Then Pixius' product is *perfect* for you, that's all you need. Using
exactly that, we had both a reporting front-end (read-only) and one that
was read-write for users to enter records into a handful of files. If
we knew then what we know now, we might still be using it, but we didn't
design it very well and it became difficult to maintain. That was *our*
fault, and perhaps an inherent issue with procedural programming where
all variables are global-- the usual gripes about UniBasic coming from
an object-oriented programmer.

What do you not like about MVInternet? I didn't do the original setup,
but you need to configure Apache so that it does CGI, probably by
installing a module (?). Then you place "mvi.exe" in the cgi-bin
directory, it has a config file to tell it what to connect to, and it
basically "logs in" with a telnet session and runs UniBasic programs at
the colon prompt. The output of those (whatever you CRT to the
"screen", which is now HTML instead of columns of data) gets captured,
you tell it to swap [TOKEN.NAMES] with the values that you set up in two
dynamic arrays, and it sends the resulting HTML out to the browser. I
think there's a trial version, grab it and ask if you have any
questions.
Port 80 is the default HTTP ("web") port. It's what you connect to when
you type http://www.example.com. Sometimes you will see a URL like
http://www.example.com:8081 where the number after the colon is a
different port number. If you have a URL starting with https:// it is
going to port 443, the default SSL port. Apparently you can use
CallHTTP to answer requests directly from UniVerse. I would not expose
a port on my production database server to the internet, however!

Re: Uniobjects / php
Well, if your webserver is on a windows, you could use Uniobject for windows (OLE). Or maybe you could use the bridge to java to use UniObject for java... But, I'm working on an interface of Intercall to python using SWIG, and it seems to work very well, both on windows and linux. And I know that SWIG can generated interface from a "dll" to a lot of langage, and php is one of these targets. check www.swig.org Christophe David Katz wrote: Does anyone know if they have uniobjects for php?

RE: Uniobjects / php
If you want to play around with PHP interacting with the Universe environment in an extremely simple way you can try the stuff below. Note that I dont recommend this methodology for production systems but its a good simple example. The following stuff will execute any Universe command/cataloged program, pass it data via the command line, and display the results. Assumptions: You have a universe account setup as uvtest under your web root on a machine running apache/php. The lister.html and lister.php files will reside in the uvtest Universe account directory. First create an html file (lister.html) containing a form to collect our program name and any data to be passed to it. Here is my html: Generic UV Process Runner Lets Run A Universe Process Program Name Some Data Now create our PHP file (lister.php): Uvtest "; } ?> Point your browser to Http://localhost/uvtest/lister.html and happily execute anything you can do from a UV command line. I first tested this with "LIST VOC SAMPLE 5" as the program name and no data entered. If you construct programs which take command line input and output html code you can pretty much create a whole application which uses "lister.php" as a generic data mover. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

> David, > I'd be interested in this answer as well. I assume you saw my original reply about using the PHP->Java extension with UOJ. However, since PHP extensions seem to be written in some strange version of highly pre-processed C code, I did actually embark on writing a U2 extension for PHP, sitting on top of InterCall. Unfortunately I'm not a C programmer, and I got repeatedly stuck and frustrated trying to get it to compile and work. It did look very possible, and someone who knows C and PHP could most likely make short work of it. -- 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

Will wrote: > So are you saying that with Universe, Uniobjects [for Java] and Java only > I can have a web presence directly talking to my Universe database? > Is that what you're saying? Your list appears to be missing a web server (and probably a Servlet Container if you go the UniObjects for Java route) but yes, it's certainly possible. It *can* all run on the same server, if you want. (I wouldn't...) I've had a web front-end on a UniData database for ages now, the users love it. (For some reason they hate to "log in" to the telnet app, but will happily click on a link and type the exact same userid/password pair when prompted from the web interface. Go figure.) I would not recommend the PHP->Java extension for use in production until someone more knowledgeable than I am in C and PHP takes a look at it, but it did at least work. You don't even need all that... You can open port 80 on the database server and serve content from there, (see above!) or get something like MVInternet from Pixius and stay completely in UniBasic and HTML. Our first web presence was done with MVInternet, and it was just retired this past weekend in favor of another Struts-based Java web application. Do you have a specific project in mind? There are at least half a dozen ways to get U2 data to appear on a web page, the "best" way depends on what expertise you already have in-house and how complex the problem is. -- 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

