RE: [U2] [UD] George wants opinions about UD on Solaris

2006-09-15 Thread John Jenkins
There is a hard limit of 256 file handles for 32-bit applications on
Solaris. As long as you bear this in mind when running a 32-bit UniData it
seems to work fine.

RE: [U2] [UD] George wants opinions about UD on Solaris

2006-09-14 Thread Baker Hughes
Hey,

George S. asked for input about how good a development platform UD on a
Sun Sparc is.

I like that platform myself.  I would think its a little better,
economically, than say an RS6000 these days, but I haven't compared of
late.  I would for sure take UniData or UniVerse on Solaris before I
deployed on wIndoze, much more stable (is it NOT(PC) to say
this?)[...sorry for the dbl pun.] Perhaps, if a windoze shop is more
familiar with NT style admin and printing and not wanting to learn *nix
tools for this, UV on Win is a good fit, if it will make them consider
an MV db.

What does anyone else have to say?

I know Pick Professionals in St Louis use the Solaris platform quite a
bit, although now also a certified MS shop.  They might be contacted
www.pickpro.com for their take on the question (no royalties rec'd for
plug.)

How about a bad data record?  If I was the one running this, I'd be
putting in a number of DISPLAY statements at key points, like a before
and after message on statements like WRITEs or CALLs.  Probably on
READs, too, ensuring you show the record key in the before message.
Then let it rip!  If you put the displays in correctly, you should be
able to pin down where in your program you're hitting your bump in the
road. I use things like POINT 1, KEY=xxx and POINT 1, EXIT  You
just increment the 1 for each pair.  Be sure to keep in mind when you
complete a loop that you may not get to your EXIT message.

This happens in 2 different programs.  Straight compile and local
catalog, no options with DEBUG statements embedded in the code.  Then
the program is executed, processing stops when it hits the debug, I step
through the program until I get to where I want to it continue and hit C
to continue.  Sometimes it is am immediate dump, sometimes a few seconds
later.  If I am only working with a small list of items, then it does
not happen.  If I have selected the whole file it does.  I do not use
RAID to run the program.  In one program the indices are turned off when
I am debugging it.  The other program just reads the records in the file
and does calculations on the data as it is verifying the conversion
data.

The first program builds the data in the DF files, reads and writes.
The second does a sort select of one of the files, then readnext loops.

   Does  the  process continue through a program where the source file
is
   pointing to the object file ... like the DF algorithm ... the
debugger
   could  maybe  be trying to display or traverse binary where it
expects
   source?  Or  through a program compiled with source symbols
suppressed
   or  raid  suppression  on  or  source  code removed?? Just some
random
   thoughts.
