Re: [UD] 8 Bite Integers

I work the algorithm with 8 bit blocks, so that bit 1 in the 32 bit integer

The problem was it was using signed 64 bit integers everywhere except in 
these functions which seem to use 32 bit integers, as an example program on 
unidata:

ININT=2147483648
CRT "ININT = ":ININT
CRT "BITAND(ININT, 1) = ":BITAND(ININT, 1)
CRT "BITAND(ININT, 2^31 -1) = ":BITAND(ININT, 2147483647)
CRT "BITAND(ININT, 2 ^31) = ":BITAND(ININT, 2147483648)
:TEST
ININT = 2147483648  // = 2 ^ 31
BITAND(ININT, 1) = 1// should be 0
BITAND(ININT, 2^31 -1) = 2147483647   // should be 0
BITAND(ININT, 2 ^31) = 2147483647  // should be 2^32
In your program you have BITAND(ININT, 255) to strip out the smallest byte 
which will work if and only if ININT < 2^31

I probably should report this to ibm support, but ibm "outsourced" our 
support contract recently to a third party and i am very nervous about 
calling them up:

This syntax will still work for ftp after patch 832894 is installed. The
patch was to bring IE into line with rfc1738 which specifically excludes
user:pass from HTTP URLs.

Have you tried using the bizarrely named "HTML" process? In SBClient GUI
mode it opens IE and passes it the URI without giving you a Windows command
prompt. eg. HTML,gopher://ukcc.uky.edu/

If you can link or import the dumpfile to Access then use the Query tool
(wizard thing) to build an update query, you should be right. Unless you are
doing something other than overwriting based on the primary key, you
shouldn't need any code really.

If you were to import the whole table from UV to Access you can use the New
Query/Find Unmatched wizard to find differences.

Hope that helps,
Stuart

is there any reason you can't use ODBC or OLEDB and just
issue an update statement?  that would seem the most direct
route.  this link has an example of the connection string
to use for access:

http://www.asp101.com/tips/index.asp?id=98

and here's a vbscript example that inserts a bunch of rows.
you would want to loop over your flat file reading a line at
a time, issuing updates like:

sql = "update mytable set fieldx = '" & valuex & "' where"
sql = sql & " primarykey = '" & mykey & "'"
con.execute(sql)


UID = "system1"
PWD = "***"
Service = "marin"

Set oAux = CreateObject("Sys1Aux.CAux")
Set Con = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
Con.Open( "PROVIDER=MSDAORA;DATA SOURCE=" & Service & ";USER ID=" & UID &
";PASSWORD=" & PWD)

for i = 1 to 1
sql="insert into trin_temp values ('" & i & "','" & GUIDGen(oAux) &
"')"
wscript.echo sql
con.execute (sql)
next

Function GUIDGen(Aux)
Dim sGUID
sGuid = Aux.GuidGen
' Get rid of the cute curly stuff
sGUID = Mid(sGUID, 2, Len(sGUID) - 2)
GUIDGen = sGUID
End Function

Re: VB primer help ?

2004-03-04 Thread FFT2001
In a universe database I have a file Customers.
In an Access database I have some of the fields of that same file as well, populated 
from the source universe file via a flat file transport and import.

Now however I need to just update those rows that have changed.
So in Universe I already have a way (I think) to find just what's changed and make a 
flat file.  So now I want to just load those changes to the Access database.

So I figured out how to open a macro and played around with the VB language somewhat 
but I wonder if someone could give me a few lines of help.

I can already open the flat file in VB and read a line out of it.  I can also open the 
access database in VB and read a row/field out of that.  I figured that out so far.

The flat file will have as its first field the primary key which is already setup to 
match between the uv and access files.  So what I want to do is select the row with 
that key, which I already know how to do.  But the part I'm getting stuck on is how 
exactly do you do the update?

I tried something like this
file!field = newvalue
file.update

and it complains along the lines of "that process cannot do that function" or 
something like that.

Maybe one of you has a trivial example of updating a row in a VB macro?  All the 
examples I can find are doing it using a macro EXTERNAL to the database, when the one 
I'm using is run from inside the project... did that make sense? 

