That wouldn't work if DOUG was a subroutine. Sometimes, for debugging in-use code I put in a line like 'IF @PORT = (my current port) THEN DEBUG' - remembering to take it out afterwards! Often this is enough to help track down issues without affecting other users...

Why not just catalog the original in EURO.BP for the end users, and do a RUN DOUG.BP DOUG when testing your changes. Dan Goble RATEX Business Solutions, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of doug chanco Sent: Thursday, May 22, 2008 9:21 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] execute code/proc question HELP!!!!!!!! is there any way in Universe 10.x (running on AIX) to "path" how universe finds code to execute? For example I have a program called "DOUG" in EURO.BP and copy it to DOUG.BP and compile/catalog it there, so that now the VOC entry points to DOUG.BP but I would like other users to be able to run the original version while I fix my version. For those familiar with jBASE this is easily solved by modifying each users path to that they "search" for the object code in a specific order. for example PATH=$PATH:/usr2/zircon/DOUG.O:/usr2/zirocn/EURO.BP.O this way it looks in DOUG.BP.O and if the object code is found executes it otherwise look in EURO.BP.O and if found there execute it. Now all I have to do is modify other users PATH to NOT search DOUG.BP.O or move EURO.BP.O in front of DOUG.BP.O and it will find EURO.BP.O first (and stop looking) I am hoping that there is something equivalent in universe or some way that I can duplicate this (I am even willing to look at doing it "with basic code" if possible) ANY and ALL suggestions are welcomed! thanks dougc ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please remember to recycle wherever possible.
