The syntax described here must be UniVerse specific. I don't see
anything like this in UniData. :-(

Or nicer to have a different name to COMMON e.g.
SESSION /CLEAR_THIS/ SESSION_STUFF(SMALL)
COMMON /KEEP_THIS/ COMMON_STUFF(BIG)
Or something along those lines.

That's why you would specify.
Example:
COMMON /SYSSTUFF/ SYSSTUFF(100)
COMMON /MYSTUFF/ MYSTUFF.REC(100) -CLEAR.ON.LOGTO
Then only the MYSTUFF gets cleared. This is the kind of logic that I have
to end up writing over and over again to make sure new files get opened when
a person does LOGTO to a different account.
Programmers would make all their Account specific data into a single named
common that has the flag to initialize on LOGTO. And keep other
cross-account data in common that isn't flagged.
Easy.

Okay that was a bad example.....
But I think you get my general drift.
There are some common variables that are truly universal and should persist.

ou don't really want to clear all common variables all the time.
ome common variables are actually universal.
Take for example that you store in common the say.... full name of the user
who s logged in, and their extension.
hat doesn't change on a logto. Some people use things like that in a LOCKED
lause to say "John Brown has this locked, call him on extension 7204" so
the sers don't have to call the help desk on locks, they can peer to peer
it.
Sure you can reread things like that. It's half white half black.
o I clear half the common ? Or reread half the common?

hile this topic is on the table, can we request some kind of COMMON flag or
mmand that would tell the DBM to clear commons on a LOGTO?

ook inside those routines, and determine that they are agnostic about you

ject: Re: [U2] COMMON Size MisMatch
you *do* use CLEARCOMMON you have to be alert to gremlins as well.
TO is not expecting to have to reinitialize the system and so probably sn't.
need to review what the Login process is doing as well.
may end up wiping out control information such as the user's port, name, in
time, functions they can and can't do, menu access, default printer, d o on
and so forth.
l depends on how complex the login processor has become at your site.
e sites don't do a darn thing. Some have thousands of lines of code at in.
Some of which set common (read "environment") variables, that you on't
t* to clear, or at least that you want to reset if you do clear them.

ce all common variables are cleared when you exit UniVerse, and liminates e
rror, is it possible your user used a LOGTO command to witch vironments that
ave different versions of the subroutine OP.R87?
had both a Test and a Prod environment on the same box, and xperienced blems
when enhanced code in Test was being staged for romotion into Prod.
ecuting a program in Test that had changes to ts COMMON, and then logging to
rod resulted in the size mismatch rror when running the unchanged ogram.
solution was to insert "CLEARCOMMON" in the LOGIN paragraphs.

in subroutine named XYZ.R1.
le I would like to pass parameters back-and-forth invoking bona fide ternal
broutines using commands such as... CALL *MY.SUB.R2(param1, param2,

I have a few big old legacy programs with nasty COMMON tentacles.
can I make these pesky COMMON messages go away?
