Rocket MultiValue

Hi, I have a routine that takes a data value, and then tries to determine what data type should be used when interfacing with other products (Excel in this case). The process I use is to (a) see if it is a number; then (b) ICONV the data value with various masks to see what is recognised. When I came to test standard QM format masks, I found that these got recognised as TIME values ... which I found surprising. For example: ICONV('8R', 'MT')  returns 28800  (8 hours)ICONV('8L', 'MT') returns 28800ICONV('8C', 'MT') returns 28800ICONV('12*R', 'MT') returns 43200 (12 hours)ICONV('12*R26', 'MT') returns 43226 (12 hours and 26 seconds) I question whether these are sensible return values for a time conversion. I could understand '8H' being returned as 28800, but not '8R', '8L', or '8C', and certainly not something like '12*R26'. i don't look at any of those values and think - that is a TIME value! Can someone from Rocket comment on this? QM 4.0.9 / Windows. Testing on QM 4.0.7 / Windows give

Hello, Accuterm 7.3.  This is probably a Windows 10 Pro (on a VM accessed via RDP) issue but it involves running Accuterm scripts.  This is Linux D3 via SSH. I have an scott.atsc file that does the D3 Linux login/logon for me and starts my scott.atcf session. When I double-click on that directly, all is good.... works from the desktop short-cut, and also from "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Atwin71\\scott.atcf", and from "Scott Ballinger > Documents > scott.atsc"  (I copied the .atcf and .atsc files from "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Atwin71\\" to "Scott Ballinger > Documents", although who knows where the "Desktop" or "Documents" folders actually are in the Windows "one-drive" universe (as in internet file-space, not UV)  anyway? So I dragged-and-dropped the desktop shortcut to the task bar and "pinned" it there. Now when I right-click on the taskbar AT icon I get a list of all the .atsc and atcf files I have ever touched.  If I pick the one on top (scott.atsc)  or the "recent" one, ev

Any one using the Windows ReFS file system for either UniData or UniVerse? What's your experience performance wise?------------------------------Christian BristowTSERocket Software IncWaltham MA US------------------------------

Just a heads up for anyone (like me !) who is not aware. Recent versions of D3 contain Accumath extended precision functions already loaded. I think in the distant past this package was an add-on, but now all the Basic callable functions are in dm,bp, or available directly as user exists. Using Accumath you can easily achieve the 15-16 digit precision of a Java double, or the higher precision of a BigDecimal. Seems to all work remarkable well.------------------------------Bryan Buchanan------------------------------

Rocket MultiValue Integration Server (MVIS) 2.1.0, available today, is a major release with significant new features and enhancements. To learn more about MVIS 2.1, please plan to join us on September 4th, for a product launch webinar. MVIS 2.1 Features and Highlights Power Modernization via the OpenAPI Standard OpenAPI 3.0 Support. OpenAPI 3.0 is the first major release since 2015, when Swagger was adopted as an open standard and transitioned to the OpenAPI Initiative. The 3.0 spec includes numerous changes including a simplified structure for increased reusability. You can find additional details in this blog post https://swagger.io/blog/news/whats-new-in-openapi-3-0/ Enhanced Integration with OpenAPI. In MVIS 1.3, we introduced the notion of Vanity URLs that provide limited support for top-down scenarios.

We're currently on UniVerse 12.1.1 and RHEL 7. As RHEL 7 is EOL - we'll need to upgrade to 8, and then update UniVerse to 12.2.1.2002 The team who will conduct the OS upgrade have asked if UniVerse will support a Leapp upgrade, and if UniVerse will support RHEL 8.6 specifically. Has anyone else been through this process? I only see mention of the major versions of RHEL in the support matrix, I'm assuming that it will work on 8.6 but it'd be great to get some confirmation!------------------------------Matthew WrightAnalystTomago Aluminium Co PTY Ltd.Tomago NSW AU------------------------------

It has become unacceptable to expect or enforce the need for a manual authorization at the end of installation or upgrade. With the  latest release of UniVerse we have also published a tech note article that covers a  Python script to Automatically License / Authorise / Authorize UniVerse and UniData. Search our knowledge for 'How-to-Automatically-Licence-Authorise-UniVerse-and-UniData' or article number '000054994'. Any updates I make to the script between releases will be done via the technote. I hope you find it useful. ------------------------------Jonathan Smith UniData ATSRocket Support------------------------------

Hello Everyone.  I am giving this a try and one thing that is throwing me for a loop is the server connection.  We have used the "BDT" tooling in Eclipse for a long time, and with that solution we could specify the servicename parameter from unirpcservices configuration.  There doesn't seem to be an option to do this within the configuration files for MV BASIC in VSCODE.   Can anyone tell me if there is an undocumented property for this?   For our environments here, we have the defcs/udcs entries set to 5 seconds timeout.  This causes the MV BASIC connection to almost immediately get disconnected.  We have alternate services defined with longer timeouts, which with UOJ, Eclipse BDT and UOPY connections we can choose this value.   Thanks in advance, Aaron------------------------------Aaron TitusSenior ArchitectF W Davison and Company Inc.

