This kind of development environment is extremely complex and not for the faint of heart! Sure, you can create a single web service, or a single program, but when one starts working more with this technology it becomes clear that all kinds of experience is necessary in order to come close to optimizing any "solution". There are a myriad of complex structures usually required in this environment. Consequently, by the time one normally gets familiar with a technology, the technology changes and the learning cycle begins anew. This is completely contrary to the original concept of MV development, and to rational software development for that matter. There is a product called mv.NET which encapsulates a great deal of this "experience" into their product. It allows regular .NET developers, who are mostly unaware of an MV environment (so to speak), to work with an MV dbms. However, to work with an MV dbms, in a more "MV" way, one has to know about the MV infrastructure and how these "middleware" products interface with MV. Again, mv.NET is very useful for this. We have two different .NET web applications as part of our enterprise solution. One was written in C# in a more "object oriented" manner by .NET development consultants. This application took about a thousand hours (yes, that's 1,000 hours) to design, code, test, document, and deploy. The other was written by me in VB.NET. It's a more understandable structure, similar to an MV structure, where subroutines are either local or global depending on their need, variables are grouped the same way, pages are grouped logically depending on their function (instead of their OO structure), the dbms is used extensively to hold information, and many of the .NET tools, required to overcome basic design flaws, are not implemented. This application took 30 hours to design, code, test, document, and deploy in D3's FlashConnect (and it ran flawlessly for 24 months). It took about 150 hours to do the same in this .NET application (I also needed to pay a .NET consultant $5K to set up some unintelligible "objects" and structures within the application). This particular application is pretty easy to manage and is about 1/2 the complexity of the first, more "object oriented", .NET application referred to above (notice the cost differences). So, if you're just needing a quick solution to an immediate problem, working on this by yourself can work fine. If you need a more complex solution to a more complex problem, like building a "connection pool", you definitely need help. Even if you buy mv.NET to solve your connection pooling problems, you still need some help to install, configure, and implement the service. Hope this helps a little. :-) Bill >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of >Jonathan Lienhoop >Sent: Monday, August 27, 2007 12:38 PM >To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org >Subject: [U2] Learning Uniobjects.NET > >I am new to .NET and uniobjects for .net and have been given the task of >writing a web based program that can pull data out of our universe >database.

RE: [U2] Socket API problem
All of your suggestions are very good, the problem is that all of these solutions will introduce too much overhead. I know that a lot of the overhead is very, very minimal, but we cannot afford ANY overhead at all.

In this setup your inetd daemon (or service on windows) listens on your known port, when a request comes in the superserver starts a UV process to handle the incoming request (received on stdin so get the data with INPUT or GETS) send your response using print. This is slightly slower per request than prestarting all your phantoms but you only use as many licences as your peak load and if you have one of the more advanced inetd versions you can limit the maximum number of simultaneous requests (other requests will be queued by inetd). I have implemented a HTTP server using this setup and other than the uv licensing cost it works well. regards, Craig --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

[U2] Socket API problem
Hello All, We are currently stuck at version 10.1 of Universe because IBM has changed what causes a UV license to be consumed. In versions 10.1 on older versions, phantom processes do not require a separate universe license. As of version 10.2, this is no longer the case. Phantom processes will require a user license in order to run. This is a problem for us, because we currently run thousands of phantom processes to process transactions, real-time. Now you may say, well it is only fair that you should have to pay for each of these processes because they are essentially the same thing as a user session. We are interacting with the data through these phantoms. The reason we have to run so many processes is because of how Universe has implemented the socket API. Here is how I'm hoping someone on the list might be able to help me, or correct me on my understanding of how the socket API works. If my understanding is correct, the universe socket API does not allow the listener to pass of the socket connection to another process for processing and response. The process that is listening on a port and accepts the connection, is also the process that must answer. This is not typically how a socket service works. Typically, you have a process listening on a port, and when you receive a connection, the connection is passed off to another process for processing and response. So, unless my understanding of how this works is incorrect, we have to run so many phantoms because the Universe socket API is not set up to handle multiple connections on a single port. We actually have an F5 load balancer that accepts the connections on a single port and passes it off to one of the many phantoms that is listening on a unique port. I have two questions: 1. Is there anyone out there that is in the same boat we are? Is anyone else stuck on version 10.1 or older because they cannot afford to upgrade to 10.2 because of the licensing requirements? 2. Is my understanding of how the universe socket API works correct? If so, has anyone come up with a way around this limitation? Keep in mind, we currently process 95% of our transactions in 1/10th of a second.

