... in fact if you're building, you may be better off just using a
stringbuilder and generating the delimited string. If the UniDynArray is
wrapping a string that might explain why it seems slow. (.net strings
are immutable so changing strings is a bad idea).
on the server the string manipulations are highly optimised using
various hidden pointers and hints.

Do you need to send an actual UniDynArray or the underlying data in a
dynamic array format? IIIRC the UniSubroutine arguments are overloaded
to use strings: and a dynamic array (encapsulated in a UniDynArray) is
actually a delimited string. Fields separated by \xFe, values by \xFD,
text encoding is 8 bit ansi so get the TextEncoding from page 1252.
Now I dont know what the UniDynArray does internally to manage data
but I have found it slow, and often better to go to the underlying
string and parse or manipulate it directly e.g. using a
Liststring.AddRange( myArray.StringValue.Split('\xFd'));
AFAIK the only reason the UniDynArray is constructed from the
UniSession is because it needs to get any NLS mappings from the server
(anyone know better?) and certainly the older COM implementation of
UniObjects did not need a session to create a dynamic array, so you
could probably just simulate that and ignore the parenting UniSession.
oh and be careful about insert, you probably need replace in most
cases. that will replace the content of an existing or non-existing
element.

Hmm my Business logic sends data to Data Layer then data layer talks

test is this DataLayer Calls to pick to check whether it converts
complex objects to UniDynArrays correctly.
So How do you abstract UniSession out? Sproc coming from pick side
(which I have no control over) require me to send UniDynArray.
What I want is to send user data to a UniDynArray. I have already
interfaced UniDynArray insert methods but I can't see how I could
return a UniDynArray without a UniSession. Is there a way you could
fake UniSession for unit testing purposes?

I think we're actually talking the same thing: a separation between
the business logic and the client.
Mocking the business logic calls so they don't touch the server, and
separately unit testing the server routines so you know they will
work when they will be hit.
And I'm a believer in unit tests, or at least the discipline they
enforce - learned the hard way - and as a platform for integration
testing. Without automated testing I haven't got the resources to do
a full integration test for every release. Though not necessarily
going as far as TDD yet.

would it be better to construct a higher level wrapper for your
business
functions and mock those? the UO libraries are quite low level: its
a bit
like mocking ado.net rather than your db calls.
From: Ravindranath
Thanks for the reply. I am trying to do higher level wrappers to
hide
those UniObject stuff but the problem is in order to to get
UniDynArray it
has to have UniSession. [snip]
Brian, I was going to suggest the same thing. But this is one of the
differences between unit testing an application and mocking, which
will allow a unit test to run completely in test mode without
actually calling to the server within the application code. Ravi
could abstract his code out for the test but that very process could
be considered an invalidation of the test.
Despite the latest craze around unit testing and the entire industry
that it's spawned, I still find applications I use to be as crappy as
they've always been, so I'm not as enamored with unit tests or
mocking as many others. When working on a GUI project I try to get
the BASIC app developers to handle everything there while I
intentionally remain ignorant of their inner processes. Once my
clients get the hang of this they really enjoy the process - the
BASIC developers

Re: [U2] CSV to Array
I've done this in the past by doing this: SWAP DQUOTE WITH @AM Now, in theory, every EVEN attribute is a 'quoted' string - don't touch the commas Every ODD attribute is a 'non-quoted' string... Double check me here in case I've lost it... but this should work ... seems this would be faster as well on larger records. Only thing you'd have to test for -- if the first character is a doublequote, we will have a blank first attribute and should not -- but that could be tested in the END ELSE section (IF XXX = 1 THEN IF DATASTRING[1,1] = 1 THEN CONTINUE) DATASTRING = 'A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L NEWSTRING = SWAP '' WITH @AM IN DATASTRING AMCNT = DCOUNT(DATASTRING,@AM) FOR XXX = 1 TO AMCNT IF MOD(AMCNT,2) = 0 THEN NEWSTRING := @AM: DATASTRINGXXX END ELSE DATAROW = NEWSTRINGXXX SWAP ',' WITH @AM IN DATAROW NEWSTRING := @AM:DATAROW NEWSTRING-1 = DATAROW END NEXT XXX -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Wjhonson Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2012 4:11 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] CSV to Array Rex Gozar uploaded this code, and someone (perhaps him) corrected it, but there's a redundancy here.
