may have been in the developer's minds (a guess on my part). Nowadays I would always turn it on. Shedding some (albeit dim) light in the shade.

I've used the Process At End in the report definition to chain reports together. Everything ends up in the same spool file that way. One report's process at end calls another process that generates a report, and so on and so on. I've used this method to create an empty shell report to run non-SB+ output through the report writer.

In another way of looking at it: Sort by key go through the list pulling out, but retaining the key order, sorting the cities then, retaining that order, sort by name.

Thus SSELECT FILE BY CITY should be different than SSELECT FILE BY @ID BY CITY as the first would gather all the records BY CITY then within each CITY, they would be sorted by @ID (the default). Using @ID anywhere but the last sort field (or implied) would not make sense as they are guaranteed to be unique and not need a tie breaker. Please check again.

RE: [U2] How to use LOCATE in an I Descriptor
Since I like to avoid subroutines when I can, this is how I would do it (using
Perry's sample data slightly modified):
EVENTCODE
P]B]F]B]R
And
EVENTSTATUS
A-T]B-T]FP-T]K-P]A-P
TRIM(IFS(EQS(EVENTCODE,REUSE('B')),EVENTSTATUS,REUSE('')),@VM)
Which returns all values for EVENTCODE 'B', else empty. My concern with using
INDEX is that you usually end up with only the first occurence in the results.

Re: [U2] [UV] Speeding up a big BY.EXP select
My premise was that SSELECT FILE BY @ID BY FIELDNAME is not the same as SSELECT FILE BY FIELDNAME. The second one is technically SSELECT FILE BY FIELDNAME BY @ID My 1 cent Mark Johnson - Original Message - From: Jerry Banker [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Friday, August 10, 2007 10:32 AM Subject: RE: [U2] [UV] Speeding up a big BY.EXP select I'm not exactly sure how the programming is done on this but from the outside it is all relative to how you look at it. Let's take the statement: SSELECT CUSTOMERS BY NAME BY CITY In one way it can be seen as: Sort by name with each name sort by city with each city sort by key. In another way of looking at it: Sort by key go through the list pulling out, but retaining the key order, sorting the cities then, retaining that order, sort by name. Either way if you throw a BY @ID in there the SSELECT becomes redundant and the SSELECT is done for no reason. Jerry -Original Message- From: MAJ Programming [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 6:24 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] [UV] Speeding up a big BY.EXP select Jerry: Are you sure. Please make sure that what you are saying is correct. The SSELECT statement has traditionally sorted on the @ID last for the last 30 years. It would be news to me to learn that it sorts BY @ID automatically first because of the double S in SSELECT. Thus SSELECT FILE BY CITY should be different than SSELECT FILE BY @ID BY CITY as the first would gather all the records BY CITY then within each CITY, they would be sorted by @ID (the default). Using @ID anywhere but the last sort field (or implied) would not make sense as they are guaranteed to be unique and not need a tie breaker. Please check again.
