[U2] (UV) - Is VLIST in version 10.2 fragile?

Hi there, We have just upgraded both Universe and System Builder, going from UV 10.1.8 to 10.2.0 and from SB+ 3.4 to 5.4. Because the SB+ common block changed slightly, I had to recompile all programs that referenced it. However, I have discovered that not all the source code was on the

Ray, what version of uodotnet.dll has an Error property on UniSession? I'm running v2.1.1.7211 and I don't see it. Would be useful, though. Regards, Steve On 4/18/07, Ray Wurlod [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: They are usually accessible via the Error property on the Session object. --- u2-users

Re: [U2] [UV] Question about EQU

I'm a little confused where dictionaries come into play with compiled versus interpreted programs. I've worked on interpretive basic system and dictionaries don't have anything to do with it. Unless it's a 3rd form of programming, ie parameter driven. Thanks Mark Johnson - Original Message
