[U2] Maverick DBMS
Hi, Has anyone had any experience with the open source mv database maverick. What were your impressions, experiences etc. I am evaluating it as an alternative to Universe, specifically looking at converting our BASIC code to Java. Is this possible ?, or does maverick just put a wrapper around by BASIC code so that it acts like a Java Class Any information would be helpful Thanks Mac Bhyat Software Engineer - Special Projects Unibase Solutions (Pty) Ltd.

Re: [U2] Maverick DBMS
Hi Mac, Apologies if this is partially a product advert but you did ask the question As far as I know, Maverick has quietly died. I may be completely wrong. Even though we have an open source version of our own OpenQM product, I would not recommend use of open source for a commercial development as it has no warranty or support. You could be dead in the water for a considerable time while trying to fix problems. This seems to be a difficult approach to sell to management. Open source is fine for those who want to develop some nifty new feature that the product developers would never have thought of but for a fully supported business system you really need a commercial licence. Also, as is beginning to happen in OpenQM and probably applies to other products too, the more advanced features may not be in the open source. From listening to users who have gone the open source route, I think that they often end up spending more getting the system up and running than they would have spent for a commercial licence. I am evaluating it as an alternative to Universe, specifically looking at converting our BASIC code to Java. Is this possible ? Why would you want to do this? The very nature of both multivalue Basic and Java suggests that this will cost you heavily in performance. If there are things that you want to do that can only be done in Java, it should be possible to escape from Basic out into Java or the reverse.

RE: [U2] SB+ Output Redirection
No, I've got that. The documentation doesn't go into enough detail. I want to mimic what SB+ is doing with output redirection by calling OUTPUT.SELECT with the same parameters for each case, and then add my own code for SB+ reports and queries. I don't want untakeable options for a report type to show up, which is what will happen if I just use OUTPUT.SELECT,SBXDFHB for everything else, and I don't want to miss the extra options some report types have. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Woodward Sent: Monday, March 19, 2007 7:39 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] SB+ Output Redirection I think he's wanting a pointer to the online documentation.

For example, when a PD.R process is called where output destination is Ask, SB+ calls OUTPUT.SELECT,SBXDFHB.

RE: [U2] Maverick DBMS
I looked at Maverick along time ago. Yes it was written in Java but unless my memory is totatly gone the datastore was one of the open-source databases (MySQL ??). I just could not grasp how his was a help - now you have not only Java to worry about you have another database to hold your pick data. Martin is correct in my opinion - one spends too much time in getting the database to compile, to run etc - and you can not concentrate on programming. If you have a commercial use a commercial database. I am sure you are aware you can use Java with U2 products - get the best of both words. Don't know about Martin's but I would bet he has a Java interface also.

Re: [U2] Maverick DBMS
Mac, If the goal is to Java program with mv data, you don't need to leave UniVerse. There are documented Java-accessible UniVerse connectors where you can keep the data in UniVerse and still do the bulk of the coding in Java. Look at UOJ (UniVerse Objects For Java) for a start. - Chuck Java-Jolted Barouch Mac Bhyat wrote: I am evaluating it as an alternative to Universe, specifically looking at converting our BASIC code to Java.

Is there anyone out there who can help me with an Unibjects issue I am facing. We currently are working with Universe 9.6 and I am using Uniobjects to retrieve the information. I have successfully used ReadNamedField method to do that. We will be moving to Universe 10.1.17. I am unable to use the ReadNamedField method available in the newer releases of Uniobjects anymore.

RE: [U2] -ve INDEX,OCONV
Hi Sanjeeb - as Phil states these are simple questions - I think it worries some people that you may be coding systems with little knowledge. This is not just a programming language it is a whole DBMS and application environment. The answer to the -1 question is that it appends to the dynamic array. However care must be taken as depending on type and setup of u2 system a null value will not be appended. The conversion code d2/ means the year is in 2 digits and that the date is / delimited i.e. dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy depending on your DATE.FORMAT settings. There are a whole host of conversion codes documented in the U2 documentation. As suggested, I would recommend some form of training as well !

From actually doing it there is really *no* significant penalty in executing your basic code in a JVM(which is JIT compiled) relative to the homespun VM's in other mv platforms or the C translated code jbase produces. The problems have all being due to the library implementation(ie wrong algorithm chosen) not the actual underlying platform.

Check out : www.mvopen.org/cms and click the Knowledge Base link. Regards, Brian Hi guys, I am messing with Visual Basic Express edition. I was hoping to use UniObjects against my Universe Database. The examples in the UniObjects Developers Guide are a little outdated. How do I get the UniObjects to appear in the toolbar (if you can do this) ? They refer to Sub Form_Load, which I have seen in older versions of VB, but not VB 2005. Basically what I am looking for is a 'quick fix' for the 5 minute program example in the Developers Guide that has already taken me beyond that time frame.
