ODBC Universe (Unix) to MS Access
Evening all, I want to be able to write and read an Access database on the LAN, from UniVerse 10.0.16 HP-UX 11i. Ray Daignault's comment about this in the archives (2001) is that a Unix ODBC driver and Driver Manager are required. Does anyone have any opinions on what drivers are better/worse than others ? I am getting info from easysoft and openlink - anyone else worth talking to ?

RE: [UV] Problem reactivating select list
Hi John, I think the problem you are seeing is a result of the EXECUTE command being executed in a separate shell or workspace. It can't see your select list. There are a couple of ways around this, use the PASSLIST keyword in the EXECUTE command (that is for ideal flavour, your mileage may vary according to your own flavour. It is all documented in the manual 8-)) or use a SAVE-LIST and then use the DATA statement to stack a GET-LIST command before you execute your ED statement.

RE: Calling UniData subroutines via OLEDB
Steven, Sorry I don't know this for UniData, but I posting just in case it may use similar techniques to those under UniVerse. On UniVerse you can use the CALL statement (that's CALL as in SQL CALL not a BASIC CALL) CALL subroutine(Args) MyCmd.Text = 'CALL MySub(1)' (NOTE : This is considered by ADO to be an SQL command, not a stored procedure). This returns either: A) any printed output as a single column named 'PRINTED OUTPUT', or B) you can execute native uvSQL commands using SQLExecDirect and capture the result into a system variable named @HSTMT. This then passes the results back as an ADO RowSet.

RE: [UV] Problem reactivating select list
John, Why write a wrapper? ED is a scrudgy BASIC program - (uv Account BP ED.B). You could just modify that.

Here's the problem: No matter what I do, I can't get ED to recognize an active select list that is activated within the wrapper program. I use READLIST ITEMS at the beginning to get the list of items to write to the temp file, then SELECTN ITEMS TO 0 prior to executing ED. I also tried writing the list to SAVEDLISTS and executing GET.LIST :TEMP.LIST prior to executing ED, but got the same result. These two test programs illustrate the problem: BP TEST.READLIST 0001: READLIST ITEMS ELSE ITEMS = '' 0002: PRINT 'CONTENTS OF ITEMS=':ITEMS 0003: SELECTN ITEMS TO 0 0004: EXECUTE 'RUN BP TEST.READLIST2' 0005: LOOP 0006: READNEXT ITEM ELSE EXIT 0007: PRINT 'READNEXT ITEM=':ITEM 0008: REPEAT 0009: END BP TEST.READLIST2 0001: READLIST ITEMS ELSE ITEMS = '' 0002: PRINT 'CONTENTS OF ITEMS=':ITEMS 0003: END Output: SELECT BP SAMPLE 10 10 record(s) selected to SELECT list #0.

David, Looking in DataDirect history from their web site at page : http://www.datadirect.com/aboutus/history/index.ssp shows that the company is still an independant company, and has not been purchased by Progress Software. Though, as quoted in their Strategic Partnership at page : http://www.datadirect.com/aboutus/strategicpart/index.ssp they demonstrate that many database and database management solutions vendors such as Progress Software and IBM (for Websphere and Websphere MQ) are embedding the DataDirect products into their products. The interesting point is that they are the ONLY licensed by Microsoft to have access to the source code and developments Microsoft does around ODBC, so they can port to UNIX and Linux the ODBC drivers developped by Microsoft.

Re: ODBC Universe (Unix) to MS Access
To get BCI working from HP-UX 11.00 we had to use the Easysoft ODBC-ODBC Bridge, as it was too hard finding and compiling all the necessary parts as 64 bit. It's good software from good guys at a good price (~$1500 US), but it might be overkill for your situation. You could also write a client-side program (VB/Java) that reads the Access database through ODBC/JDBC and writes to UV thru UniObjects. (Okay, it could be server-side also, but you'd have to shell execute / cron it.)

RE: [UV] Problem reactivating select list[Scanned]
We've used alternate indexes to do trigger type processing since 1990. In our case, we do it to handle two situations: 1. Track the records that have changed to handle secondary key updates for files where the secondary data isn't really in the file. We have a master person file for our police application. Rather than select the persons with a specific name and then look for the crime records for that person, we keep the person names in an attribute in the crime report records. Note, we did efficiency analysis on PI rev 7 to determine which made the most sense. I'm not sure if it would make as much sense now but it was significantly faster back then to handle it this way. 2. Track the records that have changed to handle updates of other databases. We have GIS applications that use other databases. These databases are updated at night from our main Universe system based on what records have changed during the day. My late co-worker, Rob Fisher, and I used stuff from several sources including Gyle Iverson and Lee Leitner to flesh out this idea. We even wrote our own paper on it way back in 1991.

RE: [UV] Problem reactivating select list
Triggers would be nice, but the'd have to work on type19 files. Modifying ED is simple, but you might want to wrap other verbs, so generalized wrapper pgm is good. Protect the vanilla versions of ED, DELETE, UPDATE.RECORD, REVISE as 'remote-controlled' R-items that will only execute if executed by wrapper. In wrapper, just capture/save the active select list, then reuse it 3 times: (1st) to capture the before version of all records, (2nd) to do ED, UPDATE.RECORD, REVISE, DELETE, or whatever else you are wrapping, then (3rd) to compare the before after versions. How to capture reactiveate the list is up to you, but I guess that's the root of the question, isn't it? The flavors handle list variables differently: getlist, savelist, formlist, passlist, etc. $OPTIONS IDEAL makes pgm conform to documentation. Pick flavor is poorly documented (in my exalted opinion). There is a config option for PERFORM EXECUTE. The following silly example uses methods that do essentially what you need, (uv 10.0, pick flavor account): CT CDS.BP HESTER HESTER 0001 $OPTIONS -VAR.SELECT ;* (I like ideal behavior, not Pick) 0002 READLIST LIST FROM 0 ELSE LIST = something from command line? 0003 FORMLIST LIST TO 0 0004 DATA 'Y' 0005 PERFORM 'COPYI FROM VOC TO VOCLIB' 0006 FORMLIST LIST TO 0 0007 PERFORM 'ED VOC' 0008 LOOP 0009 REMOVE ID FROM LIST SETTING MORE 0010 CRT ID, 'compare old to new...' 0011 WHILE MORE 0012 REPEAT 0013END SELECT VOC SAMPLE 10 record(s) selected to SELECT list #0.

