[U2] [UV] errlog API
Does anyone know if there is any exposed API to enable a BASIC program to make entries to the UniVerse errlog? Thanks. Perry Taylor Zirmed, Inc.

[U2] Debugger Woes
OK boys and girls, here is a weird one! Last week, one of our programmers was looking for some issues with 2 programs in Avanté. All he did with the 1st program (IIREADUL) was add a comment and recompile the code with the debugger option. All he did to the 2nd program is recompile with the debugger on. For some weird reason, our barcode handheld users started core dumping! This was not constantly happening, but was occurring 5-10 times an hour. We did not initially hit on the fact that it was one or both of these programs (debug mode should NOT do this), but after recompiling them w/o the debugger, the problems disappeared. Any divine insight as to why having a program compiled with debug on would cause frequent (but not consistent) code dumps?

Re: [U2] Debugger Woes
Check the size of the program when compiled with the -D. You may be blowing some Shared Basic Code parameter in udtconfig. -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Israel, John R.

They've had several very high profile reverses lately. The obvious example to me is the London Stock Exchange, where their system failed publicly and dramatically, and has been replaced by a new system that is both faster and cheaper. I can't name any more examples off the top of my head, but I know there have been a fair few. I'm seeing a bunch of reports that their behaviour is typical for a company spiralling into Chapter 11 - some estimates are as close as 2012! They're up against serious competition from Apple and Linux now - for the first time in many years they're actually having to compete, and compete hard. And although they look profitable, they have long had a reputation for massaging the figures. Except now it looks like the figures are coming home to roost. And their big problem is the mismatch between where the expenses are incurred and the income is made. From what I can tell, the American operation is running at a loss, but overseas operations are profitable. The problem is that overseas operations are in tax havens, so while it looks like they're making more than they're spending, the money is not in the right place. And as soon as they repatriate the money, they will incur tax liabilities that will drive them into the red. In other words - America is not profitable. Bankruptcy is inevitable if they don't repatriate profits. But if they do repatriate profits, Uncle Sam will want his cut, which they can't afford, so bankruptcy is inevitable... If you want to trust Microsoft and rely on them, fine. But what's the saying? trust, but verify? What will you do if MS's activation servers go down, and Windows et al stops working?

Re: [U2] Simple FMT question
Ya know, this makes sense. Though I should never get to a 5 digit number, I've been bit before with assuming things like that. I think it was mentioned earlier to do a LEN() check. I think I want to stay away from changing the BasicType, though. No guessing what can of worms THAT would open. Thanks everyone for your insights!
