I never thought of SB+ having a steep learning curve.  

My spin is that SB+ has a lot of features and functionality.

I belive that IBM and Epicor have report-generation tools.  Also, there is
MITS.

I (we) just use UniBasic, Dynamic Connect, and wIntegrate.

Subject: [U2] Green Screen Dev. Environment


Hi list,



I'm researching the types of character based development tools that are
available in the UV environment for screen and report development.
We're cutting/pasting code from our vendors software, which is poorly
coded btw, to create new screens and what not.  It's a mess and I really
want to get away from this practice.

I know we can use gui tools like VS, MV.net, etc, but our transactional
system is all character based and that's what we want to stick with for
the time being.  I know AREV and SB+ are out there, but are there others
that anyone is using that is not 'home grown'?  And if you are using
AREV or SB+ how do you like it?



Thx,



Rudy

Re: [U2] [AD] Green Screen Dev. Environment

2007-10-08 Thread Kevin King
True, not everyone has difficulty with SB+, but having trained a lot of SB+
developers over the years, that's the opinion I hear the most.  As you
stated, SB+ has a lot of features and functionality, but equally important
is the ability to rapidly get results, which can be a significant cost saver
over the development lifecycle.  And with that being said, there are still a
number of shops trying to implement SB+ solutions using BASIC implementation
paradigms and trading away much of the rapid development features in the
process.  This then leads to the perception that development actually takes
longer and is more difficult using SB+ than it does in BASIC, when the
reality is that personal choices of how the product is used is more likely
to have contributed to the reduced productivity.

Is it possible your work server is subscribed and you're on the internal 
distribution list?

See if you can look at the email header to find out if it's been forwarded from 
somewhere.

[U2] Locks in subroutines

2007-10-08 Thread Noel

Hi all,

I am porting some code from D3 to Universe 10.1.11 on Windows (and then 
to Linux 10.2.x)


I have a subroutine that does a READU on an item and leaves the lock set 
when it returns to the calling the program (The calling program will 
release the lock at a later stage). However, Universe is releasing the 
lock when it returns from subroutine. Is this a known feature and is 
there an option to turn off this behaviour?


Cheers,
Noel

You're not subscribed to any of the lists with an activant.com email

Re: [U2] Locks in subroutines

2007-10-08 Thread Scott Ballinger
Noel,

I use a generic readu subroutine most everywhere (it handles the locked
clause, sends msgs, retries, etc) and I don't have that problem:

.L RELLEVEL

 RELLEVEL
001 X
002 10.1.4
003 PICK
004 PICK.FORMAT
005 10.1.4

Perhaps there is a uvconfig setting that affects it?

RE: [U2] Locks in subroutines

2007-10-08 Thread Bernard Lubin
Hi Noel,

We have ported some programs from d3 to UniVerse.  

What we found is that if your subroutine is re-opening the files with the
record locks, all records locks are released when the file is opened in your
subroutine.  Please check to ensure that your subroutine is not reopening
the file concerned.

We also found that if you EXECUTE another program and locks the same item
in your executed program, the lock will be released when the executed
program is terminated.

I just did a quick test of your scenario and got the same results that you
experienced.  However, if I have the file variable defined in either a
labelled or unlabelled common, the lock stays.

Re: [U2] Green Screen Dev. Environment

Hi Rudy,

AD We've been using UHL, (Ultra High-Level Language), for over 20 years to 
develop character-based applications for Wholesale Distribution, Discreet 
Manufacturing, EDI and Global Datasynchronization.

UHL has also been used to develop a number of other applications - eg. 
Collection Agencies.

It started out running on R83 and has been ported to A/P, D3, mvBase, C. Itoh, 
R91 and other databases.

We have  recently ported UHL to Universe and we offer a companion product, 
SpoolerPlus, to provide a generic Pick print spooler on Universe and Unidata. 

I'll be glad to provide you with additional information and answer any 
questions 
if you wish./AD

Very quick testing on my home machine, (Win2K and Universe PE) suggests 
that if you pass the opened file pointer from the main to the cataloged 
routine it works as you would expect.  If however, you do the file open 
within the subroutine it releases the lock when you return to the 
calling program.

[U2] [AD] SAPUG mtg, Tony Gravagno - .NET - Oct 18th

2007-10-08 Thread Ross Morrissey
Please join the Seattle Area Pick Users Group next Thursday, Oct 18th
as we welcome prolific U2-Users contributor Tony Gravagno for
afternoon and evening sessions.

Tony Gravagno has been in the Pick market for over 25 years.  In 1995
he joined Pick Systems where he served as Support Technician, QA
Manager, Corporate Technical Account Manager, and finally as DBMS
Product  Manager for Raining Data. In 2001 Tony started Nebula
Research and Development  to focus on providing unique services and
products for all Pick/MV platforms, allowing VARs to sell more
software and end-users to get the most from their IT  investment.
Today Nebula RD has partnerships and distribution agreements  with
companies and individuals around the world. Tony has collaborated on
published books and magazine articles related to .NET, and has
authored many  articles for the MV market on a variety of topics. He
comes to us as a community  pundit - always thought provoking, often
controversial - with information and  insight for all IT and
management levels.

Afternoon: The Afternoon session will be on the .NET  Framework: what
it is and is not, who can use it, alternatives to .NET, where it  fits
with *nix, and how all of this applies to MV. This is intended for
decision  makers looking for strategic direction, IT staff who want to
know what this means for them, and vendors who want to know what they
should be recommending to their clients. This presentation should lead
you to that final Oh, I get  it!

Evening: Following up on the afternoon session, the evening  session
is intended for those now considering solutions which make use of
.NET.  This discussion will profile mv.NET as a valuable tool for a
variety of applications. Details include a  brief look at code to
access MV structures and programs, update relational data,  and allow
your MV application to provide Web Services. The goal is to help
bridge the mental gaps, and clarify how to get from here to there when
connecting your MV application with the world.

For further details, and to RSVP, visit http://www.sapug.org today.