Re: Uniobjects
Steve, (and others who may be curious about migrating to GUI) As one with extensive experience in development of GUI and character based applications with the Nucleus/NRG environment, I would like to offer a rapid 2 cents worth. You wrote: > We are in the process of analyzing different approaches to porting our > software to a GUI environment. We are currently looking at Uniobjects for > Java, System Builder, jBase with ObjEx, OpenInsight and Obsydian (which I > have yet to get information on). If you have any other ideas or have gone > through this process, I would like to know a few things: > 1) How is the response time with multiple windows up at the same time? Response time to switch between windows is usually dependent on basic factors: a) Size of the object(s) (i.e. programs) that will be brought into "focus". b) Speed of the "client" machine, as fast desktops are cheap these days (1,800 mhz AMD processor system for under $300.00), a client system with a 700 mhz or better processor with adequate memory ensures rapid transition times between modules. c) Large modules that load data from a host system can take a few seconds to initially load especially when large amounts of data are to be displayed. (Compare loading of a large Excel spreadsheet to a small one). d) Multiple objects may exist on a active desktop, some in "sleep" mode, and others in "active" mode where the active objects come to focus more quickly. e) As the Nucleus environment is a "smart-thin-client" environment, the only thing that is loaded from the host system is a template describing to the "client-manager" what and where, along with the data to be displayed. I can safely state that you can either work hard and write code to incorporate objects, or let the Nucleus/NRG engine do the work for you with a far faster deployment and greatly simplified maintenance. > 2) How did you deal with security? We need field level security. Security in Nucleus/NRG can be controlled at the field level on a user by user or group level. Security for any Menu, File, Command, Device etc., can also be implemented on a user or group basis, much as exists in a unix environment. Security can be added at design time or tightened up later as security requirements are codified (written) without incurring any design stage issues. There will be no problem if you desire to implement security as an afterthought, as it is inherent in the Nucleus engine managing the object sets. > 3) The approach you used to convert the screens, etc. Nucleus screen design is structured to layer on top of data definitions - i.e. DATA DICTS. If your dictionaries are "clean" and easily read and understood by humans - either A, S or I type, you can quickly prototype a screen from the Nucleus shell prompt, as: CUSTOMERFILE CUST.ID WINDOW(width,depth,column,row) @(col,row) COMPANY ADDRESS etc. and have a screen appear within seconds. The design phase is rather straightforward and familiar to anyone who has used BASIC, RETRIEVE/ENGLISH and data dictionaries. Rules can be quickly added, existing subroutines can be called as long as the COMMON blocks don't conflict. Btree selections are a no-brainer to implement along with intersected joins and automated choicewindow selections. Migrating from a hand-coded character based environment to a Rapid Deployment environment adds many options to the design equation that were impracticle with manual code. Adding drill-downs, pop-up selections or multiple pages to screens are incredibly simple to accomplish. Collaborating with end-users is no-longer a frustrating process with Nucleus.. You can often prototype the guts of an application in a few minutes to demonstrate the "look and feel" and then add the bells and whistles as the user-population and the programming group firm up the design concepts. There is an easy transition path to GUI in Nucleus without a steep learning curve - a couple of days of instruction and you can be well on your way to being very comfortable developing within the environment. An integrated environment exists within Nucleus that doesn't require any knowledge of objects or properties and allows you to do your development and maintenance in ways that are intuitive to a "pick programmer". If you want or need to integrate ActiveX objects, java script or C#, those controls can be easily integrated. Nucleus supports GUI, green-screen, character based color as well as WEB support using the same "rule-sets", greatly reducing support effort and ensuring data consistency. BTW, Nucleus supports most multi-dimensional environments and allows an application created in say Universe or UniData (following simple rules), to be ported without effort to another environment such as jBASE, D3, UniVision, etc with only a re-compile. There is a migration outline available on our website:
RE: Uniobjects
No so at all - the majority of the WinFAST installations that are out there (not STORIS mind you but the other, non-MV ones) are primarily done in "AutoGui" mode. This is a mechanism that we chose not to use because we opted for the "whole hog" approach. I recommend that anyone looking for a relatively simple, inexpensive and quick to market solution to the perennial "it looks like DOS" complaint. Look at WinFAST - it's versatile (you can get a GUI in a short period of time, thus preserving market share) and then, if you choose to, go to the event driven model. As you know Debster, we made a reasoned business decision not to go with the AutoGui mechanism because we felt that A) we had enough time left in the character based application to "do it right the first time" and B) that the underlying business rules needed to be broken out of the input routines anyway. Based on those two facts, the decision to re-write was made with full knowledge of the time and expense needed. Prior to making that decision however, several proof of concept trials were made and the face of the product was very successfully changed to look as though it were developed in VB (or other graphically-oriented tool). I stand by my statement having been intimately involved with the product from the beginning of our relationship with them.

Steve, Look at NRG (Nucleus & Accuterm). The screens are fast, the security is all server based (even at the field level), and the tool allows you to use the same code base to service green screens during the transition. Nucleus also lets you develop for the web and use those web pages as green screens as well. http://www.binarystar.com -- Sincerely, Charles Barouch www.KeyAlly.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] Steve Mayo wrote: Hi Everyone, We are in the process of analyzing different approaches to porting our software to a GUI environment.