RE: [U2] UniData 7.1 vs. MS SQL 2005 performance
Yeah, I played around with it, and the overhead that is added is typically a couple hundred milliseconds. That is not much, but we typically get responses from our existing processes in .005 seconds, those couple hundred milliseconds make a huge difference.

RE: [U2] UniData 7.1 vs. MS SQL 2005 performance
On one hand, if the purpose of exposing this data is for internal consumption only, then some sort of proprietary format would be perfectly acceptable. In fact, we are using a sort of proprietary format for communication. The problem with this approach is that when you begin dealing with outside organizations, your proprietary way of communicating is no longer that clever. This is when using a standard protocol, such as SOAP, really has value. To me, this is part of the problem that we have in the MV world. We look at how things are being done elsewhere and say, "Pick does it better, we aren't going to do that." The problem with this approach is that everyone else is adopting these standards and using them. We are going to be left further behind if we don't start using some of the technologies available to us. On an unrelated note, we interviewed a .Net developer that worked for a company that also had a UniData shop in house. He was telling us about this custom interface they used in communcations. He didn't know anything about it's origins, except that you had variable length records delimited by "funny" looking characters. I asked him if the characters were ASCII 253, 254 and 255 characters, and he said in fact that he thought they were. The moral of the story, not really sure, I just thought it was kind of funny.

I agree. Trying to compare a relational database (such as SQL Server) and a post-relational database (such as UniData) is like trying to compare apples and oranges.

Most performance benchmarks are done on the basis of Simple transactions per second. However where U2 realy bolts ahead is in complex transactions per second. In the realworld we have complex transactions, not always the simple Dr,Cr of a general ledger. A transaction will often involve various business rules and accessing multiple files for checks and process tables. With most RDBMS as the complexity increases, the more likely they will have to resort to processing outside of the database which causes a performance hit. With U2, the processing remains inside the database where basic code resides. Hence before doing performance benchmarking, make sure that the benchmarking represents the business process.

RE: [U2] UO.Net & Connection Pooling
First question, do you have a reference to the UODOTNET assembly in your web site or application? I'm not familiar with the connection pooling in UO.NET, but I do know you need to have a reference to the assembly in your project. You also need to define the config section in your config file. An example is the following from the Enterprise Library application blocks: So you should have something similar at the top of your config file that would look like this: If you can find this info, your application will recognize this custom configuration section.

I'm using mv.NET, which uses UO.NET as a connection method. I've purchased a "Connection Pooling" license for UD v7.1.9 (Windows). According to the documentation, "The following illustrates a configuration file for connection pooling. This configuration file is named either app.config or web.config." When I include this section of code into the .NET "web.config" file my project won't compile due to "" being an "Unrecognized configuration section."

I am starting a new venture (adventure) and have selected Cache', using their MV tools as well as their AJAX tools, for the platform. In my case, I have done a few talks here and there in the past couple of years, with my primary focus in two areas: MV and AJAX. It was shocking and delightful to see that there was a company spending a large amount of its R&D dollars on two primary projects during this time: MultiValue implementation and AJAX integration. So, I had to take a look. Their MUMPS technology (with objects added, just as they added object features to MultiValue BASIC) is renamed Cache' Object Script. It is at least as unimpressive at first glance to a non-MUMPS developer as Pick might be to a non-Pick developer. But they set up the MV implementation so that, in theory (I'm guessing there are exceptions), anywhere that you can write MUMPS code, you can now write DataBASIC (Cache' MultiValue BASIC). Very cool. Cache' classes can be developed, looking similar to Java and other object languages, that generate MultiValue dictionaries. These classes then work with the rest of their AJAX implementation (named Zen). Any Cache' class with methods in it can have those methods written in MultiValue BASIC. As a sometimes Java developer, it is pretty interesting to see this blend of OOP and MV. Feel free to ask me any questions about the product or my decision on this, if desired, especially as we get into more hands-on with the product this summer (the devil is in the details and all). Of course, there will always be a place in my heart for U2, but I had to make the best decision for the new software we will be building and InterSystems with their Cache' offering that now includes MultiValue just "feels" more like the future, with their 24-7 approach, scalability etc. There was really good energy at the conference and in discussions with key Intersystems folks. I like the U2 group too, but they do not have the same level of corporate-wide backing for their MV product that Cache' has, so the innovations are not in the same place either.