Anyway...

RE: Eclipse

2004-03-04 Thread Ross Ferris
Chuck,

Whilst on 1 hand I tend to agree, I think that anything that aids in the visualization 
of a process is useful.

I've read history books that talk about an archaic art form called "flowcharting", 
though I believe the practitioners are all but extinct, even though they were prolific.

UML is much more - comes back to how you use it. Horses for courses, and your mileage 
may vary.

That is because UV (and I presumed UD) work on two's complement integers, so
the top bit flips you between a positive and a negative integer. This is why
I work the algorithm with 8 bit blocks, so that bit 1 in the 32 bit integer
is never 1 and so BITAND works as expected.

Not that I actually tested the code :)

Hi Ross,
I'm interested in all of the above but in the case of Eclipse, just the

It's very cool, have you seen it? It should be simple to create a plug-in
for it for U2.
For those who aren't familiar with Eclipse (www.eclipse.org), it's a
development framework (IDE) "for nothing in particular". That is, it is
adaptable to a range of different development tools, like an open source
version of Visual Studio (but, as it's users say, much better).
It was originally written by IBM and donated to the open source community.
You can create "plug-ins" for it for whichever particular languages or

you work with, the tools should then integrate. Obviously alot of work has
been done using it in the Java & WebSphere Studio realm but Eclipse
shouldn't be confused with just those tools. One should, in theory, be able
to use it to create MV schemas, workflows etc and then generate the
database
& code from it or reverse engineer existing MV DBs... maybe.
So, as for using Eclipse to create web services or stuff with Java,
Rational
or WebSphere, that's a possibility but at this stage I'm just interested in
it as a potentially very cool development platform for U2.
I'm interested to hear from anyone who has experience with Eclipse and

I must admit to being a little curious as to how the data is being

Fawaz,

>We have to test whether this will work with negative numbers.
You need to find out how informix expects you to represent a negative
number. Most likely 2s complement.

For two's complement negatives, you need to invert the bit pattern and add
1. I think this will work ...

 MAKE8BYTE:
 * Initialise output as 0
 OUTINT = STR(CHAR(0), 8)

CARRY = @TRUE
IF ININT LT 0 THEN
NEGATIVE = @TRUE
ININT = ABS(ININT)
END ELSE
NEGATIVE = @FALSE
END
 FOR I = 1 TO 7
 * Get lowest 8bits
 LOWESTBYTE = BITAND(ININT, 255)

IF NEGATIVE THEN
IF CARRY THEN
IF LOWESTBYTE LT 255 THEN
CARRY = @FALSE
LOWESTBYTE = BITAND(BITNOT(LOWESTBYTE), 255) + 1
END
END ELSE
LOWESTBYTE = BITAND(BITNOT(LOWESTBYTE), 255)
END
END

 * Convert this to a byte representation and  place it in the output
integer
 OUTINT[8-I, 1] = CHAR(LOWESTBYTE)
 * Remove the lowest byte 8bits from the
 integer
 ININT = INT(ININT/256)
 NEXT I

* Top bit is sign bit, so only work on lowest 7 bits, but when doing
inversion, still invert top bit
LOWEST7 = BITAND(ININT, 127)
IF NEGATIVE THEN
IF CARRY THEN
IF LOWEST7 LT 127 THEN
CARRY = @FALSE
LOWEST7 = BITAND(BITNOT(LOWEST7), 255) + 1
END
END ELSE
LOWEST7 = BITAND(BITNOT(LOWEST7), 255)
END
END

OUTINT[1, 1] = CHAR(LOWEST7)
 RETURN

Re: Eclipse

Stuart,

I saw an IBM presentation on Eclipse in 2002 and thought the same as you.
Trouble is I am not a Java programmer and my prefferred editor is vi (which
I wouldn't change for all the good things in the far off place).

But as a platform for U2 tools, I can't think of a better spot than open
source eclipse.

RE: Eclipse

2004-03-04 Thread Stuart Boydell
> Is your interest more in "Web Services", or "Eclipse/Java" ?

