RE: [U2] curious EQUATE issue - SOLVED Just want to know if anyone understands WHY?

2007-10-23 Thread Bill Haskett
Jerry:

I hate to mention the obvious, but one should not equate anything unless they 
intend
both sides of the equate to change when either variable changes.  For instance,

DIM MYREC(30)
EQUATE MYREC.DATE TO MYREC(1)
EQUATE MYREC.NAME TO MYREC(2)
--etc--

Thus, whenever MYREC changes, due to a new record read, so does MYREC.DATE, etc.
Alternatively, you simply have to alter MYREC.DATE to make sure the MYREC 
record has
been changed too.  To fix the problems you've encountered try:

VALID.CC.TYPES = 'A':@VM:'B':@VM:'D':@VM:'M':@VM:'S':@VM:'V'
VALID.CC.NAMES = 'American Express':@VM:'Carte Blanche':@VM:'Diners
Club':@VM:'Mastercard':@VM:'Discover':@VM:'Visa'

VALID.CC.TYPES2 = 'A]B]D]M]S]V'
VALID.CC.NAMES2 = 'American Express]Carte Blanche]Diners
Club]Mastercard]Discover]Visa'

...the output looks like:

3 Dev (0)-> RUN DTABP TEST
Equate with @VM: A2B2D2M2S2V
Equate with @VM: American Express2Carte Blanche2Diners 
Club2Mastercard2Discover2V
isa

Equate with `253: A2B2D2M2S2V
Equate with `253: American Express2Carte Blanche2Diners 
Club2Mastercard2Discover2
Visa

Account type: A

FIRST WAY
Account name: American Express
Position: 1

SECOND WAY
Account name: American Express
Position: 1

THIRD WAY
Account name: American Express
Position: 1

FOURTH WAY
Account name: American Express
Position: 1

In all the years I've been doing this I've never run into these kinds of 
problems
because I follow the basic guideline noted.  So, use an equate if both sides can
change.  If that's not what you want make a simple assignment.  There is no 
reason,
with today's machines, to create more complexity of syntax in order to 
accomplish
this simple task.

Just my $.02  :-)

Re: [U2] Fastest Bi-Directional data transfer btwn MV and non

2007-10-23 Thread Craig Bennett

Baker,

if you want something that will run pretty much anywhere, high 
throughput and all the transport level thinking done for you why not IBM 
MQSeries (Websphere MQ).


Pretty easy to integrate into any of the MV's through the C libraries 
and IBM already make it available in UV/UD.


Maybe not as fast as pure sockets but:
   - Flexible - Batch, Realtime, Send & Receive, Send & Forget, Publish 
& Subscribe

   - Probably already works with your DB/Platform of choice
   - VERY reliable
   - Data format neutral -- send XML, Fixed Width, Dynamic Arrays, SQL 
statements whatever best fits your needs

Re: [U2] curious EQUATE issue - SOLVED Just want to know if anyone understands WHY?

2007-10-23 Thread Richard Nuckolls

regarding the example below:


EQU VALID.CC.TYPES TO CHANGE('A.B.D.M.S.V','.',@VM)


The problem with this is that the "CHANGE" within the  EQU will get  
evaluated at run time, so it will be done repeatedly if placed within  
a LOOP or FOR structure.


You would be better off with the earlier suggestion of

EQU VALID.CC.TYPES TO ('A':@VM:'B':@VM:'D':@VM:'M':@VM:'S':@VM:'V')

The concatenation will be done by the compiler, and the parenthesis  
will protect the LOCATE field designator, "<1,1>" from being  
interpreted as an extraction.  This does compile, by the way.

RE: [U2] Fastest Bi-Directional data transfer btwn MV and non MV dbms

2007-10-23 Thread Tony G
> What is the fastest and lowest cpu overhead method of 
> transferring data between U2/MV databases, and other data sources?

Our esteemed colleague and moderator Chuck Barouch has/had a product called
Zeus which does/did transfers like this.  If he can avoid self-censorship
for a moment I would invite him to respond to this inquiry with his own
experience in this area.

