U2 Gang I am having a problem of universe (or linux) adding an extra character when I write a file out. I have tried creating a file two different ways, using WRITESEQ and WRITE to a type 19 file.
Here is the code... WRITE DEPOSIT.REQUEST ON SWITCH.FILE,'nashbar.deposit.4' or OPENSEQ "/usr1/BN.TEST/SWITCH-FILE/nashbar.deposit.4" TO DATA.FILE WEOFSEQ DATA.FILE END ELSE CREATE DATA.FILE ELSE CRT "CAN'T CREATE" END END WRITESEQ DEPOSIT.REQUEST ON DATA.FILE ELSE CRT "DIDN'T WRITE" Before the write, I do a CRT "A LENGTH = ":LEN(DEPOSIT.REQUEST) and the length is coming out at 616. When I look at it in Linux, it is showing a size of 617. [EMAIL PROTECTED] SWITCH-FILE]$ ls -l nashbar.deposit.4 -rw-rw---- 1 mc users 617 Aug 1 16:24 nashbar.deposit.4 [EMAIL PROTECTED] SWITCH-FILE]$ wc nashbar.deposit.4 1 14 617 nashbar.deposit.4 Any ideas if the culprit is Linux or Universe adding the extra character, what the extra character could be, and/or how to stop it from writing out, if possible. When I try to edit the filename within universe, I do not see any hidden or control characters. We are running Universe 10.0.9 and Linux 7.3 Thanks in advance Marc ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
