[U2] U2 Web Designer - New Module Redback Object
I have never built a new module with web DE and I am having troubles. I went to VOC APP.IDS and added TA (Time and Attendance). When I fire up U2 Web DE, TA now appears as a module. Cool. Shooting in the dark, I build the following 3 DIR files: TACLASSES TADRIVERS TAOBJECTS and set the permissions on those DIRs as needed. This was done because the other two modules each have 3 similar DIR files. How do I build a new object in Web DE? If I right-click on the TA module, then New, then Redback Object, it gives me the following error: Server Error Status= -1, Error=Error in ReplyParser: null argument. Am I missing something simple, or not even close? John ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
[U2] Database time question
Running unidata on hpux11.11i I have two databases in unidata that I would like to operate at different time zones. Lets say my Midvale database is set to mountain standard, USA which is also the base unix kernal time. I have an account called Austrailia, I would like it to run on australian time. Any ideas on making a unidata database independant of the unix kernal time. Thank You Robert Frailey Manager Information Systems Utah Medical Products Inc.

[U2] Universal COMO
By default, Universe will create several files in each account you create. Like SAVEDLISTS, and ED... one of these default files is COMO which is where you can stick session logs. We use this constantly to monitor the output of phantoms, for review and debugging the next day. The logs are emailed to myself and some other programmers here. By altering the VOC entries in the accounts, we could have a central, universal COMO for all accounts, instead of one for each account. I see a *pro* in this, for the ease of cleaning up old logs from years ago, obviously no longer needed, which can be done from the O/S level. What might be a *con* ?

Re: [U2] Universal COMO
Depending on the naming convention used, you might step on another COMO that you wish to preserve. Add the account name to the COMO name to avoid this (or something like that). Permissions could be an issue depending on your set up. However, with a bit of thought, this could be very useful. One-stop shopping.

Re: [U2] Universal COMO
Ahh. In that case, my guess is directories as temporaries with time-outs means you have certain log directories in *nix that are cleaned up based on date. This is typically done with a cronjob that uses find and simply removes old logs at a preset time (usually in the wee hours of the morning). Here is a find command to purge vsifax outbound faxes over 7 days old. find /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} \; I believe that command added to the cron to run everyday at 1am would define /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax as temporary with time-outs. 1 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} \; #Clears vsifax report files and faxes older than 7 days -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of wjhon...@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 3:37 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Universal COMO To be more clear declare certain directories as temporaries with time-outs. -Original Message- From: Dan Ell d...@jbase.com To: U2 Users List u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Wed, Jan 23, 2013 11:27 am Subject: Re: [U2] Universal COMO According to Google this has several meanings: Pronoun Used to identify a specific person or thing close at hand or being indicated or experienced: is this your bag?.

Re: [U2] Universe and ADO connections
[AD] Mike, in response to your question: mv.NET has an ADO.NET-compliant provider called Adapter Objects. It exposes the MV environment as tables, rows, columns, and stored procedures for all CRUD, rather than files, items, attributes, and BASIC programs, respectively. So the ADO.NET developer gets what she/he needs without being a Pick expert. The queries to U2 are pseudo-SQL, rather than being something like SQL-92 compliant. The idea here is that the MV developer(s) collaborate with the .NET developer(s) to craft queries with Where, and OrderBy clauses, where we would normally use WITH and BY. For anything more complex the best approach is to expose a BASIC subroutine as a stored proc, and accept parameters. mv.NET includes Adapter Objects to help keep non-Pick people happy, but also included is Core Objects, which is more of a Pick-like interface. This is a super-set of UO.NET. mv.NET uses UO.NET as a basic lower-level transport and wraps round it a more powerful set of functionality. If you already abstract your UI from the middle-tier and the data (Business Access Layer=BAL, Data Access Layer=DAL...) then replacing existing code should not be a challenge. mv.NET also includes Solution Objects, which generates strongly typed classes - completely abstracting you away from database queries. This will be familiar to those who know NHibernate, CSLA, the .NET Entity Framework, and other ORM tools. You generate collection classes like Customers which encapsulate instances of Customer, and those might have methods like .Save or .UpdateSalesRep. So the mechanics of data access are eliminated and the classes are usable by anyone independent of their experience with RDBMS or Pick. There are also built-in facilities for session pooling, Web Services, Silverlight, and other common requirements. Please feel free to contact me for more information, including mentoring and other services to help with the conversion.