Hi Ross,
I'm interested in all of the above but in the case of Eclipse, just the IDE.
It's very cool, have you seen it? It should be simple to create a plug-in
for it for U2.

For those who aren't familiar with Eclipse (www.eclipse.org), it's a
development framework (IDE) "for nothing in particular". That is, it is
adaptable to a range of different development tools, like an open source
version of Visual Studio (but, as it's users say, much better).

It was originally written by IBM and donated to the open source community.
You can create "plug-ins" for it for whichever particular languages or tools
you work with, the tools should then integrate. Obviously alot of work has
been done using it in the Java & WebSphere Studio realm but Eclipse
shouldn't be confused with just those tools. One should, in theory, be able
to use it to create MV schemas, workflows etc and then generate the database
& code from it or reverse engineer existing MV DBs... maybe.

So, as for using Eclipse to create web services or stuff with Java, Rational
or WebSphere, that's a possibility but at this stage I'm just interested in
it as a potentially very cool development platform for U2.

I'm interested to hear from anyone who has experience with Eclipse and their
views on its aplicability to the U2 environment.

Cheers,
Stuart

As long as a custom interface with sockets is on the table, I'm very happy
using Catalyst SocketTools which support Clarion: www.catalyst.com.  I agree
that HTTP is a good generic interface, though that may depend on which side
is client or server.  Some of our components are based on using MV as an
HTTP client to an HTTP Server (all written by myself using Catalyst toolsand
Pick BASIC) where the server is embedded in other application-oriented
components to do "real work".  It may work with Clarion code, I haven't
checked yet.  This technology will be offered to U2 sites soon.  Inquiries
welcome.

Do you mean 8bit or 8byte?

For an 8 bit integer you need to output CHAR(n) where n is a number between
0 and 255.

For an 8 byte (64 bit) integer you would need to do something like this. I
aplogise if this isn't correct UD code, I usually work on UV. I am assuming
that the output integer is in MSB order and that the bits of each byte are
in MSb order.

ININT = 1145689
GOSUB MAKE8BYTE

STOP

MAKE8BYTE:
* Initialise output as 0
OUTINT = STR(CHAR(0), 8)

FOR I = 1 TO 8
* Get lowest 8bits
LOWESTBYTE = BITAND(ININT, 255)
* Convert this to a byte representation and place it in the output
integer
OUTINT[8-I, 1] = CHAR(LOWESTBYTE)
* Remove the lowest byte 8bits from the integer
ININT = INT(ININT/256)
NEXT I
RETURN

Hi Glenn,

you could use ODBC (erk) but I believe that sockets will be the simplest
answer.
Depending on the version of Clarion you may have to buy sockets libraries
(see www.capesoft.com).

One of my good friends is a clarion programmer and I talked him through
using sockets to integrate apache/tomcat with Clarion.

He was using Clarion 5/6 not Clarion/ASP but I presume it is still the same.

If you go down this route, I suggest you use HTTP as a base protocol - saves
reinventing that part of the wheel.

I don't know of a UV function that does this, but you can use find at 
the unix level to get a list of spooler numbers for a particular user. 
This will put all spooler file names for a user into an array:

EXECUTE 'SH -c "find /usr/spool/uv -user ':@LOGNAME:'"', OUT > SPOOL.ARR

Assuming the above path is where the UV spooler files reside on your 
system, the following will give you the UV spooler number from the file 
name:

SPOOL.NO = FIELD(SPOOL.ARR,'/',5)[3,5]

Finding the most recent one could be kind of a pain if you have frequent 
deletion of spooler files.  Otherwise you could just assume the highest 
numbered one is the most recent.  Capturing output from ls -l on each 
filename will give you the time/date last modified.

Brower based terminal emulator

2004-03-04 Thread Vance Dailey
We are considering running Linux on our user desktops and I am looking for a
recommendation for a terminal emulation solution. One possibility is to find
a terminal emulation program which runs locally on each desktop under Linux.
A second possibility is to setup a server and use a web browser (such as
Mozilla or FireFox) on the user desktops to access the applications. Ideally
the solution will work on both Windows and Linux desktops given that some
desktops will likely have to remain Windows based. We run Universe 9.6 and
currently use a mix of Dynamic Connect and Wintegrate 4. Our current
emulation is Wyse 60.