RE: File permissions problem with UniObjects for Java
Apologies for the delay. Wendy I had this same problem a while back. From memory the reason it works at the colon prompt but not from uniobjects it the umask. When you run udt it inherits it's umask from your environment. On linux I have a unidata.sh file in /etc/profile.d which sets it to 002 and the files will be created as rw-rw-r--. Other responses have explained how the umask works. A uniobjects session inherits it's environment from the unirpcd which in turn inherits this from the startud and startunirpcd. If you grep umask in $UDTBIN/startud you will find "umask 022". As Charlie mentioned, the simplest fix is to alter $UDTBIN/startunirpcd so unirpcd inherits the umask you want.

RE: Suppressing detail in UniObjects command
Yes, it sounds like you use the "P"ick style by either turning UDT.OPTIONS 2 ON or with ECLTYPE P for your "regular" sessions. I believe UniObjects defaults to ECLTYPE U. I haven't tried in a UniObjects session to change the ECLTYPE - you just need to learn the "U" type syntax which is somewhat different but has much more power. Check the online help for list and sort for the basic syntax. If you want to "test" your commands at TCL you can simply use the lower case list or sort to force UniData to use the "U" type command parser. hth -- Colin Alfke Calgary, Alberta Canada "Just because something isn't broken doesn't mean that you can't fix it" Stu Pickles >-Original Message- >From: Nick Southwell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, March 15, 2004 9:38 AM >To: U2 Users Discussion List >Subject: RE: Suppressing detail in UniObjects command > > >Sooo.. > >Coming from a very small Unidata background >sounds like you're saying I need to set my >ECL type within the Uniobjects session? > >Thanks > >Nick -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

I am assuming that the variables that are in the comments are the arguments
that are passed to the subroutine.

//numArgs looks like 4 in your case

mySub.setArg(1, "PC_SHIP.CM.REC value");
mySub.setArg(2, "PRICE_CODE_TYPE value");

mySub.call();

Re: Executing Basic Programs from UniObjects for Java
Yes, the S0903 program has some PRINT statements. It also has some INPUT
statements. I was hoping that I could just use the UniCommand.reply()
method to provide the inputs to this call.
Does the troublesome BASIC make any use of terminal driver capability, even
perhaps the @ function to switch off the "press any key" prompt? Any
SET.TERM.TYPE, GET.TERM.TYPE, TTYCTL() calls or the like? PRINT (or CRT or
DISPLAY) statements?
UniObjects connections do not, of course, have any terminal capabilities.

Executing Basic Programs from UniObjects for Java
I am trying to execute a basic program using the UniSession and UniCommand
classes. I have done this with other basic programs that are on the
Universe system without any problems. For the one I am trying to use now I
get back an error message from the response method that reads:
TERMTYPE IS NOT SETUP FOR THIS USER PORT
The only difference that I can see with this basic program vs the other
basic programs that I have working with this method is that this one makes
a call to a basic subroutine.
My java code looks something like this:
// session is the currently connected UniSession
UniCommand unicom = session.command();
// COSTEST is the basic program on the host machine
unicom.setCommand("RUN COSTEST");
unicom.exec();
String resp = unicom.response();
Upon execution, the value of resp = TERMTYPE IS NOT SETUP FOR THIS USER
PORT
COSTEST is a cataloged basic program on the host system with this line in
it:
.
CALL S0903(CO,FILE,PGM,SEL,INITS)
.
If I comment out this line the program runs OK but the data that it returns
is not correct. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jim

I think there was a thread a while back about this. There was a problem with stacking the commands (but you can try that). The other things you can do is to put them into a paragraph and run the paragraph or write a basic routine to process a list of commands.

RE: File permissions problem with UniObjects for Java
Off the top of my head, the default permissions and umask are 666 and 022, respectively. Subtracting the two gives you 644 or -rw-r--r--, which is what the UOJ code gave you. When you telnet, the .profile usually sets the umask to 002. Subtracting 002 from 666 gives you -rw-rw-r--, which is what you got when you logged in.

RE: When is developing with UniObjects the correct approach?
Karjala, UniObjects is the quickest route for client/server work with U2. It emulates the native model for direct file and stored procedure operations - you open a file, read a record by key, perform operations, write it back. Fast and very efficient for transactional applications. The advantage/disadvantage of UniObjects is that it is a permanent per-user connection. In other words, each Objects session operates as a database user, just like a TELNET session. This is essential for integrating with BASIC procedures that expect things like common (persistent) variables to remain between calls and that use pessimistic locking (the default for U2 systems). If you are writing a transactional application for a predictable number of users, UniObjects is the way to go. BTW the best way to consider using UniObjects (and we've been using it since day one of its release) is to code all of your procedures in BASIC on the server first, unit test them, then write the front end to deploy against them. Makes debugging in a 'black box' environment very much easier, and allows you to gain performance improvements by keeping the logic close to the server. Now the drawback is if you want to deploy into a Web/Browser based environment, or any environment where you want to scale up the number of users without scaling up the number of sessions on the database (e.g. a public service where the number of users cannot be predicted) UniObjects does not provide that ability (for the reasons above). For that, you need to use a tool like RedBack, which is specifically designed around a responder mechanism. The final IBM options are OleDB and ODBC. I personally wouldn't use either of these for transactional operations: they are too top heavy as they are adding a whole layer of processing just to make U2 look relational. Which is isn't (really). The only time I would consider these is when interfacing to standard packages that don't understand anything else: and then I'd go for OleDB over ODBC for all of the usual client-side performance reasons.

RE: Uniobjects & Asp
Agree absolutely, we had gone down the route of middle tier vb and vb.net components for the business logic. The problem was in Unidata serialising concurrent requests effectively leaving us with a single user system. Redback would have been a nice option, but we had spent 6 months developing a complete solution so the pain in moving to PDP with a small amount of "data caching" in a Sql Server layer was the quickest way out for us. Concurrency testing of UniOLEDB never occurred to us, we knew UniObjects couldn't handle the thin client / Server processing model and decided based on the IBM info and previous experience of OLEDB to go down that route. How many people routinely test SQL Server or Oracle OLEDB drivers before developing a solution on them? It's a hard lesson to learn.

No. Let me try and prevent the pain I had to go through. We avoided Uniobjects because by design its use is for client/server And it doesn't handle multiple concurrent requests. Knowing this We used UniOLEDB and it turned out to have concurrency issues as well whereby the driver threads correctly but the unirpc service queues All requests and processes them serially. On a simple Query 1 user takes 5 seconds and if 2 users hit the page they both take 9 to 10 seconds and so on. Our backend is Unidata 5.2 so it may be different for universe but please, please do some concurrency testing before you Embark on any project.

RE: Uniobjects & Asp
Rudy, The short answer is that I don't think YOU can make it thread safe - this is something IBM would have to do - UNLESS you wrote a wrapper that forced single threading (which sort of defeats the purpose) Would something like RedBack provide an adequate alternate solution for you?

Is there some problem with executing two UniCommands in succession? I
try to minimize the RPC calls, but if it's just two I probably wouldn't
move it up to the database server.
[not tested]
uCommand = uSession.command ("QSELECT CLIENT.XREF 12345");
uCommand.exec();
uCommand = uSession.command ("SSELECT AR.TR BY MATTER WITH INVOICE =
12345");
uCommand.exec();
(I'm not sure if UniCommands are mutable, you might be able to do
uCommand.setCommand() for the second one.) Since you're in the same
session, it should keep the active select list.

UniCommand via UniObjects (Java)
I'm attempting to send a compound command with the UniCommand object and have hit what looks like a documented limitation. Before I go off and rethink how I'm doing this, I thought I'd ask to make sure this really won't work. What I'm attempting is to run something like this under UniObjects. QSELECT CLIENT.XREF "12345" :@FM: SSELECT AR.TR BY MATTER WITH INVOICE = "12345" On this system, doing this results in a very quick selection of a couple hundred records out of the AR.TR file. But, the docs for UniObjects say only one command at a time. Does this mean that sticking a couple commands together like this is just not possible? I've tried it and it looks like the QSELECT is being attempted with all parts of the command string. If it won't work, I suppose I'll be reduced to writing up a stub of a program to do the same thing and just call it from the UniObjects side of things. But, if there's a better way, I'm all ears.

Re: Help with UniObjects
Try checking the .error property on your file object. UmFooFoo Murphy wrote: Hello List. I'm hoping that someone out there can help me. I have an application in Visual Basic that uses UniObjects.

RE: Help with UniObjects
Are you using the control or an object in code? We switched from the control to the object because the latter was more stable.

RE: Help with UniObjects
Check the vb code for a fatal. Make sure you have some on error statements in the subroutines. It sounds like something has caused a fatal and continued due to a resume next statement, but that the ObjSessiont is now nothing. Check and see if the ObjSessionis still active or is now set for nothing. Also this could be that the ObjSession is in a class that was dropped after the first run through. There is a quirk in VBA for excel which can cause the ObjSession to be set to nothing. For whatever reason, your VB code has probably caused the ObjSession to be set to nothing, so if you can find that yoou will proabably resolve the issue.
