[U2] PhantomID, Unidata on Solaris
Hi, is there a nice way to capture the process ID for a phantom process? I would like to get the name of the file created in the _PH_ catalog when I start the phantom. TIA Bjvrn Eklund --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Re: [U2] UNIDATA - SAVING UNIQUE and LIST.ALGEBRA
I believe the SAVING UNIQUE operating on a multivalued field treats the request as a BY.EXP request...thus giving you the value marks. You might want to try BSELECT to get just the individual keys: SELECT PERSON.ST 3152749 BSELECT PERSON.ST PST.ROOM.ASSIGNMENTS SAVE.LIST X.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 8/23/2004 3:26:54 PM Hi all, Not a regular here but I was hoping someone could enlighten me with this interesting 'feature' of UNIDATA... If I issue a select statement using saving unique on a mv field of pointers, then edit the SAVEDLISTS file to check the IDs, I see something like this... SELECT PERSON.ST 3152749 SAVING UNIQUE PST.ROOM.ASSIGNMENTS SAVE.LIST X.1 AE SAVEDLISTS X.1000 001: 8654y1y1 002: 9490y2y1 003: 9491y3y1 (where 'y' is the value marker) Why is there y1y1, y2y1, y3y1 appended at the end of each ID? I'm guessing it has to do with the saving unique feature or something? To continue with the issue... SELECT PERSON.ST 3152750 SAVING UNIQUE PST.ROOM.ASSIGNMENTS SAVE.LIST X.2 001: 1443y1y1 002: 2904y2y1 003: 5128y3y1 004: 6743y4y1 LIST.ALGEBRA X.3 = X.1 + X.2 the system returns: SIZE OF X.1 IS 3 SIZE OF X.2 IS 4 SIZE OF X.3 IS 7 result is stored in 'X.3' GET.LIST X.3 21 records retrieved to list 0.

Re: [U2] UNIDATA - SAVING UNIQUE and LIST.ALGEBRA
Yeah, the BSELECT works, I'm using it as an alternative... I just like to ensure to remove duplicates too which is why I was using SAVING UNIQUE. I was just wondering why the value marks... And the thing is that its only when using LIST.ALGEBRA that I found a problem with this. If you just do a plain LIST on the table from the active select list you don't get this problem when using SAVING UNIQUE. ps/ Another way to get rid of the value marks is to do the following...

[U2] [UV] File Types...
I'm now working some with UniVerse - the mystical side of the U2 family... I never knew how easy we have it in UniData!! I can say SELECT FILE WITH A = [AAA] and will find AAA whether at the start, middle or end... That LIKE ...AAA... won't do the same - you have to have 3 LIKES to (AAA..., ...AAA..., ...AAA) to do the same it appears... COPY is really wicked - and don't start me on the editor - at least this version of UV has a beta AE, otherwise I'd be seriously lost!! But that's not what I'm here for I've just gone through two different UV documents - both of which tell me I need to choose a type from 2 to 18 for a Hashed File, but neither tells me WHAT 2 through 18 do or why I need to choose one or the other of those 17 types... I need to create a small (5 record) code file -- each record will be 50 bytes max. It doesn't really matter what type I choose, really, but I thought this would be a good time to learn the UV 'File Types' - but I can't find where they are documented!! Been through: Administering UniVerse, Version 10.1 (G251-1905-00) UniVerse System Description V 10.1 (G251-1927-00) These are some seriously big books to never even touch what the different types do or mean!!

RE: [U2] DIR Function
Hi Al, Are you getting a Unidata error message? If so, which one? There's the UniBasic DIR function and the Windows-level dir command, which work quite differently. The UniBasic DIR function works file-by-file, so it expects you to specify the full path to _HOLD_ and the hold file name. Simon from tcosoftware posted this great code snippet on July 29th: For a Unidata specific version of this use FILEINFO() and DIR() ie: OPEN _HOLD_ TO fp ELSE xxx FILE.PATH=FILEINFO(fp,2):/:HOLD.ITEM ;* forward slash is OK on NT DATE.MODIFIED=DIR(FILE.PATH)2 I just got Simon's example to work beautifully with _HOLD_ on UD 5.1 on Unix. Although his comment says the forward slash is OK on NT, you may need to change the forward slash in the FILE.PATH= line to a backslash \. Otherwise, I'll bet you'll have both kinds of slashes in your full path, which might give indigestion to the DIR function. From TCL, HELP DIR has more info and another helpful example. I think Wendy's referring to the Windows-level dir command, which you could use to retrieve the file names of all the hold entries in _HOLD_. Again, you'll need to specify the full path which is returned by the FILEINFO( ) function, or find it in attribute 2 of VOC _HOLD_. From a Windows command prompt, dir /? | more will describe all the options. Hope this helps, Tom [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/23/04 7:23 PM Al DeWitt [How to find] the Date Modified of a W2K UniData file. Folks responded to use the DIR command. It worked great except it won't work for files in the _HOLD_ folder. snip I don't recall the original thread so I may be off base, but if you're just looking for the last modified file within _HOLD_, you can use switches with DIR to sort the files. DIR /OD will give you all the files in date order, oldest first. Look at the date of the last file listed, and that's the equivalent of when the _HOLD_ file was modified. HELP DIR for more info, you can reverse the order, for example. - This e-mail and any attachments may contain CONFIDENTIAL information, including PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION.