Tony, As we already have working models, the concern would be things like use of connection (session) pooling licenses, the ability to return datasets directly from Universe (we use SQLDirect) and overall performance.

Here is a find command to purge vsifax outbound faxes over 7 days old. find /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} \; I believe that command added to the cron to run everyday at 1am would define /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax as temporary with time-outs. 1 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /usr/vsifax3/faxq/vsifax -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} \; #Clears vsifax report files and faxes older than 7 days -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of wjhon...@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 3:37 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Universal COMO To be more clear declare certain directories as temporaries with time-outs. -Original Message- From: Dan Ell d...@jbase.com To: U2 Users List u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Wed, Jan 23, 2013 11:27 am Subject: Re: [U2] Universal COMO According to Google this has several meanings: Pronoun Used to identify a specific person or thing close at hand or being indicated or experienced: is this your bag?.

Re: [U2] Universal COMO
Hi Will, I think the biggest *con* you might come up against will be concurrency issues with multiple processes writing to the one central location. If you had a solution where each session log is unique amongst all processes then that would work very well. You will still need to clean it out though whether it be one big centralised dir or one for each account. As others have indicated, and if you run a unix box, then an overnight cron job to find and clean out any COMO dirs older than a set number of days would an option for you. I would suggest that you identify any logs that were important historically to you and roll them first. Probably zipping them up and moving them to an archive area would be viable. Google may even cough up a log rotate script that you could adapt.

Re: [U2] Universal COMO
In UniData (on Windows) this is pretty simple. First you create an environment variable for the como file (e.g. MY_COMO) that points to the directory under which you've created a _PH_ directory and a D__PH_ dictionary file. Then you create a VOC item as follows: _PH_ 001 DIR 002 @MY_COMO\_PH_ 003 @MY_COMP\D__PH_ ...to include in every account's VOC file. This will now act as a centralized como repository. I do this with the _HOLD_ directory, as everyone on our machines share the same spooler file, and each spooler file name is a unique .txt file. I'm sure it would be even easier on a nix machine. :-) Bill - Original Message - *From:* peter.che...@firstmac.com.au *To:* U2 Users List u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org *Date:* 1/23/2013 6:31 PM *Subject:* Re: [U2] Universal COMO Hi Will, I think the biggest *con* you might come up against will be concurrency issues with multiple processes writing to the one central location.

[U2] Help with REVISE (AKA ENTRO/ENTROC)
Apparently somewhere through the years, my brain has dropped a few bits about using REVISE. In a multivalue association on screen 2 (or 3, 4, etc.), you can delete a row by selecting the row, choosing the first field, and entering ##. No problem. I *thought* to insert a row, you selected a row, chose the first field, and entered a . But when I do that, I get Line 0 has not been defined. Can someone please tell me what I've mis-remembered? How do you insert a value (not add to the end, it has to be inserted between two exiting values) in REVISE/ENTRO? Your help will be greatly appreciated! Regards, Clif -- W.

[U2] SB+ screen translation problem
Hi SB+ Gurus, I have an interesting problem with a screen translation that I hope someone can help me with. That is, it is a sub-screen that will not work. This is working fine in production but when I make a change to the screen in development or test it will not create a working Spanish version of the screen. I have cleared the NETDRIVERS file many times but it still aborts when it tries to call the subscreen for a Mexico user with language set to Spanish.If I change the user from Spanish to English it works fine. It just won't work for the Spanish version of the screen. Has anyone had this problems before? If so, what to do to fix it?
