callFTP?
Anyone know if there's been talk about a callFTP function? That would be nice to have. Currently we're executing unix commands to ftp files around. But parsing the output to determine whether or not the transfer was successful seems a bit hap-hazard to me. If anyone would care to share their ftp tricks and tips, I'd greatly appreciate it.

RE: Database decoupling (Was: Future of U2)
Well no, not really. I was thinking more in the line of New application development that would like to provide the ability to utilize modern Internet protocols. A web presence would be included in that - but was actually furthest from my mind. B2B interaction for example. Or even internal application integration. Being able to publish web services etc. etc. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 11:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Database decoupling (Was: Future of U2) In a message dated 4/15/2004 4:37:24 AM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Without this ability, I see no reason why anyone would commence new application development on the U2 platform.

RE: Database decoupling (Was: Future of U2)
With Database decoupling, the U2 platform basically becomes an application server. What would be REALLY cool, is if the U2 application server provided the same functionality as Tomcat, for example. This would allow Http requests to be sent to the U2 server for a response. Allow it to act as a Soap server, etc. etc. etc. Without this ability, I see no reason why anyone would commence new application development on the U2 platform. Since you will always require another application server (Websphere, Tomcat, Bea, Jboss, etc.) to talk to the U2 server, that would in-turn interact with the database. Now, I know IBM are not going to start re-inventing the wheel. I believe this could be fairly easily accomplished (who am I kidding) by embedding some lite form of webSphere in the U2 environment. Or creating a U2 pluggin for webSphere. Just a thought.. Mark. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
RE: UOJ - UniSession Timeout

But it doesn't seem to have any effect. Dave Meeks posted in April'02 suggesting setTimeout(), so I assume it was working then. No telling whether IBM broke it after that, though! Have you tested it outside your webapp? Check, and possibly increase, the timeout in the /usr/unishared/unirpc/unirpcservices file. http://www.indexinfocus.com/dl/u2list/200204/29998.html http://www.indexinfocus.com/dl/u2list/200110/21548.html What about trying the latest and greatest UOJ code, I don't *think* there were enough changes to cause the newest version to not work against an old version of U2. It comes with the Personal Edition if you don't have a newer version of U2 around. I discarded connection pooling very early on in favor of a simple Factory class. It's just not that hard to create a new session compared with all the trouble of keeping them alive and hanging around. So I'd take a hard look at whether connection pooling really is worth it for your app. (See http://www.pickwiki.com for UniSessionFactory.) -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
UOJ - UniSession Timeout
We are running UV 9.4. And I am hoping that is the cause of my problem I have developed a connection pooling mechanism for our Java apps. Pretty standard stuff (java wise). Just a bunch of UniSession objects in a Stack. When the application fires up, it logs in 10 sessions and pushes them on the stack. The problem I'm seeing is that after less than 30 seconds they all 'expire'. I've tried using the UniSession setTimeout() method. But it doesn't seem to have any effect. Has any one else experienced anything like this. It may well be that I'm on 9.4, and a lot has changed with the RPC side of things. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

RE: UOJ - UniSession Timeout
Follow up: It turns out, if I leave 'them' alone. i.e. Don't run PORT.STATUS, everything is fine. It's as though PORT.STATUS triggers some kind of clean up. I can live with that. But if anyone can give some insight into what PORT.STATUS may be doing behind the scenes I'd be curious to hear about it.

RE: callHTTP
In the past, I have avoided short comings of callHTTP by sending the request to my own java servlet - which in turn uses the power of Java to send the final request on to the vendor.

RE: Writing a RPC Service
I use UOJ Not sure if the same approach can be done with Uniobjects. But an idea that jumps to mind is to provide your developers with a suite of classes other than the Uniobjects. In other words, put an abstract layer around uniobjects that provides just the functionality you are going to allow. Now, the only way you can prevent developers from utilizing the actual uniobjects is to perform some kind of code review, since anyone can get their hands on them. -Original Message- From: Michael McRae [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 1:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Writing a RPC Service A customer has asked how he could implement some stringent security on the 'unirpc' services. In particular, he wants to only allow certain 'Requests' (like the 'Subroutine' method, etc.) from any users out there writing UniVerse Objects front-ends. To me, this means he wants unirpc to fire off uvserver when requested by UniObjects, but to have uvserver only forward on his allowed Methods (and no other). This would keep developers from writing code that could .Read, .Write, .Delete, etc, and force them to obey his security standards. 1) The first option I can think is to 'intercept' the uvserver executable. Has anyone any experience with writing their own Services for unirpc? 2) Next, how about distributing a cut-down version of the DLL (or is it OCX?) that his users will bind into their app?

RE: How to Add Triggers on Dicts
Well.. It wouldn't surprise me if the CREATE TRIGGER command doesn't recognize the 'DICT' keyword. Triggers generally deal with data updates. I guess you could create a dummy file pointer that points to the dictionary as though it were a data file. Then reference that pointer when creating the trigger. BUT - I haven't tried it. Not sure I would try it. Good luck! -Original Message- From: Dennis Bartlett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2004 9:20 AM To: 'U2 Users Discussion List' Subject: RE: How to Add Triggers on Dicts The trigger is currently working fine on DATA files.