Re: [U2] [UV] The Learning Curve Continues!!
1) Quotes work fine with LIKE. Try LIST VOC WITH @ID LIKE ...X... to see the result. 2) File Types and reasons for them (2 through 8) - easiest way to get quick list of the intent of each file type is to type CREATE.FILE XXX and type ? for help at the File Type prompt. 3) EVERY is listed in the VOC as a K-type, meaning it is a keyword. If you type HELP EVERY at TCL, you do get a help entry for this keyword.

RE: [U2] Accuterm Email
Note that using MS Outlook 2003 this may not work. Microsoft has secured the ability of using scripts or the MS outlook objects to blindly send emails form a client's PC. It WILL prompt the user that a 3rd party application is attempting to use Outlook and if the program is reading the address book at all. The user needs to click a Yes on the message box to allow the email to be sent. It's nice that MS is finally clamping down on security issues such as these, but it makes our lives a little harder.

RE: [U2] Clearing a Sequential File:
There are a number of approaches to this. If you're on a *nix platform, you could rm and touch the file you want and that'll create the null file. On Windows you can do a similar thing, but of course the OS verbs are different. I use a cross-platform approach that doesn't use OS verbs at all. First, open the directory file as a regular file. Use DELETE to remove the old item. Then, when writing to the file, on the first output just WRITE it to the DIR file under the sequential name. Then open the sequential item and WRITESEQ to it thereafter. This is a bit more complicated than other approaches, but if you WRITE '' ON dirfile,name at the start (which is the most common variant of the technique) you'll get a blank first line.

READ and WRITE will still work with all chars. The problem you would have would be that you will not be able to access any of the data via dynamic record methods. In other words, instead of saying REC5,1 which would access the 1st value of attr 5, you'll need to find the length of the record and proceed byte by byte looking for a byte or bit sequence that will indicate you've found the end of a field and then pull that out with REC[STARTING.BYTE,NUMBER.OF.BYTES.TO.PULL] or something like that.

RE: [U2] Clearing a Sequential File:
I tested the WEOFSEQ on UD6 and it works real well, but I seem to remember on earlier versions of Unidata you had to have the record there before you could OPENSEQ. Or perhaps this was UV? I just tested this and on my UD6 you can OPENSEQ a non-existant item and it creates the new record, so you wouldn't have to go through all these hoops if you're UD6. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Moore Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 1:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] Clearing a Sequential File: Thanks for the idea, Kevin.

If you're on a *nix platform, you could rm and touch the file you want and that'll create the null file. On Windows you can do a similar thing, but of course the OS verbs are different. I use a cross-platform approach that doesn't use OS verbs at all. First, open the directory file as a regular file. Use DELETE to remove the old item. Then, when writing to the file, on the first output just WRITE it to the DIR file under the sequential name. Then open the sequential item and WRITESEQ to it thereafter. This is a bit more complicated than other approaches, but if you WRITE '' ON dirfile,name at the start (which is the most common variant of the technique) you'll get a blank first line. If you don't mind that blank first line, then that may be an easier way to go. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Moore Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 11:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [U2] Clearing a Sequential File: I am able to OPENSEQ and WRITESEQ for a sequential file, and need to clear the records or data before writing to this file.

Re: [U2] [UV] File Types...
David, I'm now working some with UniVerse - the mystical side of the U2 family... I never knew how easy we have it in UniData!! I can say SELECT FILE WITH A = [AAA] and will find AAA whether at the start, middle or end... That LIKE ...AAA... won't do the same - you have to have 3 LIKES to (AAA..., ...AAA..., ...AAA) to do the same it appears... COPY is really wicked - and don't start me on the editor - at least this version of UV has a beta AE, otherwise I'd be seriously lost!! The [X] syntax works as you'd expect in Reality flavoured accounts. Craig --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
Re: [U2] Data Security
Robert, UniVerse 10.x has a base64 encoding/decoding function built in. And OCONV code MX0C will convert to a hex string (faster but less space efficient). If you are careful in how you read the data in the first place and you then encode it before writing it should be no different to any other binary data.

RE: [U2] [ud] UniObjects Dynamic Array Type Mismatch only in .ex e
I don't think ours suffered from speed issues. It was so long ago and we did what we had to to keep the project alive. The problem you had arises from accessing a dynamic array value more than once in a statement. If you are in your application's infancy, you can use local variable. Instead of: dynarray1.value(1,1) = dynarray1.value(1,1) + dynarray2.value(1,3) use: var1 = dynarray1.value(1,1) var2 = dynarray2.value(1,3) dynarray1.value(1,1) = var1 + var2 Then you can keep the non-pcode version and control of the compilation optimisation.

You need the single quote if you have something that has a space in it otherwise you don't. I suspect this was the problem David was having Regards David Jordan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Darlaston Sent: Wednesday, 25 August 2004 1:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] [UV] File Types... You don't need quotes, either single or double. Just use SELECT FILE WITH A LIKE ...AAA... I prefer LIKE to [AAA] because you can also do things like SELECT FILE WITH A LIKE ...AAA...BBB... and get all records with AAA followed be some unspecified characters followed by BBB anywhere in field A.
