Will 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.

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.

Message-ID: 5211-1330735447-988...@sneakemail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii 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 On first connect got message that the Server programs are out-of-date with option to update XTOOLSUB to v3.100.0.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).

In this day and age U2 needs start to understand spaces in paths, etc. and Windows standards.

Re: [U2] New U2 BDT
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.

Re: [U2] New U2 BDT
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.