As time permits I have been writing demos to show an MV DBMS populating SQL
Server.  As I said in another post today, the communications pipe is
unimportant as is the DBMS.  The same demo can be used for any MV DBMS and
for any RDBMS, all someone needs to do is change the SQL query or stored
procedure, and match the RDBMS fields to fields retrieved from the MV side.
It comes down to a simple bit of X-to-Y mapping of fields and ensuring data
types are properly managed.  I'm sorry that I do not yet have a video of
this on our website but I did show this demo and others along with code in
my recent presentation to SAPUG.

Maybe I can kick off a discussion of numbers:
Without any optimization and on an over-burdened 2GHz laptop I'm getting
about 200 records per second extracted from MV and Inserted into SQL
Server.  SQL Updates on the same data is roughly about 1/2 that.  Amongst
other business responsibilities I'm trying to find time to optimize the
queries on both sides and run on a system which is more likely to generate
production-quality numbers.  I have a 3GHz dual core Athlon that should
yield some good numbers soon.  I'd appreciate it if someone else can
provide some other realistic numbers so that I have a goal for
acceptability.

As a low-priority development project, and driven by common requests we
find here, we have a package which moves data from any MV environment to
any RDBMS.  It allows for construction of a query string for about 15
different relational sources and that X/Y mapping of fields and data types.
I wish this were further along so that I could provide some numbers about
transfers from U2 to Excel, QM to Oracle, D3 to DB2, Reality to Interbase,
etc.  I would welcome discussion with someone who can help to drive this
development.


If that's too subtle, and at the risk of soliciting, we can't proactively
develop tools like this unless we get financing, and you only get people to
fund projects if you ask.  That's not an ad, it's a fact of business.  More
solutions would be available for common problems if this community were
more willing to match supply/talent with the demand of ongoing business
needs.  As it is, for years we continue to see the same data transfer
problems presented every week as though it's the first time someone is
asking the question.

RE: [U2] and PDF

2007-10-23 Thread Tony G
When I was at Raining Data back in 1999 I created a demo which allows data
entered in a PDF form to be posted to D3 via FlashCONNECT, and a simple web
page is returned to confirm that data.  The demo is available here:
http://flashconnect.rainingdata.com/fcdemos/index.html
Click the PDF demo.  The DBMS is irrelevant as is the pipe from client to
server.  The same functionality is available with U2 and any of the common
pipes used for web development.

Is this the sort of functionality that you're looking for?  If so, info is

Hi Rex,

Interesting, never tried it before.  I've only used it when I've had stuff
that wouldn't go directly into EQU such as @(-1) in MvBASE.  In that case I
did:

CCLR = @(-1)
EQU CLR TO CCLR

Wonder if

EQU VALID.CC.TYPES TO CHANGE('A.B.D.M.S.V','.',@VM)

Would work or error out.?

-Original Message-
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Rex Gozar

Allen,

In your example, you use a variable in an EQUATE statement.  This
references the variable's pointer, not its value.  So the code:

TEMP = CHANGE('A.B.D.M.S.V','.',@VM)
EQU VALID.CC.TYPES TO TEMP
TEMP = "SOMETHINGELSE"   ;* change TEMP's value
DISPLAY VALID.CC.TYPES

will display "SOMETHINGELSE", not the valid cc types as intended.

We have been in the transferring MultiValue data to other data sources
since the early 80's (PK Harmony to start with, anyone remember). We may
have some good input for you.


I'm not in a position to buy anything, really just trying to think
through the questions posted.
It would be lovely to have your developer join the thread and describe
how PKH/FW does it's magic.
Not expecting him to share code, of course, just a few thoughts about
your approach is all.

Sorry to draw you into the cross fire, that's why I said what I did

Subject: [U2] Fastest Bi-Directional data transfer btwn MV and non MV dbms

Hey,

What is the fastest and lowest cpu overhead method of transferring data
between U2/MV databases, and other data sources?

Assumed:
a) no restrictions on underlying OS - whichever best facilitates your
proposed method.
b) no restrictions on Database of choice - I know this is a U2 list and
we all have commitments to it, but if someone else (QM, Cache, D3...) is
doing something that we ought to be doing in U2, name the db and feat
they are accomplishing.
C) Production system - the system must also support your OLTP users, not
dedicated to data serving

The primary concern is throughput, screaming fast throughput.

