RE: GUI as nice as character-based
I disagree with a couple of points. For one, there is no reason that a character based app can not be written to validate data inputs just as efficiently as a GUI. Users can be forced to choose from a list of pre authorized values by a number of means. An assigned function key which brings up a box of options which can be highlighted and selected for example. Also, IMHO the primary usefulness of a GUI (lets face it folks, we're talking about the Microsoft Windows GUI) is the fact that so many people already know how to use it. Heck, even my technophobic 75 year old mother knows that Files is on the left side of the menu bar and Help is on the right. Employers can bring people in to an organization and be reasonably sure that they will be able to do some useful work on a computer system quickly because the look and feel of their GUI is a soft, cuddly, familiar face to just about everyone. Its not more efficient. It requires more resources. It increases the overall complexity of the application and therefore increases the probability of failures. Unfortunately, the bottom line is that users like it. Since we write software for users we need to use the GUI. -Original Message- From: Dawn M. Wolthuis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 9:19 AM Excellent point -- that is also my main issue with terminal emulations that look pretty. A GUI interface does more than look pretty -- it helps prohibit any invalid data from being entered. There are much fewer data entry fields in favor of point and click on drop downs and such. Of course, the point and click slows folks down. Software developers of packaged software have the issue of needing to make all of the data entry approaches look way cool and yet ensure that in those cases where there is still a need for fast data entry, the users will not reject the software. The primary need for GUI's that are clicky-clicky is handled well enough with a variety of tools and such applications can often function just fine within a web browser (using jsp or asp for example). It is always harder to add in new stuff than the remove the old and I'd like to see something that will let us remove any need for character-based, terminal emulation software from our production environments, without losing their great features that have kept us using them these many years.

RE: Uniobjects / php
If you want to play around with PHP interacting with the Universe
environment in an extremely simple way you can try the stuff below. Note
that I dont recommend this methodology for production systems but its a good
simple example.
The following stuff will execute any Universe command/cataloged program,
pass it data via the command line, and display the results. Assumptions:
You have a universe account setup as uvtest under your web root on a machine
running apache/php. The lister.html and lister.php files will reside in the
uvtest Universe account directory.
First create an html file (lister.html) containing a form to collect our
program name and any data to be passed to it. Here is my html:
html
head
title
Generic UV Process Runner
/title
/head
body bgcolor=white
center
h2Lets Run A Universe Process/h2
p
hr
form bgcolor=white name=aform action=lister.php method=post
table
tr
td
Program Name
td
input type=text name=name size=35
tr
td
Some Data
td
input type=text name=somedata size=35
/table
p
input type=submit value=Submit
/form
/body
/html
Now create our PHP file (lister.php):
html
head
titleUvtest/title
/head
body
?php
$name = $_POST[name];
$dat = $_POST[somedata];
$cmdstr = uv ;
$cmdstr .= $name;
$cmdstr .= ;
$cmdstr .= $dat;
exec($cmdstr,$returnedstuff,$retval);
foreach($returnedstuff as $oo) {
echo $oo br;
}
?
/body
/html
Point your browser to Http://localhost/uvtest/lister.html and happily
execute anything you can do from a UV command line. I first tested this
with LIST VOC SAMPLE 5 as the program name and no data entered. If you
construct programs which take command line input and output html code you
can pretty much create a whole application which uses lister.php as a
generic data mover.

RE: GUI as nice as character-based
My former employer Intuit Eclipse has successfully implemented a Java front end (Solar Eclipse... get it, Sun... Java... Solar, Arrgh) for their distribution ERP system. The nice part is that you can use any combibnation of GUI and character interface you like. For example, the guys in the warehouse can have old PC's with the Eclipse terminal emulator (which by the way allows a multi windowing charachter interface)installed while the accounting folks use the GUI or you can even run the terminal emulator for some things on the same PC as the Java GUI. This was all possible because the entire ERP system was VERY modular including a very smart INPUT routing used by every process requiring inputs from a user. Even so, the development of the java front end took over 2 years. -Original Message- From: Dawn M.

Saying Pick doesn't support advanced level computing is simply wrong, and so are a couple of your other claims. But I think we understand and can agree with your point that MV isn't mainstream. Pick-based DBMS products are very capable with regard to communications. We can connect an MV app to anything. Connectivity methods aren't always mainstream but the claims of little/NO support and not compatible are incorrect. Non-MV products incorporate tools that we can use just as easily. Remember that programming and connectivity are not natively done within most other DBMS environments, they use outside tools to connect into a DBMS too. So in a sense, because we have tools inside and outside of our environments, we have a bit more to work with than they do - that is, BASIC can be considered a built-on RAD language compared to the inadequacies of stored procedures.

Now, it's not a major problem as I'm only checking for 20 or so names, but as more and more people request to be removed (and we don't have access to the creation of the list). this could get quite slow over 50 or 60 thousand lines of checking. LIN is one line of the CSV file, the INDEX is checking for a last name a zip code and sometimes part of the address line. Any Ideas? Remember, we can't change the source of the file, it will always be a CSV, being read line by line KICK=0 BEGIN CASE CASE -1 KICK=1 BEGIN CASE CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 AND INDEX(LIN,..,1)#0 CASE -1 KICK=0 END CASE END CASE George Gallen Senior Programmer/Analyst Accounting/Data Division [EMAIL PROTECTED] ph:856.848.1000 Ext 220 SLACK Incorporated - An innovative information, education and management company http://www.slackinc.com ___ u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users ___ u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
