RE: [U2] UV FILEINFO( Fvar, FINFO$HDRLAYOUT ) gone at 10.1, 10.2?
Was FINFO$HDRLAYOUT *ever* documented in the manuals? I only learned about it on this list, a post by Glenn Herbert after he'd implemented it. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] UV FILEINFO( Fvar, FINFO$HDRLAYOUT ) gone at 10.1, 10.2?
Thank-you all for checking this for me. Existing 10.0 functionality is preserved at 10.1 & 10.2. It's a "sin of omission" in the documentation. I suspected that, since one of the footers were wrong on those pages on the 10.2 documentation, too. Somebody messed up editing. And I had not heard of any file structure changes, so why would they stop backward compatibility? I will use it with impunity. Thanks again. __ Dear [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have cc'd you so that you can forward this to whoever handles the documentation.

RE: [U2] UV FILEINFO( Fvar, FINFO$HDRLAYOUT ) gone at 10.1, 10.2?
After 10.0, does UNIVERSE.INCLUDE FILEINFO.H still have EQUATE FINFO$HDRLAYOUT TO 99 followed by a section of FH$... equates? The documentation, by a sin of omission, suggests otherwise. The FILEINFO.H file in UV 10.2 appears to be the same as 10.0.8 except with the addition of FINFO$ENCINFO for ecryption. The FH$... stuff is all the same. >From the 10.2 file: 0054: EQUATE FINFO$HDRLAYOUTto 99 ;* Special key to retrieve hdr layout --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