Dogs that won't hunt:
1) if you want to take a potshot at methods that are in your estimation
- tired dogs - take aim.
2) beneficent and ruthless honesty - so that this doesn't descend into a
religious war please be honest yet charitable.
3) No Ads - don't respond with [just] a product name, tell what it does,
the underlying method / technology

We are after the technically superior destination, emotions aside,
barring past development investments.
I'm trying to take a clean white board approach to this question and
appreciate your help in answering it.

A few to consider [just as starters]:
i) old jacks - WRITE/READBLK from MV triggered by whatever signal/method
ii) Ajax - Async jscript & Xml
iii) ODBC / JDBC

Thanks so much,
-Baker

Sockets.  If you have a consumer that can accept a socket connection, I
believe that'll provide the most efficient throughput.

RE: [U2] Fastest Bi-Directional data transfer btwn MV and non MV dbms

2007-10-23 Thread Glen Batchelor
Baker,

  There is a happy medium between CPU overhead and bandwidth usage. If you
use compression of some kind, then CPU overhead is going to be higher than
an uncompressed stream. Cached disk writes are normally going to be faster
than network writes, unless you have a fiber backbone or dedicated gigabit
link. I can't give benchmarks for any of the integration I've done here, but
I can say that:

1) XML is really wasteful all-around, but it can make your data considerably
more portable.
2) SQL is a norm these days and some servers optimize on the query language
and storage mechanism relating to it. MySQL is quite fast, in my limited
experience. I can't afford to play with MS SQL Server. SQL implementations
in MV may still leave a lot to be desired, though.
3) ASCII data from MV can be highly compressed, but once again there's the
CPU usage. Raw/compressed ASCII is extremely portable, if the means and will
are there to implement a custom communication protocol. (see my unfinished
RFC for a stepping stone [http://mvdevcentral.com/MV-RFC.txt])

 Some people may think I'm wierd, but I'm quite fond of SMTP services for
large-block data transferring. It's not exactly real-time bi-directional, so
I'm not sure if it fits your question. You decide. MTA servers like Postfix
were written with efficiency in mind and have built-in routing logic and
access control(mail boxes and aliases). A pop client can easily be written
in most BASIC flavors, or a CLI client can be downloaded for free, which you
can use to obtain new mail. MIME envelopes don't have to always contain
text, photos, and HTML. They can contain a compressed image of an entire
file's worth of MV data(within mail storage limitations) or the last 5
minute's transactional changes.

Food for thought, even though I didn't exactly spell out a solution.

Since the question as defined in the sentence below is pretty generic 
I'll respond in kind. Sockets. Inter process communication across 
disparate platforms and applications is just what they were made for. 
Low overhead, high throughput, and completely neutral as to data format.

Re: [U2] curious EQUATE issue - SOLVED Just want to know if anyone understands WHY?

2007-10-23 Thread Rex Gozar

Allen,

In your example, you use a variable in an EQUATE statement.  This 
references the variable's pointer, not its value.  So the code:


TEMP = CHANGE('A.B.D.M.S.V','.',@VM)
EQU VALID.CC.TYPES TO TEMP
TEMP = "SOMETHINGELSE"   ;* change TEMP's value
DISPLAY VALID.CC.TYPES

will display "SOMETHINGELSE", not the valid cc types as intended.

Re: [U2] ODBC error

2007-10-23 Thread Jeff Schasny
Tried that. Same error. I'm also getting the same error on the Sales & 
Service demo accounts which are installed activated and updated.

The truly strange part is that the ODBC configuration test in ODBC setup 
insists that the configuration is OK.

I just downloaded the free WinSQL client program and it connects just 
fine so this may be an Office 2003/old UV PE/old ODBC client issue. My 
other computer which connects just fine is running Office 2000.

I suppose I should get the latest UV PE version and associated clients 
and try that. Sounds like a plan.

If you did that, in that order, then the answer's simple. You need to

Let's start with the basics:
1) What version of the UV/ODBC driver are you using to "push" the data
from SQL Server into UV?
2) UV version and OS platform
3) Not really applicable in this particular issue, but: if on UNIX
platform: what ODBC driver manager are using and the version? Have you
re-linked UV with the ODBC driver manager?
4) have you ever had this work before?
5) have you successfully connected to UV from SQL server, if so - at
what point does it fail?