I look forward to hearing about any good or bad experiences anyone has had.

Thanks,

RE: [UD] 8 Bite Integers

Hi Fawaz,

It really shouldn't matter. You should be able to write the data out to
the flatfile and have it appear "100.00" or "-100.00" and the load
programs (onpload, High Performance Loader etc.) will just convert
according to the schema that you have defined for that table.

Can you give an example of a problem field?

RE: [UD] 8 Bite Integers

2004-03-04 Thread Pingilley, Ron
If the number's an integer, how about using 

HEX.STRING = DTX(var)

to get a hexadecimal equivalent of the number in question.  Fill on the left
with zeros to 16 characters (8 bytes worth).  Then, pick off hex characters,
2 at a time (1 byte), then do:

INFORMIX.CHAR = CHAR(XTD(this.byte))

and concatenate them together into an 8-character (byte) string.

One gotcha I can think of is if any of the bytes end up as a system
delimiter that would cause problems in the middle of a flat file.  WRITESEQ
to a type-19 file or path may overcome some of those difficulties.

RE: [UD] 8 Bite Integers

2004-03-04 Thread Logan, David (SST - Adelaide)
Hi Fawaz,

Is this what you are looking for?

SEQ function

Syntax
SEQ (expression)

Description

Use the SEQ function to convert an ASCII character to its numeric string
equivalent. Expression evaluates to the ASCII character to be converted.
If expression
evaluates to the null value, null is returned.

The SEQ function is the inverse of the CHAR function.

In NLS mode, use the UNISEQ function to return Unicode values in the
range
x0080 through x00F8.

Using the SEQ function to convert a character outside its range results
in a
run-time message, and the return of an empty string.

For more information about these ranges, see the UniVerse NLS Guide.
PICK, IN2, and REALITY Flavors

In PICK, IN2, and REALITY flavors SEQ(" ") is 255 instead of 0. In IDEAL
and
INFORMATION flavor accounts, use the SEQ.255 option of the $OPTIONS
statement to cause SEQ(" ") to be interpreted as 255.

Example
G="T"
A=SEQ(G)
PRINT A, A+1
PRINT SEQ("G")
11-632 UniVerse BASIC
/productinfo/alldoc/UNIVERSE10/basic/Ch11
1/9/02

This is the program output:
84 85

depending on the unix system you're using you can setup a queue in the
spooler system that runs a script.  we do this on AIX and Linux
currently, but i've done it in the dim and distant past on HPUX.  things
are probably harder in uv than ud since ud just uses the underlying
spooler and doesn't get in the way as much.

the script can lookup the IP address/hostname of the user submitting the
job, and route the request to a share on that device using smbprint (got
to install samba on your server, but if you haven't done that go do it
now - samba rules!).  i add a queue for each user since our share names
are all different, but if you setup the same share on every pc you
should be able to use one queue.

e.g. for AIX (this uses a static hostname/sharename mapping, but you get
the idea):

sunset /etc> cat /etc/qconfig
[snip]
lp46:
   device = p46
   up = TRUE
   discipline = sjn
p46:
   backend = /usr/local/bin/winprint sprucetree EPSON850
lp47:
   device = p47
   up = TRUE
   discipline = sjn
p47:
   backend = /usr/local/bin/winprint balsam hp


sunset /etc> cat /usr/local/bin/winprint
#!/bin/sh

# This is a modification of the samba provided smbprint script
# changed to work under AIX as the backend for a queue. It does
# not read a config file.
#
# Variables below define the server and service. They are

Re: [UV] Ever wondered how something works...

2004-03-04 Thread Scott Richardson
Proving yet once again, your actual VOC file entries may vary - greatly!

Hence, why it's always important to periodically check out your VOC file,
or MD, and find out (& understand) what actually is in there, and why.

