Re: [U2] Scrub Hangs Up

2012-08-29 Thread Mecki Foerthmann

I would expect this not to work.
D_INVOICE is a dictionary file so it hasn't got a dictionary.
If you try copy FROM DICT INVOICE TO DICT INVOICE_TEST it should 
probably work.

Yes, Dennis, it did. There are long technical explanations of how it worked, 
but it was indeed a clever, 'techie-appealing' concept. Back in the old 
Microdata days (yes, I'm that old), you could get in big trouble with the 
timeslice approach, though. If your timeslice was 50 ms, after that time 
everything you were doing got saved and the next process in line got the juice. 
There were certain things that released your timeslice, too, such as IO 
operations, etc. If you were doing disk access, and what you were working with 
got paged out of memory, you had to go get it again when your turn came around 
again. If that took too long, you went through the same thing again, and you 
might actually sit there all day and get nothing done. No wonder we worried 
about frame faulting. Ah, those were the days...

Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

 Try this in unidata:

 004 NEXT I
 005 CRT TIMEDATE()

 RQM is still supported by UniData, but it's now merely a synonym for

 both UV and UD, like the *nix sleep command, only counts in whole

 RQM was supposed to be merely a command to release quantuum which 
 means to pause until I come back up in the time-slicing round-robin.
 At some point I wonder if they didn't just replace this with a 
 Sleep 1 but that's not really what it was *supposed* to be.

UniBasic User's Guide, Release 2.1, Copyright 1991 by Unidata, Inc.

The original purpose of RQM was to release remaining execution time
reserved for a program, allowing other programs to use the time. If a
particular program was very computation-intensive, RQM could improve overall
system performance. In UniData, this command functions like the SLEEP
command. For further information, refer to the SLEEP statement later in this
chapter.

It is kind-of interesting to note the undecided way to spell Unidata/UniData
back then (or that UniData hadn't been registered yet); there are no typo's
(by me) in the above... Also note that the SLEEP page of the document makes
no mention of RQM...

REALITY by Microdata. DATA/BASIC Programming Manual, Series 3.0 - 4.0,
Release 4.0, February, 1981

The time-shared environment of the REALITY system allows concurrent
execution of several programs, with each program executing for a specific
time period (called a timeslice or quantum) and then pausing while other
programs continue execution. The RQM statement causes a one-second sleep,
terminating the program's current timeslice. The RQM statement may be used
in heavy compute loops to allow increased execution speed of other
concurrently executing programs by giving up time. It may also be used to
cause pauses.

IIRC, the 'M' was measurement; the measurement was whatever remained of
the processes timeslice.

Documentation back to UniVerse 6.3.3 makes no mention of RQM...

Re: [U2] [ud] Sub-second delay?

2012-08-29 Thread Rutherford, Marc
Additionally I would use RQM in batch loops that ran for a huge number of 
iterations, and where I was not concerned about the final completion time.  

At the end of each loop I would issue RQM would release any remaining 
time-slice - I would get my big butt out of the way.  This would allow other 
users (normally the interactive ones) to proceed.  It was a good way to 'play 
nice'.

Re: [U2] [ud] Sub-second delay?

2012-08-29 Thread Tony Gravagno
The documentation is interesting for at least two reasons.

1)
I have an R83 manual in my hands, v5 1990 that has the exact same text
as the Microdata text below, except with the words REALITY and Pick
interchanged, and one other subtlety:
REALITY: RQM statement causes a one-second sleep, terminating the
program's current timeslice.
R83: RQM statement terminates the program's current time-slice.

There's no telling which version came first without going back to
R81v1 docs. There's probably no way to tell who got the text from who,
or by what license or method. There's also no real way to know which
implementation actually did a sleep 1 or whether it really just
relinquished the Nms timeslice if there was no 'seconds' argument.
That RQM and SLEEP are documented as being equivalent only confuses
the matter more in this much ado about nearly nothing but fun
discussion.

2)
As I understand it, Unidata was conceived in a dream, and any relation
to other Pick platforms was purely coincidental - at least as
described in early lawsuits defending the originality of the platform.
(Or maybe I'm thinking of Universe?) So how could there be an
original purpose of a command that was not based on something else?
I'm sure that there is some logical reason for this and that we're not
looking at a smoking gun from 1991, but the historical significance is
intriguing.

T


From: Bob Wyatt 
 UniBasic User's Guide, Release 2.1, Copyright 1991 by Unidata, Inc.
 The original purpose of RQM was to release remaining execution time
 reserved for a program, allowing other programs to use the time.


 REALITY by Microdata. DATA/BASIC Programming Manual, Series 3.0 -
 4.0, Release 4.0, February, 1981
 
 The time-shared environment of the REALITY system allows concurrent
 execution of several programs, with each program executing for a
 specific time period (called a timeslice or quantum) and then
pausing
 while other programs continue execution. The RQM statement causes a
 one-second sleep, terminating the program's current timeslice. The
 RQM statement may be used in heavy compute loops to allow increased
 execution speed of other concurrently executing programs by giving
up
 time. It may also be used to cause pauses.

Re: [U2] Scrub Hangs Up

2012-08-29 Thread Hona, David
Is this query related to the one you posted/resolved here: 
http://listserver.u2ug.org/pipermail/u2-users/2011-July/008153.html

Same problem/solution? 

I kindly suggest that you go on a Rocket UV course to help work out how to get 
the best from UV. Plus the UV ODBC documentation is quite detailed on the use 
of HS.SCRUB. So I assume you're followed it's correct used - before you posted 
this request for help.

BTW check this out Rocket U2 Webinar coming soon:
