I use triggers on 10.2 files frequently.

What file type is GVMTA030?

If it's a type 1 or 19, it won't work. If it is a static hashed 2 through 18 it will. Also works on type 30.

However, if it is a distributed file, you have to create the trigger on each individual partfile; you cannot name the top level DF.

Also, do a tcl

>.L GVMTA030

And see if there is an M in line four. Creating triggers on multi data level files requires some tricks as the comma is not valid in a file name for CREATE TRIGGER (SQL syntax restriction).

What type of file are you using?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Marcos, what version of universe are you running ?
We used to use the index w subroutine method you describe but this is
now gone in favour of native universe triggers.  We have many files in
universe with triggers on them , there is no requirement to SQL'ize the table and believe me these tables would take a LOT of work to make them
sql conformant.
Universe will add a SICA for the table but that's it, any garbage hashed
file works just fine afaik.

Subject: Re: [U2] Universe and triggers

Hi Marcos,

Universe seems hellbent on invoking the entire SQL system in order to
put a simple trigger on a file. UniData is MUCH more forgiving in that
regard.

With Universe, I have had a certain amount of success making what I call
'indexed subroutines'  where by an index on a file calls a virtual
Dictionary subroutine which does, in fact, operate as a rudimentary
trigger. You CANNOT affect data going to the actual file record update as you might with an actual trigger, but you can write information to a
tracking database and then I have a background phantom in operation
which manages email distribution from the triggered events and what not. I *could* even write back to the originating file record that initiated
the trigger -- I've closed off the mortal embrace between phantom and
virtual subroutine -- but that will always have a lag time between the
actual record update event and the final conclusion of the trigger, so I
would not consider it a particularly clean solution for true database
triggering.  It does work well as a tracking and reporting system,
though.

Hi,



It is possible create a trigger (subroutine) for a pick file (non SQL
table)?

On D3 we have CALLX, is there a feature like this in Universe?



Thanks in advance.