To all intents and purposes there is NO difference between C# and VB.net. There was at earlier releases - whether deliberate marketing or not, at 1.0 and 1.1 some aspects of C# did perform better. That's no longer the case with 2.0 and a lot of total rubbish is talked about the different capabilities - usually by C# pros wishing to defend their geekiness and higher fees. But then, 'twas always thus with C++. In fact, that discussion is just another thing Microsoft have inherited from the Borland world when they appropriated Delphi for the design of .NET - all those Borland C++ guys (yes it was always guys) trying to pretend C++ was faster than Delphi. Wrong.. It's really just a matter of personal style and preference. I tend to use C# for my own projects and amusement and VB for onsite work - especially if the code will eventually be maintained and supported by someone else. It's just that little bit easier to read. I also prefer the VB syntax for purely IDE purposes - the intellisense works better when you type Dim MyVariable as New [and the drop down appears to give you the options ] as opposed to the C# [no context for the drop down to appear so you must remember the path yourself] System.bloody.long.namespace.path.to.this MyVariable = new [dropdown now finally appears for] System.bloody.long.namespace.path.to.this(); (As an aside, that's a bit of syntax I've always despised. Why not have a default constructor that doesn't need you to repeat the class name after new? How much time/typing would that save?) And the IDE makes a better job of linking event delegates in VB compared to C#. Passing var arguments is more clumsy in C# and annoying after VB. On the other hand, the syntax for generics fits more nicely with C#. Ya Pays Ya Money.. So essentially - if you want to show off use C#. If you want to produce code that people can follow, use VB.net. That's really the choice. At the library level they all work together. So you can always mix and match if you have a modular design. I've always done that with native Windows development - VB wrappers (for the look and feel) around Delphi components (to do the work) and occasional C++ libraries, drawing on the best skills of the developers I had at the time. People can get too hung up on the languages. What matters - always - is the design: you can produce crap in any language! I would learn both VB and C# anyway and widen your options - the real 'work' in learning .Net is about understanding the framework and design principles, and how Windows/GUI/Event oriented applications work anyway. After that, the syntax comes second.

Also the problem I described is inconsistent. For example. If I open a new telnet session to Universe and do simple Retrieve statement to output XML, the first attempt may give me the right result.

I didn't mean to suggest that you should use the DAO pattern, just that there are some examples of reading and writing scattered throughout the page that might help. :) I never finished that example, it doesn't even show how to deal with multivalued and mv-associated fields. :/ You'll probably also want to learn how to call subroutines from UOJ.

Last year I worked with a client who needed the same type of communication. We developed a couple of routines they could use to 'read/write' SqlServer with minimal interference with the Universe developers. It turned out faily well .. quick and error free. There really is no need to go to any 'external middleware' answer when all the tools are right there. It lowers maintenance as your developers don't need to learn anything new (although that IS always fun).

RE: [U2][UV] Universe and .NET
The reason that our current processes are so fast is that we read as much common data as humanly possible into memory at start-up so there is little overhead while the process is running. If I have to call a subroutine from .NET, that would actually slow processing down. I need to get the data into .NET's memory to do something similar.

On case by case basis, WRITE & other basic statements likely to be implicated in errors allow for ON ERROR clauses. Search for ON ERROR in the documentation pdf. I have a utility purpose subroutine that I stick in places like these ON ERROR clauses. The subroutine allows a text argument to be sent from the calling program & it also captures SYSTEM(9001) call stack info, then writes all that to a file, which is monitored.

RE: [U2] How to release locks (LIST.READU)
You can go to the UV account and do an UNLOCK. UNLOCK Use UNLOCK to clear file, group, and update record locks. You must be a UniVerse Administrator logged in to the UV account to execute UNLOCK. Syntax UNLOCK [NODE node] [USER user.number] [FILE pathname | [DEVICE device.number] [INODE i.node.number]] [GROUP group.address] [RECORD record.ID] {FILELOCK | GROUPLOCK | READULOCK | READLLOCK | ALL} Parameters The following table describes each parameter of the syntax. Parameter Description NODE node Restricts lock removal to the specified node. UNIX. This must be the network node number, which is the last part of the TCP/IP host number specified in the /etc/hosts file. Windows NT. If valid for Windows NT, the path of the hosts file is /Windows/System32/Drivers/etc/hosts where Windows is the Windows NT installation directory. On Windows NT systems, you can also use the LAN Manager node name. USER user.number Restricts lock removal to locks owned by the specified user. You can get the user number from the output of LIST.READU. FILE pathname Restricts lock removal to a file or device specified by the pathname. You cannot specify DEVICE or INODE clauses in an UNLOCK statement that uses the FILE clause. DEVICE device.number Restricts lock removal to a file or a device specified by the device number. UNLOCK Parameters 1-604 UniVerse User Reference /productinfo/alldoc/UNIVERSE10/userref/Ch1 1/8/02 Specify the lock type as one of the following: Description You can specify ID numbers (that is, the node number, device number, or record ID) in either decimal or hexadecimal format. Precede the number with 0x to specify it as hexadecimal. INODE i.node.number Restricts lock removal to a file or a device specified by the i-node number. GROUP group.address Restricts lock removal to the group specified by group.address. The group address appears in hexadecimal format on the LIST.READU report. RECORD record.ID Restricts lock removal to the record specified by the record ID. Lock Type Description FILELOCK Removes only file locks. GROUPLOCK Removes only group locks and update record locks associated with the group. READULOCK Removes only update record locks. READLLOCK Removes only shared record locks. ALL Removes all locks.

