I must say, I am using UD v7.2.7 on Windows 2008 R2, so this is the "latest and greatest" as far as UD is concerned. We're heavily using mv.NET (UO.NET) and UO through DesignBais (we do all administration through UniAdmin too). We have no problems with anything so don't know what the problem is.

I think I will contact support.  :-)

Thanks,

Bill

1. The version of the U2 server matters.  If the UniData there is legacy, there 
could be some impassable RPC hurdles.
2. If fortunate enough to be on Rocket maintenance, consider contacting Rocket.
3. We were on UV 10.1 before and could not RPC.  Migration to 10.3.6 came with 
some re-Cataloging pain.  Was the pain worth it?  At the time of pain, no.  
Now, yes.

Subject: Re: [U2] New Client Specifics

So, I went ahead and installed the BDT from the UD clients 7.2A file.
It installs a bunch of eclipse junk; which is fine, I guess.  Of course, when I thought of 
"updating" (help>  software updates>  find and
install) that fails miserably to update eclipse so maybe I shouldn't try that.

Next, of course, I figure I could create a U2 server which would give me a connection to a UD account.  How 
silly of me to think I could do something like that.  I mean, like right-click the "U2 Servers" 
entry in the U2 Resource window, click on "New U2 Server" then enter a name for the server and a 
host (I tried both a "hosts" entry and an IP address).
I selected UniData, clicked [Advanced], used the default info regarding RPC and added the 
complete path to the account where our BASIC code resides.  Changed the telnet port to 
the proper port our UD is listening on, clicked [Finished] then tried to connect.  
Naturally I entered the valid Windows User ID and Password but was informed: "The 
combination of user name and password provided is incorrect."  So, I guess using the 
administrators name and password isn't sufficient to work my way through step one of 
using this tool.  I guess this pretty much explains why these tools aren't always used.

Naturally, if I was to think about this some more I might suspect using Windows 
2008 R2 may be causing the problem, but who knows?
[grrrrrrrrrrrr].  So, I guess it's back to ignoring this environment and moving 
back the environment I have to dance with today.  :-(

Bill:

Do I have to load up some "crap" onto my client before I can run BDT?
Does it use UniObjects?  Would there be a problem if the timeout
period for the UniRPC daemon was reduced to 5 minutes (this seemed to
cause no end of grief to those using the previous incarnation of the
development tool, which we could never get working properly anyway)?

I have the most recent version of the UD "clients" software (v7.2A)
and didn't see any documentation regarding either installation or use
of the product.  Am I missing something or is it just for UV?

Thanks,

Going from a traditional editor (like EditPlus) to BDT is like going
from a propeller-plane to a jet.

Because I had some connectivity problems with UV 10.1, before I could
not get BDT to work.  Now with UV 10.3.6, BDT works.

For working code that I have imported into BDT, some lines show up
with warning flags.  Undefined variables get highlighted.  I can
right-click to compile and catalog.

In the end, code has fewer errors, debugged faster, compiled faster,
accomplished faster.

    More please.  In what way exactly is that?