RE: XML and U2
Hi Rob -- It is the rare table, indeed, that is created with a sql CREATE TABLE statement in a U2 database. U2 has SQL as a second language. It is not really an RDBMS, but uses a data model very similar to the one used by XML (a tree or di-graph structure). With the CREATE-FILE command a file gets created and then when a dictionary is populated, it is descriptive of the data (so not quite the same as an RDBMS that way) and can include sub-fields. The database comes pre-loaded with functions on multi-values and multi-valued sub-values and users write similar functions to lower levels if needed. Let me know if that doesn't quite answer the question. Thanks. --dawn Dawn M.

Re: [UV] Problem reactivating select list
Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions. Turns out the solution was relatively simple. I just needed to use PERFORM ED instead of EXECUTE ED to make ED run in the wrapper program's workspace. This is in PICK flavor. Seems like I once knew the difference between EXECUTE and PERFORM in PICK flavor, but I forgot. Reading through all the posts jogged my memory. To answer some of the questions as to why I chose this particular route: I prefer to never copy and modify the system utilities themselves because I'm then relegated to that version of the tool and miss out on any fixes/enhancements in later UV releases. There's also the possibility that the current version won't work correctly in later releases. I'd rather not have the ongoing maintenance and overhead of adding triggers to every file in the database (and can't in UV 9.6 anyway). Also one of the main benefits of the audit trail is capturing changes to BPs and procs that reside in type 19 files. As to the issue of people finding loopholes in ED to get around the auditing, that's not really a big concern. We have good people here and this is more of a tool to assist them rather than being big brother. If someone has to quickly fix some data on the fly and they fail to document it, now they have automatic documentation to fall back on.

UNCLASSIFIED Performance tuning UV on Windows2003
Folks, I notice that when I do two concurrent processes (like ANALYZE.FILE from one window and SELECT from another window) on the same large (3GB,64-bit) file, the 'Pages/sec' count in Win2K3 goes through the roof, even though the 'memory commit charge' is only 176MB out of 2465MB. Maybe the 'Pages/sec' count is not measuring what I expect it to, but it seems odd to me for the system to be paging (i.e. swapping program code segments in and out of memory) in this situation. I'd except the disk system to be getting a thrashing as the two processes want to read different bits of the same file, but not paging. Can anyone tell me 1) Do I understand correctly what is happening? If not, what _is_ going on? 2) Are there any UV configuration tunables which could improve the situation? If so, which one(s)? 3) Are there any Windows configuration tunables which could improve the situation? If so, which one(s)? Oh, it's UV 10.0.15, but I don't think that's terribly relevant Thanks Mike The information contained in this Internet Email message is intended for the addressee only and may contain privileged information, but not necessarily the official views or opinions of the New Zealand Defence Force.

RE: D3 - Universe
Barry Brooks asked: I have a client who is running D3 and Universe on seperate servers. They wish to be able to directly access D3 files from Universe. Does anyone know the best (or any) way to do this. D3 and Universe are running on Linux Redhat 9. Ross Suggested: You MIGHT be able to use ODBC from UV, but ODBC with D3 has never been great - depending on volumes, there is always OSFI (on D3) being mapped to a UV type 19 file ? Sorry Ross, that won't work because the D3 ODBC client driver is Win32 only. Barry said he's running on Linux. Although he CAN create some code in a Win32 middle-tier and use that as a hub between the Linux boxes. Chuck suggested: Set up the D3 files you need to access as FSI (external file format) and point to them from UniVerse (SAMBA, VisionFS, or file mapping) as Type 19. No... FSI doesn't work like that, FSI files are still mini blobs unto themselves. And here too, there is no FSI over Linux. Barry - there are a few ways to do this, one of which might be to use CallHTTP (or another HTTP call) from Universe and FlashCONNECT or a home-grown HTTP interface with D3. The solution will depend on how transparent or tightly integrated you want these environments to be. If you want a READ in UV to read a record in D3 then some creative coding is required, but it's possible. I'll be happy to discuss solutions with you for free but some coding/services will be required to make this happen. Tony [EMAIL PROTECTED] Former DBMS Product Manager, Raining Data, including D3.

RE: D3 - Universe
If all you want is to do is Access queries, then you can build the query, then pass it to D3 through a combination of rlogin and d3tcl. That's a little cludgy. Or, again, you can go through a Win32 middle-tier. The results can be returned to Universe through stdout or captured into a variable for processing. For large reports coming back, this will be an issue and some code will need to be built around the request to page the data back to Universe. If you want to do this sort of thing on your own, then AccuTerm scripting can be used to do the data exchanges. The AccuTerm session doesn't need to be on the same desktop as the user, and in fact you can have one system doing the connectivity for many users. This isn't elegant either, but a lot of people like using familiar tools. If you want a more elegant solution, then more coding is required.