Customizations, or legacy leftovers, may no longer work if the account,
or application, has migrated between platforms and environments, or they
may just work by chance. Got to be careful though - and ensure the
application doesn't expect some custom item to be in your VOC/MD that
you think may not be required, only to find it is required for "something"
or
other to happen, or work.

When in doubt - consult the documentation! (Or write the documentation
yourself for those non-standard custom entries - so others how may tread
after you have some reasonable clue. ;^)

I know Prime INFORMATION used to have commands to help you go
through entire ACCOUNTS, and VOC files, and help identify other than
standard entries & items, (Clean.Account and VVOC, maybe?). Can't
recall if these migrated to UniVerse - but a quick consult of the
documentation should provide insight to these things as well.

HTH.

I don't know of a UV function that does this, but you can use find at 
the unix level to get a list of spooler numbers for a particular user. 
This will put all spooler file names for a user into an array:

EXECUTE 'SH -c "find /usr/spool/uv -user ':@LOGNAME:'"', OUT > SPOOL.ARR

Assuming the above path is where the UV spooler files reside on your 
system, the following will give you the UV spooler number from the file 
name:

SPOOL.NO = FIELD(SPOOL.ARR,'/',5)[3,5]

Finding the most recent one could be kind of a pain if you have frequent 
deletion of spooler files.  Otherwise you could just assume the highest 
numbered one is the most recent.  Capturing output from ls -l on each 
filename will give you the time/date last modified.

Thanks for your mail. Here is my response.

You ARE opening the file, right?
Yes, I do.

Are there any entries in the errlog file?
When you say 'check the process at universe level', how are you checking it.
There was no errors in the uv errorlog. I check the process using

Is there ever case where any response is required by the program? Any

Yes, it is and also I have a Conditional DEBUG.

RE: Printing to "local" printer

Wol,

Thanks for the idea. Looks promising but we're on a Unix server. Is there a
way to refer to the local printers across operating systems? My SETPTR
documentation refers to mode 2 and the DEVICE setting as sending output to
the Unix special file. Can the shared printer be defined as a unix special
file without setting up a network print queue?

What I'd do ...

This is UV, but I got the impression that UD might well work the same
way ...

A lot of our printers, rather than saying "AT DEVICE" in the SETPTR
statement, say "AT \\windows\sharename". So each printer is set up on
the local pc to which it is attached, and the UV server knows nothing
about it at the Windows level (we have UV/NT).

Most of our users connect to our Unidata system via terminal emulation

We'd rather not set up print queues for all of these. Any ideas on how

We use Demand Solutions as well.  It works great with our stock packaging division, 
not so great with our custom packaging division.  The main reason for this is short 
life-cycle products in our custom packaging division.  Extremely short life-cycles 
mean little historical data to forecast future demand.  Once enough history gets in 
there for the history to meaningful, the product has reached end of life.  I don't 
know that a system has been invented yet to solve that problem though...

Re: [UV] Ever wondered how something works...

2004-03-04 Thread Glenn Herbert
The default behavior will be that upon completion of the command, ie 
incorrect syntax, correct working, etc, any active SELECT list will be 
cleared.  The 'K' entry in field 4 overrides that so that when the command 
exits any active SELECT will NOT be cleared.  This behavior is strictly 
flavor dependant and can be modified if you don't like it (though the next 
ACCOUNT.UPDATE will reset it).

Secondly, the 'S' option is usually used to pass a select list into an 
external executable, for example, things in the $UVHOME/bin directory.  So, 
for instance, FILE.STAT is actually $UVHOME/bin/file.stat.  From TCL you 
can use FILE.STAT with a select list;

SELECTFL
FILE.STAT
and this will dump out the info for all the files in the select list.  What 
actually happens is there is a bit of substitution.   The SELECTFL will 
generate a temp file with all the file names in it, i.e. 
UVTEMP/select01928aa.   The command built to run would then be:

$UVHOME/bin/file.stat -S /tmp/select01928aa (assuming UVTEMP == /tmp)

This is how we originally designed active select lists to be used with 
externals.  Back to the main point, once file.stat completes (or bombs out 
or whatever) the command executor will shutdown (or keep open) the SELECT 
list based upon the 'K' in field 4.

