RE: How to Add Triggers on Dicts
ED VOC DICT.IN.MASTER 0001: F 0002: E:\accounts\_source.DEV\D_IN.MASTER 0003: E:\accounts\_source.DEV\D_IN.MASTER Conceptually, I don't see anything wrong with what you are doing. This VOC pointer seems to be all right. The work I was on UNIX running 10.1... I don't have a Windows system handy at the moment, so I can't give you're scenario a try. Ran this CREATE TRIGGER AUDIT_DICT AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON DICT.IN.MASTER FOR EACH ROW CALLING 'RC.DATA.TRIGGER Looks good. Adding trigger AUDIT_DICT UniVerse/SQL: Unable to open E:\accounts\_source.DEV\D_IN.MASTER/DICT.IN.MASTER. UniVerse/SQL: Could not add trigger AUDIT_DICT. No idea why the system is trying to open E:\accounts\_source.DEV\D_IN.MASTER/DICT.IN.MASTER. The error is correct in stating that this path does not exists. But, I have no clue why the system would concatenate the VOC ITEM name -- DICT.IN.MASTER -- to the path name in attribute 2 -- E:\accounts\_source.DEV\D_IN.MASTER -- to derive the path of the file. That does not seem right. I'd probably try setting up a scenario where the values in attribute 2 and 3 are simply the name of the file -- D_IN.MASTER. Otherwise, you might give IBM a call to see if they can help. Tom Firl -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: How to Add Triggers on Dicts
Dear Dennis, Is your subroutine GLOBAL cataloged ? Vincent - Original Message - From: Dennis Bartlett [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'U2 Users Discussion List' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2004 2:48 PM Subject: How to Add Triggers on Dicts I'm attempting to write a mini-revision control system. We use original System Builder, which stores file-related screens in the dict of those files, plus of course having to record changes to dict records too. I've tried the example posted to the list by Bryan Thorell, a work of beauty for adding triggers to data files. CREATE TRIGGER AUDIT_XXX AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON XXX FOR EACH ROW CALLING 'DATA.TRIGGER' ; I've tried various ways of modding this statement to add the trigger to a dict, but alas no success. Any ideas? dennis bartlett -- 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
RE: How to Add Triggers on Dicts
Hi Vincent, Is your subroutine GLOBAL cataloged ? Thanks for the prompt reply! Yes, it is cataloged using the INFORMATION FLAVOR catalog command. (our system runs on a PICK flavor account) The trigger is currently working fine on DATA files. It's just the adding of it to DICT files that's boggling me at present. Once I've got that right, I'll have to think of some way to monitor Type 1/19 files, but that's another day. dennis -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

RE: How to Add Triggers on Dicts
I successfully used this technique a few months back during a little troubleshooting exercise... I simply created an F-pointer that specified the D_FileName in both attributes 2 and 3. Essentially, you end up with an entity that gives you similar behavior to the reflexive Q-pointers you see on the traditional PICK platforms.
