 What specific advantage does Eclipse give to U2 developers ?
It's a standard doesn't really impress me, unless there is something I can 
use myself, today.
I'm  not asking what BDT gives me, what does Eclipse give me.
And the ability to use BDT is not a valid argument.

Eclipse is a pain, but at the moment it provides a base that works for windows 
and linux offerings.  It is a standard base for Rocket tools including datavu, 
webservices, restful servives, EDA, etc.

I support David's comments that rather than putting down products, we need to 
work with Rocket in how to improve the products.   There are many opportunities 
for test tools and other development tools to be integrated with BDT that could 
help developers productivity.  However Rocket will not invest in this product 
if 
we constantly put it down.

It is also something as developers should look at how they manage source code.  
 
Maybe the source code that is to be edited should be taken out of a library and 
stored in a development spot which would have a local directory.

Whilst there is still work to go on BDT, it is an evolving product and 
something 
that makes U2 look more professional something that the community has had to 
battle with in the eyes of management and consultants

 Hi Bill:

 After testing BDT, I'm wrong.  BDT does recognize environment variables.
   However, you cannot open or edit any files that are not DIR files.  
 So you are trying to edit an LD file and it does not let you.

 I figured this out when our editor allowed editing of those files.  So 
 there really is not a bug but a BDT feature.

I  was pointing out eclipse gives the ability to run a tool on windows and 
linux.  The alternative is that Rocket built a tool that only runs on windows.  
Whilst I am not particularly fond of eclipse I understand the reasoning for it. 
   Similar reason why Doug uses it as a base for his tools.  Eclipse comes from 
IBM and has a number of third party development tools that can interface with 
that environment.  For U2 Developers, they have access to a free tool, the same 
for web developer, restful services, etc.   Other environments may have 
attracted a charge for the base tools the environment is built.

Whilst it is easy to knock a solution, the key is to provide a better 
alternative and at this stage I have not seen a better alternative for Rocket 
to base its tools on.

Eclipse is a developer framework. Dunno much about it, but the big
advantage it has is a LOT of people know it. It's also Free (libre) so
it's easy to extend if you want to.

If we want U2 to fit in well with other environments, rather than living
in a silo on its own, Eclipse is a good fit. It wouldn't surprise me if
lots of DB2 stuff is written in Eclipse, Oracle stuff, Java stuff, etc etc.

I take your point about not another tool for us long-suffering U2 guys
to learn, but the point is this is a tool that a lot of non-U2 guys
know, and we ought to know it too.

I'm providing notes about XAdmin since we're here.  Bottom line, it's
working fine.

I installed the DBTools but originally put them under:
C:\Program Files\Rocket Software\U2\U2Tools The first startup failed, saying
I should look for a log under U2Tools\v3.
That log wasn't there. I suspect a W7 permissions issue and figured this  is
why the installer wanted to install under the c:\U2 directory in the first
place. But after so many years isn't it clear yet that products should be
installed under Program Files, not root, and that should be written to
%AppData% (different for W7/XP, etc)?

I uninstalled but the Program Files tree remained.  Apparently the uninstall
doesn't remove the JRE6 that it installed. OK, that's another issue. First,
why not mandate the JRE get installed into a common location first? Second,
if you're going to install software, uninstall it too.

I put my second installation under C:\Databases\U2\U2Tools, since I have all
of my databases in that tree as well. On startup I did get the XAdmin. Yay.

I created a Server reference and attempted to Connect, got error 39202.
Recognized this as an RPC error and ... oops, I had shutdown Universe. Start
services, got connect. Yay.

On first connect got message that the Server programs are out-of-date with
option to update XTOOLSUB to v3.100.0.
Click OK. Wait. Nothing. Is something happening? Guess not. Move on.

Open Tasks/Network Services to change telnet/ssh ports (avoid conflicts with
other MV products). Change my Universe service to use the new telnet port
for debugging. Now set Windows Firewall to allow the new ports. Connect in
from outside. Yay!

I hope that helps someone (whether U2Tools developers or fellow users).

