Re: RES: [U2] Universe and triggers
Clif See point 6 on my post grin It's not enough on a 24x7 site to just have a wrapper if the name of the subroutine doesn't change - UniVerse may still cache the object code in memory if the file is opened e.g. to named common. So I hold the name of the routine to call externally, and have the master trigger read it. Then I can vary it when the subroutine changes (e.g. adding a version number to the end). Brian Oooo! Now there's a neat trick (excuse me, technique). I'd never thought of it. Have you ever used Mark Baldridge's Profiler (Travels With Mark, on the IBM Developer Works site) to quantify what I assume is a rather trivial amount of overhead in the double call? If not, I'll take a go at it and report back. It sounds like a great technique. Thanks! -- Regards, Clif ~~~ W.

Re: [U2] Product Distribution Methods
Dave, My company markets a Universe application too, and like your company we have developed our own server-side distribution methods. When I think about the issue, it seems two-fold: (a) how do we get our software on the server in the first place, and (b) how do we keep it up to date with the latest and greatest? If I've misunderstood the problem that you want to discuss, you can just stop here and delete this email. (a) We actually keep our source code for our product in CVS, and we build new Universe accounts for our target platform. That includes creating the files, loading the dictionaries and data, compiling the programs, etc. via our build scripts. The resulting accounts are zipped or tarred to place onto distribution media. We expect Universe to be installed separately from our product. (b) Updates are a bit trickier, since they have to dovetail into existing systems that have been modified. From CVS and scripts, we can generate patch files that can be installed. The patch program can detect the conflicts, or otherwise install the newer software. Right now, ours is an on-demand process, and would greatly benefit from a windows update type of automation. Personally, I would welcome an open source approach. As a community, we need to lower the barriers to entry in all aspects of U2 training, development, and operations. rex --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Karl quote who=Stephen O'Neal Scott Thompson asked ... What is the best way to verify the integrity of a file while users are accessing (if possible at all)? Please note that Scott only asked for a single file... Runner Up: Karl P was extremely close with LIST FNAME LASTATTRIBUTE. If he would have added DET.SUP, he would have been a Winner. This would have avoided the output. Karl's entry would require you to press the ENTER key as the @ID and LASTATTRIBUTE were displayed for every record. You would probably get sick of this after a while and enter a S to suppress the output when the PAK (Press Any Key to continue) prompt was requested. However, you would have to write a rather extensive PAragraph or PRoc to include ALL of the files. And the Winner is: Jerry Banker who stated: You can try doing a uvbackup on the file to /dev/null. When the file is backed up it checks the integrity of the file. Jerry uvbackup is the only utility that goes thru all of the files and reports on its integrity. uvbackup can be run with users on the system. The question that was not asked... Should I add the uvbackup on the file to /dev/null to my monthly processes to verify the integrity of the database? Best business practices state that this should be included every month.

RE: [U2] Easysoft ODBC driver [ad/solution/sigh]
Hello, We have many products that will move data push or pull data to SQL Server, depending on the skill sets you want to use and your product roadmaps, this will determine the best product for your environment. While it's possible to pull from SQL Server, you may well wish to control the push from a Universe/BASIC program. In that case, FusionWare has a bridge product that allows you to use an API (BASIC Subroutines) to do the equivalent of BASIC's OPEN, READ, WRITE, DELETE as well as the equivalent of TCL SELECT and COPY, to/from SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, MySQL and other databases. If pull from SQL is not what you are looking for, as we mentioned above, then we have other solutions that could help you, including FusionWare Direct ADO.Net provider. [/AD] Please contact me if you would like further information. Thank you, Janet Bond FusionWare Corporation 1.866.266.2326 x159 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony G Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2007 7:01 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Easysoft ODBC driver [ad/solution/sigh] Brenda Price wrote: We will only be using to from UniVerse to access a MicroSoft SQL for our credit card numbers this is due to PCI compliance and we wanted 1 database for all of our different systems. From the UniVerse side of things, we will have to access the SQL with a batch process 2 times a day, with an average of 2-3000 records. You really don't need to push data from UV to SQL Server, you can pull it at timed intervals (seconds to hours) and encrypt it for the transfer on the way. This can be done with UO.NET and other tools. You also don't need to hardcode SQL queries into your MV BASIC code. The [ad]: Nebula RD sells mv.NET which is a solution that you have probably not considered for this task, though it can be used to push AND pull data for any connectivity application. Feel free to contact me for information about connecting your UV/UD system to anything, including relational databases. The solution: I have a simple demo ready for anyone who wants to see it which populates SQL Server from any MV DBMS on any OS. This isn't productized, there's no need to productize something as simple as this. It's pulling data from MV without putting SQL into the MV environment or touching data or dictionaries. The data is then put into whatever database you want using whatever functions are available to the RDBMS. I'm using Insert queries to do the initial load and a Stored Procedure for the updates - just to show it can be done. The code can be used to push from MV (over Win/*nix/Linux) or to pull from any middle tier server or workstation. I haven't done any optimization on it yet but so far I'm getting about 385 Inserts per second and 485 Updates per second. That includes the time to connect, sselect, transport, perform queries, and disconnect, and I'm running this regularly with several thousand data items. I'm only doing one update at a time - someone with a clue might suggest updating 100 records or more at a time to improve throughput. Using UO.NET into UV the performance could be even better, I haven't tried yet. As MV people we know how to code and manage our environments but we can leave the RDBMS stuff to the RDBMS DBAs. There's no need to hardcode SQL queries into your MV application, buy a specific driver for some RDBMS, or modify your MV data to look relational. mv.NET is only $260 for a single runtime license. If you are doing your own development it's $635 for the developer license. That includes 2 runtime licenses, so the net cost is only $135 for the developer license - hardly taking anyone to the cleaners... Compare that to the #899 for something like the Easysoft ODBC-Oracle Driver which doesn't have a fraction of the features. Nebula RD provides the current version of all demos for free but without support to Nebula RD clients. Nebula developers can work with clients to enhance the demos or develop new solutions - this is where we derive our income, not really on sales of tools.