At 04:04 AM 03/04/2004, you wrote:
uv System Administration manual  chapter Adding Commands to the VOC File
says for  'V' entries  that field 4
K   -  Keep select list
S   -  Uses select list
Of course it doesn't bother with tiny details like  wich behavioiur is default
or  what effect these settings have when the program isn't 
found.  ..  hint, hint  IBM manual writers  ...  :^)

From experience (including from this thread) I'd say that the list is not 
kept unless there is a K.

Is your interest more in "Web Services", or "Eclipse/Java" ?

If the former, there may be other ways to achieve your goals - I suppose it then also 
depends on whether you are looking at simply consuming a web service, or publishing one

FWIW, Viságe 6.50 will have a facility to enable you to "publish" any Viságe function 
(read Basic Subroutine) as a web service - we can happily consume them now from the 
client  but as Dawn would point out, that doesn't count, because we "cheat" and

On our UV 10.0.8 on a Sun box there is no "L" VOC entry.  "LD" is someones

Subject: [UV] Ever wondered how something works...


One day, I stumbled across an interesting behavior; at TCL, if I type 'L',
it results in my current SELECT list being cleared. You get an error
message, but it does not seem to hurt anything. This is great, because I
hate typing in CLEARSELECT.

But ever since, I've been wondering what it's really doing. Turns out that
'L' is one of only two similar VOC entries, the other being 'LD'. It looks
like this:

0001: V
0002: L
0003: PR

The error message you get reads:

  Unable to create new process.  Will try again.
  Create Process failed (2).

This is on NT. IIRC, on unix the message is different. Anybody know what
this is doing, or if it is safe?

Absolutely right!  The definition is that termination of a command clears
any default select list  unless the K processor mode is set in the VOC
record.  Many years ago, I wrote a command whose whole job was to create a
select list.  Having come from the world of PI/open, it took me ages to
uncover why the list never seemed to be there.

Incidentally (Sorry Chuck, I'm at it again), I have come across one user who
thought CS was a shortform for CLEARSELECT and reported it as a bug that it
cleared the screen.

Re: [UV] Variable never assigned a value warning

2004-03-04 Thread Mark Johnson
Not to mention the infidel CLEAR statement that does the same thing, hides
errors.

I believe the practice of variable assignment at the top is a practice
brought over from other languages where all variables apparently need to be
defined up front with DIM statements and variable types. I support some QB &
VB code and don't think twice about introducing the variable mj late in the
program for a local test and not DIMming it at the front.

Come to think of it, those systems tend to have an implied CLEAR as from out
of nowhere, you could have PRINT A and the unassigned value of A would be
zero (it's a numeric variable). You could also PRINT A$ and get nothing
wrong. Hell, you even get the first 9 or 10 array elements without even
using a DIM to dimension. PRINT A$(6) would yield null as well without being
previously defined.

Perhaps the early defining of variables is a discipline that was taught but
not really required.

I shiver when i see the CLEAR statement when the program needs my
assistance. I relucantly comment it out while reviewing to see if that's the
cause of an unexpected value somewhere. More often than not, after compiling
and when run the first time with no CLEAR, I get distracted by some other
errmsgs unrelated to the problem at hand. I relegate that command to the
lazy category. I've never used it in all my years of MV.

my 2 cents.

You ARE opening the file, right?

Are there any entries in the errlog file?
When you say 'check the process at universe level', how are you checking it.

Is there ever case where any response is required by the program? Any

RE: [UV] Does anyone know how to

2004-03-04 Thread Anthony Youngman
Do you need to modify a document created by someone else? Or can you
just spit out a Word document from UV?

Some of our report programs generate rtf documents from scratch. It can
be fun getting the format right (we make extensive use of tables to put
stuff in the right place), and Word is not the most forgiving of formats
to use, but you might find this a better approach than faffing about
with replacing text (or not as the case may be).

I'll have to put my stuff up on Pickwiki at some point ...

A lot of our printers, rather than saying "AT DEVICE" in the SETPTR
