RE: [U2] Need help - UV intermittent roving file open error
Really? It's redimensioning in common here on UV10, aix, PICK flavour, no question about it. Exactly for the purpose of a file open subroutine used in hundreds of programs with hundreds of users... No complaints. I have even just written a test program which redims a vector in common and works. Although it seems logical not to be able to change a dimension in common, if common variables are just pointers to a memory slot then extending an array probably just means pointing to some non-sequential memory for the new dimensions (just a guess). Maybe there is some other flavour/uvconfig flag which affects this?

RE: [U2] Need help - UV intermittent roving file open error
I don't believe it - you're right! I could have sworn that using a DIM on a previously defined common array would do nothing, well I stand corrected. Maybe I'm remembering what happened under PI/Open, but it certainly does work under Universe.

Re: [U2] [UV] Continuing Long Lines
I know you are UV, but sometimes UD and UV have commonalities. Anyway, on UD we can use a pipe | as a line continuation.

RE: [U2] Encrypt issue 8088
Symeon, others, I tested every 128+ bit cipher available with Encrypt and here are the results: All the ciphers work with encoding but require the workaround (remove extra LF). None work without encoding - the decrypt side either adds a random character, or craters altogether, and Decrypted string never matches raw string.

[U2] Encrypt Algorithms
Does anyone have an opinion about which are the best encryption algorithms to use? If you have any technical doc citations this is very useful. Would you NOT use the U2 Encrypt function simply because it doesn't offer the algorithm you need (or one mandated by your client/employer)? Would you NOT use the U2 Encrypt function simply because it doesn't offer 256 or 512 bit encryption? (Only goes to 168.) Do you think a certain algorithm should be AVOIDed because it's been cracked? I've heard des3 has been cracked, but not sure which mode (cbc, cfb, or ofb) was cracked, or whether it matters. The discussion can take in other encryption methods, openssl, gpg, etc. U2 offers rc4, des3, rc2, rc5 - I'm not listing anything 128 bit. TIAA, R.

If you want to keep your data hidden from the intelligence services of a major government (eg. you work for a DOD sub-contractor), then you've got your work cut out for you.