RE: [U2] Easysoft ODBC driver - Anyone had any issues with it?
We have legacy CALLC functions using ODBC API. One of our functions uses SQLFetchScroll with forward and backward cursors. Their ODBC cursor implementation worked only when SQL_ATTR_ROW_ARRAY_SIZE was 1 (one). That issue was found during my product evaluation time. However, one of ES Support engineers was very helpful and fixed it. According to the UniData BCI document, SQLFetchScroll() is not implemented. If you use BCI as is, it shouldn't be a problem (lucky you!). BTW, I believe that the cursor implementation of the latest version of ES Oracle ODBC driver works correctly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Banker Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2007 10:14 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Easysoft ODBC driver - Anyone had any issues with it?

I like ES because * Cheaper than SequeLink * Easy to install. * and ES Support is very responsible. ES knows about U2. You can even find BCI installation document on their site.

RE: [U2] What is this error??
Take a look at the ED code - it's in the BP of the uvhome account, named ED.B There's a bunch of code relating to CASE, and there's this mod line at the top of the program: 06/01/03 E2835 LFD For 10.1 TCL Case Insensitivity project So, I guess you can blame someone with the initials LFD ;) But, what I can't believe is that some of you guys are still using ED. Why? You must have access to something better than a line editor. AdrianW DISCLAIMER: Disclaimer. This e-mail is private and confidential.

[U2] [UD] create file
Hello group, I am a UV guy and I need some UD assistance. In UV I can OPENSEQ /path/file TO FV ELSE CREATE FV ELSE STOPM nope END Which will create the file if it doesn't exit, after which I can READEQ or READBLK to my heart's content. But UD dies at the CREATE statment. Also, instead of READBLK WRITEBLK it is OSBREAD, OSBWRITE in UD, correct ?

[U2] Question - retrieving file separation setting
In a Universe environment, (running either on Windows or *nix), does anyone know a fast way to determine the separation of a file? Type, Modulo, etc are easily returned via the FILEINFO function, but separation doesn't appear to be retrievable that way.

RE: [U2] U2 University in Sydney
I recently attended the U2 University in Sydney. I would recommend everyone tries to attend whether end users, resellers or ISVs. IBM U2 division have been putting a lot of effort into RD and there are a number of new technologies that will change your thinking in development and continued use of U2 into the future. I will steal some of Susie's thunder and point out that U2 grew 14% last year so this is not losing edger technology. How many other database vendors can talk about double digit growth? The new IBM .Net provider for U2, allows you to do with U2 what you can do with other RDBMS including store procedures, etc. The EDA facility to extend to other databases is looking very mature and functional. So don't miss out learning about these new products. Regards David Jordan --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] [UD] create file
There is no CREATE in UD. OPENSEQ will open the file if it exists or create it if it doesn't. If it can't create the file, STATUS() will return a reason why it can't be created. In the ELSE branch of the OPENSEQ statement, if STATUS() = 0, you can proceed to WRITESEQ (or OSBWRITE) to the file. Possible STATUS() values: 0 The record does not exist. 1 The file you specify is not a sequential-access file. 2 The file does not exist. 3 The READONLY clause was included in the command statement and the record does not exist. 4 An unknown error occurred (such as having too many files open or permission problems). OPENSEQ '/path/file' TO FV ELSE IF STATUS() NE 0 THEN STOP 'UNABLE TO OPEN SEQ FILE' END WRITESEQ test... ON FV ELSE STOP CAN'T WRITE TO SEQ FILE WEOFSEQ FV CLOSESEQ FV OSBREAD/OSBWRITE is used for block oriented access. If your file is line-oriented, you can use READSEQ/WRITESEQ. You can also use WEOFSEQ to write an End-of-file marker to the file (and truncates it at that point) before you close it (CLOSESEQ) Hope this helps Larry Hiscock Western Computer Services http://www.wcs-corp.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott Ballinger Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2007 6:44 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] [UD] create file Hello group, I am a UV guy and I need some UD assistance.

RE: [U2] U2 University in Sydney
If you can, send at least two people. There are three tracks, each with 15 sessions. A few of the main ones are repeated, but one person can't learn everything he/she would want to. It was a well put-together show, even if one or two of the presenters were overworked (at least for the Sydney show), and most of the attendees to whom I spoke went away with their brains bulging - if not hurting. Also a great opportunity to catch up with the U2 community, who nowadays seem to meet far too infrequently. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
