Re: [U2] mv.NET and U2.NET
At the risk of sounding like I'm disparaging a competing offering, here is my understanding of U2.NET. Corrections are welcome: 1) U2.NET is essentially an old version of mv.NET (a fork). A license to the source was purchased by IBM from BlueFinity. It's essentially v3.2.x (?) frozen in time. Not quite, U2.NET has it's origins in mv.NET but has since been developed on by IBM/Rocket. I understand that Initially the work focussed on making it more performant and on improving the installability of it. It is now a fully fledged Rocket product with a development path of it's own. 2) It has not progressed in sync with mv.NET to support new features like Solution Objects (code generation of strongly-typed business classes) or the new extended support for Silverlight. No license was purchased by IBM/Rocket for ongoing enhancements or fixes from BlueFinity. Again, not quite. Bluefinity don't develop U2.NET it is a Rocket product with a development path and development team of it's own. It won't develop in sync with mv.NET or with anything else, it is an independent product with it's own development path. 3) Where the same mv.NET software can be used across almost all Pick/MV platforms, U2.NET hase been restricted to operating only with U2. I really don't get this. Land Rover make aftermarket products for Land Rovers, they don't make them for Jeeps. U2 represents the overwhelming majority of the mv market, it would be perverse of them to even consider making their tools work with anything other than U2. What you will get with a Rocket product is something that is designed for and written for U2. As UniVerse and UniData move forwards so the tools move forwards with them, and vice versa. 4) I originally thought and hoped that it would be provided free to the U2 client base. I really wanted to use U2.NET as an alternative to UO.NET and mv.NET for sites where it was better suited. But to my surprise this severely and intentionally limited product (in current features and its future) is being sold to U2 sites at a price comparable to mv.NET itself.

Re: [U2] mv.NET and U2.NET
From: George Land U2.NET has it's origins in mv.NET but has since been developed on by IBM/Rocket. I understand that Initially the work focussed on making it more performant and on improving the installability of it. I didn't know about installability changes. mv.NET can be installed in a variety of configurations and over many MV environments, so the installation can be confusing. This is why we offer free installation and configuration to prospects and clients. I would really like to see a video or online webinar that shows a U2.NET installation so that I can understand how Rocket has improved the process. 2) It has not progressed in sync with mv.NET... Bluefinity don't develop U2.NET it is a Rocket product with a development path and development team of it's own. It won't develop in sync with mv.NET or with anything else, it is an independent product with it's own development path. Um, that's exactly what I said. ;) Seriously - I'm not aware of the U2.NET development path and I think Bill was wondering exactly what that path is so that he can compare it with what's been done with mv.NET since the fork. 3) Where the same mv.NET software can be used across almost all Pick/MV platforms, U2.NET hase been restricted to operating only with U2. I really don't get this. My point was that a product that works for all platforms was stripped down to work with one platform and then sold at (my understanding) the same price. Where's the value-add in that? Why wouldn't someone just get the full version that has extensive enhancements over the stripped-down version if they're going to pay the exact same price (or less)? Land Rover make aftermarket products for Land Rovers, they don't make them for Jeeps. U2 represents the overwhelming majority of the mv market, it would be perverse of them to even consider making their tools work with anything other than U2. Firestone makes tires for Jeep and Land Rover, what value (or business motivation) would there be in Land Rover rebranding a line of Firestone tires that can only be used on their vehicles - and at the same price as Firestone - especially while Firestone continues to enhance their cross-vehicle offerings? What you will get with a Rocket product is something that is designed for and written for U2. This software was not designed for and written for U2. They bought source code, cut out pieces, and rebranded it. When IBM had their name behind the software, there was a perceived it says IBM, it must be better. Now it's just Rocket. C'mon. That's not going to help anyone's marketing. So now we need to focus on technology and price, and this question about what differentiates U2.NET from other offerings is much more important. As an aside, I think the embrace and extend approach to business is a little silly. Isn't this one of the reasons why so many people dislike Microsoft? If U2 vendors want to get DBMS business from other MV providers they should encourage developers to use cross-platform tools like mv.NET simply to make migrations easier. By creating a fork of a product like this that is potentially incompatible with the cross-platform product, IBM/Rocket essentially puts up another barrier to migration. Now if IBM/Rocket rebrands a product like mv.NET and keeps it in sync with the baseline, companies eventually migrate the mv.NET code that they continue to develop, if they find that worthwhile, with very little pain. Developers like myself could also more easily offer services for either product. Perhaps I missed an opportunity by not marketing myself as a U2.NET developer. But I'm glad I didn't, as I would soon get frustrated with inability to do things with U2.NET that I can do with mv.NET. That said, hey, if anyone needs help with a new U2.NET interface, let me know. :) If you want free then you should be looking at IBM.NET (soon to be renamed), with is an ADO.NET provider with add ins for Visual Studio... Yes, perhaps that is the free offering that I was looking for. I had no idea IBM.NET was so sophisticated. Your description includes many (all?) features already in mv.NET, with different names and coding approaches. I will be interested in seeing how Rocket positions IBM.NET against U2.NET. I'm guessing the differentiator is that U2.NET makes use of session management inherited from mv.NET where this may not be available in IBM.NET? Thanks for the notes.