Tony,

When I had to install U2 (Unidata stuff) after some years of not using on a
Win7 machine (although it's not specifically related to Win7) I tried to
install some stuff under the traditional C:\Program Files (x86) instead of
the default c:\u2 and ran into the same issues Tony did.  In this day and
age  U2 needs start to understand spaces in paths, etc. and Windows
standards. I hate having to specify rogue program files outside the windows
standard location for such data (i.e. C:\Program Files [x86]\ in my backup
plan. [end rant].

Re: [U2] New U2 BDT

2012-03-11 Thread Doug Averch
What does Eclipse bring to the table for U2 Developers? (Slightly
paraphrased).  Eclipse is an IDE that has plug-ins. These plug-ins can do
many things:

1) Editing programs, dictionaries and data
2) Version control using standards like CVS, SVN, GIT, Perforce,  Team
Foundation
2) Resizing database files
3) Installer for database files, dictionaries, procs, paragraphs, and
programs.
4) Web Developer
5) U2 Administrator functions
6) Other plug-ins for languages like PHP, C++, C, and many more.

In addition to those plug-ins, Eclipse can be leveraged to do everything
you can do from TCL/ECL.

1) Copy and Paste that is thousand times faster than COPY
2) Creating files, programs, dictionaries, procs, and paragraphs
3) Renaming files, programs, dictionaries, procs, and paragraphs
4) Deleting files, programs, dictionaries, procs, and paragraphs
5) Windows like explorer to see all of files in account instead of LISTFL
6) Ability to filter the explorer to see only the files you want
6) Ability to copy from U2 Databases to local for Version Control

Miscellaneous:
1) IDE interface like Visual Studio and others
2) Learning curve is a few days to several weeks depending on prior IDE
experience
3) Local history for all editor changes
4) Ability to have several accounts open at once
5) Built-in compare editor
6) Built-in search engine instead of ESEARCH

There is real power, efficiency that can be gained from an Eclipse IDE.
 I've been using Eclipse IDE since 2004 and cannot believe what a better
environment I'm in.

Hi Will

Eclipse is the same interface for the U2 Web Services, the U2 Restful Services, 
the U2 xml tools, the U2 EDA tools, U2 Web Developer.   It is a common 
interface for the range of U2 products, not just BDT.  It is an IDE used by 
other technology companies to host their tools.  It also has interfaces for 
other products.  Even Microsoft has an interface for Eclipse tools to integrate 
with Azure cloud services.   

Eclipse also runs on Apple's Macintosh.   With a growing base in that market, 
Rocket can provide tools  for developers who prefer to work in that environment.

 The concept is similar,  but there's an additional step.

 ost UV shops in my experience don't bother with it, but I think it's a

Eclipse is a pain, but at the moment it provides a base that works for
windows and linux offerings.  It is a standard base for Rocket tools
including datavu, webservices, restful servives, EDA, etc.

I support David's comments that rather than putting down products, we need
to work with Rocket in how to improve the products.   There are many
opportunities for test tools and other development tools to be integrated
with BDT that could help developers productivity.  However Rocket will not
invest in this product if we constantly put it down.

It is also something as developers should look at how they manage source
code.   Maybe the source code that is to be edited should be taken out of a
library and stored in a development spot which would have a local directory.

Whilst there is still work to go on BDT, it is an evolving product and
something that makes U2 look more professional something that the community
has had to battle with in the eyes of management and consultants

Thanks, Doug.

Not much of a tool, especially when you have to download and install all the
junk that goes with it!  :-(

 Hi Bill:

 After testing BDT, I'm wrong.  BDT does recognize environment variables.
   However, you cannot open or edit any files that are not DIR files.  
 So you are trying to edit an LD file and it does not let you.

 I figured this out when our editor allowed editing of those files.  So 
 there really is not a bug but a BDT feature.

 Regards,
 Doug

 What specific advantage does Eclipse give to U2 developers ?
It's a standard doesn't really impress me, unless there is something I can
use myself, today.
I'm  not asking what BDT gives me, what does Eclipse give me.
And the ability to use BDT is not a valid argument.