OK - it will compile, but the us1.HostPort = 7200 bit is doing absolutely nothing. The us1 returned by UniObjects.OpenSession is a new session with no connection to the us1 with HostPort = 7200.

This is exactly what I am getting. The process is stopped, but for whatever reason, UniVerse is not closing and cleaning up the port. The program in question has LOGTO statements in it, and I think that it is causing itself to get crossed up on the socket port.

If you look at your net stats, the socket in question is probably in a CLOSE_WAIT state. This is a subsystem status that says the remote has shutdown and it's waiting for the socket to close and cleanup. If the socket gets dumped improperly by the socket application, then the socket can be left in CLOSE_WAIT with no process attached to finish cleanup. The status will clear up, but it could take a long time. That all depends on the tcp_close_wait setup and whether or not the socket is setup with the SO_LINGER flag. If the socket's SO_REUSEADDR flag can be enabled using some kind of U2 "setsocketopt" function before you listen on it, then you can re-use the same socket address over and over again.

The problem that we are having is that the phantom seems to be keeping the subroutine in memory, so that if we have a change to it, the phantom process is not picking up the change. Is there any way that we can force the phantom process to remove the subroutine from memory when an update arrives and pick up the new version of the subroutine? Thanks.

RE: [U2][UV] - Keeping subroutines in memory
Yes, I had thought of doing this, but I was hoping there was some way to clear the subroutine from memory in the phantom, or force the phantom to pick the subroutine back up from the catalog space.

[U2][UV] - Keeping subroutines in memory
We have a phantom process running on several of our UniVerse servers that we use to do updates to various accounts. This process calls a subroutine that actually performs the updates. Before it calls this subroutine, it calls another subroutine to see if there are any updates for the update subroutine and applies the changes. The problem that we are having is that the phantom seems to be keeping the subroutine in memory, so that if we have a change to it, the phantom process is not picking up the change. Is there any way that we can force the phantom process to remove the subroutine from memory when an update arrives and pick up the new version of the subroutine? Thanks.

RE: [U2] Universe full screen editor
While in the ED editor, CTRL + SHIFT + 6 will insert an attribute mark, CTRL + ] will insert a multi-value mark and CTRL + \ will insert a sub-value mark.

You can make your changes using ED, as some other respondants have demonstrated, but if you don't want to learn ED incantations, you could copy your items to a type 1 file (similar to a DIR file in unidata) and use windows notepad/wordpad or good old DOS EDIT or whatever you have. Depending on the editor you choose, getting the value and subvalue marks into the item could be a problem, but I've always had luck using cut and paste on the marks that are already in the item, or you could use the windows ALT-0253 sequence (on the numeric keypad) to enter a value mark, and ALT-0252 to enter a sub-value, or you could fire up charmap (if it's installed) and cut and paste from that. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 07, 2005 1:14 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Universe full screen editor UV.VI FILE ITEM will allow you to use vi to edit the record.

I am new to the Unidata arena, and from what I am seeing, there is a lot to be learned to use it effectively. Our accounting system is built on Unidata (v 6.0). I have very little in the way of documentation, due to the fact, that the software company wants you to go through them to get anything done. This is a very expensive proposition to say the least. I am wondering what type of "getting started with Unidata" information is out there. If y'all have suggestions on resources that I can learn Unibasic that would be great. Thanks for the help.

RE: [U2] Universe account Name/ID
@WHO will tell you which account you are running on. OCONV("", "U50BB") will give you the PORT and Account.

I'm trying to find the simplest way to figure out which account a program is running in, within the program. Basically, between a development/testing account and the live account. I've got a number of ways to extrapolate where I am but I'm hoping that there is some system variable that has the current account info that I can directly access either at a TCL command or via a BASIC variable. Also, I need to be able to do this from both, an interactive session and from a phantom.