If someone could steer me down the right direction I would really appreciate it. We're using the latest version of UniVerse as well as a current version of eclipse. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] XLr8 + Subversion
I just spoke with Chris on the phone. But for those of you who don't know, XLr8Editor works with Subversion. In a few minutes on the phone with me, without a license, Chris checked in his source code into a Subversion project. Chris did not write any scripts or any other code. All he did was copy and paste his source from Universe to his local workspace and team it in to Subversion. This means it is that easy to have version control without spending thousands and thousands of dollars. Regards, Doug www.u2logic.com/tools.html U2 Eclipse Tool Experts BTW: Eclipse supports CVS, Perforce, Git, and Subversion as version control. -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Chris Austin Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 1:09 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] XLr8 + Subversion I just downloaded the Eclipse XLr8 plug-in and we want to setup Eclipse with Subversion.

Re: [U2] Impossible to handle big files (over 2 Gb) with Universe onPowerPC
Hi Dan. Yes, the 64BIT parameter in uvconfig is set to 1. (However, the CONFIG ALL reports 0...) Yes, the Redhat is a 32-bit version, and it's the last one. And the hardware is brand new. The problem has been certified by RocketSoftware, who suggest to change the OS to AIX-Powerpc. (Universe for AIX-PPC has newer versions than Linux-PPC) And the difficulty to distribute files is because of the Indexes. (We have pointers to the Index Files...)

Re: [U2] Impossible to handle big files (over 2 Gb) with Universe onPowerPC
After changing uvconfig you must compile it. I believe the uniadmin does this for you, but you probably have to shutdown and restart UniVerse. Check the time date stamp on .uvconmfig (the compiled version) to see if it matches. On 8/4/2010 3:46 PM, Augusto Alonso wrote: Hi Dan. Yes, the 64BIT parameter in uvconfig is set to 1.

Re: [U2] tool for converting xls spreadsheets to txt files
From: Barber, Bonnie Is there a conversion tool or utility available for converting xls spreadsheets to txt files nospamNebula-RnD.com/blog/tech/mv/2010/08/free-utils1.html (please remove the nospam 'munge') Blog Summary: Yes, there is a completely free utility on our freeware page to do exactly what you ask. I wrote it because the various other tools that people often discuss (IMO) are often inadequate. YMMV. I also discuss another (very cool) free utility that uses mv.NET to move data, though this is not required to do what you wish.

[U2] Universe 10.3 - Issues with I-Types when using subroutine calls, and the dictionary items is Alt-key
Good Day, We are in the process of upgrading from Universe 9.6 to 10.3, and we have noticed that the system performance is degraded when we use an I-Type dictionary with subroutine calls, and the item is also an alternate key. It seems that the report run about 4 or 5 times slower. Is there someone else who has encountered similar issues? Any ideas?