Good day, I am using Unidata 8.2 and building a web frontend to a Unidata application. What I'm trying to figure out is a good method for detecting console message such as Unassigned variables or Unopened file variables during the process. Yes, the messages are being displayed in the COMO, however so is a lot of other information, and I don't want to parse the COMO for console messages. I do want to report the messages back up to the user. Is there an EASY way to detect/trap those console messages? Some SYSTEM variable I can check?  Thank you for your time, Dan Duffek ------------------------------Daniel DuffekSoftware EngineerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

Hi allI reside in the UK and for our "sins" we still honor the European data format of DD/MM/YYYY. There is a conversion code which 'e'  which according to the D3 manual states: e Uses european date format regardless of current system default setting This is great, however, I discovered something rather disturbing and am wondering whether anyone (this side of the Atlantic) can see (a) if I'm doing something wrong OR (b) has uncovered this. BTW - I am aware of the set-date-eur option in a coldstart - which (in my case) I have not opted to have. See this code: *My_Date = '30/09/2022'*crt My_Dateb_date = '19997'crt b_datec = Oconv(b_date, 'D4/E')crt ccrt 'next 'd = Iconv(c, 'D4/E')crt dcrt ' and Done!' The results are as follows: 1999730/09/2022next and Done! Which is "disturbing" as the Iconv resolves to a NULL date! Any ideas (please) Thanks Stefano------------------------------Stefano GallottaManaging MemberSimply Red Open SystemsMilnerton ZA------------------------------

Trying to use some XML functionality and the doc's aren't very useful. But this is my first attempt trying to deal with XML on UniVerse and in general. The purpose is pretty straightforward, take XML feeds, break them down and write them to a UniVerse File. I started with writing a small program in BASIC to try to get familiar with the syntax and flow and utilize the XML functions available to me instead of creating my own parser. Getting unexplained error, basically having to do with the xml_handle or handler ? I'll attach results as well as the test file. I then tried to mimic the program below and get farther along, but not getting any data. A couple of points: 1) I've only mapped the first 4 items of the XML file and created those 4 items in the DICT (out of 25) Thanks for any assistance.....Plus, how/when is the data written to the UniVerse file. Is this where I process and write my own records after the READ (where I'm stalling now) ? Al Zyle ------------------------------Al Z

Found a new file in D3 that you need to keep an eye on: DM,ERRORS,END. This file gets an entry every time you END a phantom job from TCL. A friend of mine had a VME crash because there were over a million items in that file. If you END a lot of phantoms from TCL, you're probably headed in the same direction. Best solution is to turn off the logging to do that, you'll need to set up a config item in the DICT of the DM,ERRORS, file and fix a bug in one of our subroutines. The bug has been reported and will be fixed in a later release of D3. First the subroutine: DM,BP, END.SUB: You need to flip lines 63 and 64: 063 end064 if logit = 0 then outNoLog = 1 should be: 063  if logit = 0 then outNoLog = 1064 end Then COMPILE DM,BP, END.SUB (O Then create this item in the DICT DM,ERRORS, file:   config.end001002003 logging=off This will turn off logging. You can now do a CLEAR-FILE DM,ERRORS,END and get on with your life. ------------------------------Brian S. CramPrincipal Technical Support Eng

Hello,   I'm freshly exposed to UniVerse and would like connect to an instance running on my network (using UOPY).  Looking though the online API Documentation at uopy,  I am unable to find details on the parameters for the MV configuration (uopy.config) . The documentation assumes familiarity with UniVerse and its typical settings. Is there a document that covers configuration of connections over the network?  I continue to receive general error when connecting: ...ckages\\Python311\\site-packages\\uopy\\_session.py", line 319, in connect     raise UOError(ErrorCodes.UOE_UNKNOWN_ERROR)  uopy._uoerror.UOError: Error [-1] : Unexpected Error Any help would be appreciated.

We're having an ellusive error calling a BP from Java code. The Java code is this public synchronized String executeBncCommand(String command, UniSession us, String params) throws UniSubroutineException,UniSessionException { try { UniSubroutine uSub = null; uSub = us.subroutine("***ProgramName***", 3); uSub.setArg(0, command); uSub.setArg(1, params); uSub.setArg(2, ""); uSub.call(); return uSub.getArg(2).toString(); } catch (UniSubroutineException | UniSessionException e) { throw e; } } The BASIC lines that are crashing are these ones: * Devuelve el PID del usuario CASE COMANDO='GET.PID' RESPUESTA=XUSR Where XUSR is a variable that contains the PID of the user.

So I have a dilemma.    There is a callx set on a file called FM.  I need to update the FM file with a program but if I do it calls the callx.   Is there a way inside the program to write to the fm file but disable the callx that is set?     I want to be able to update the file FM without triggering the callx. Ideas? Thanks------------------------------craig curtisSystem ProgrammerSevier Valley School DistrictRichfield UT US------------------------------

 @Brian Cram; under the umbrella  "It is common knowledge (or most D3 Linux people know)  that…"; I've been baffled by this, but gracefully, I have a solution. My client has a General Ledger (let's call it Database – I don't wish to call it a D3 account) that strangely has a file called – ACCOUNTS.   This ledger file (ACCOUNTS) is used on other D3 databases (accounts) via a Q-pointer.   Now the "problem"; assuming one wishes to use the 'a' option in attribute 9 of the USERS file to start the accounting (logon logoff etc. etc.) – this file is referred to in most D3 accounts as … yep you guessed it ACCOUNTS! So, combined with the TIMEOUT option, you can experience an ITEM-LOCK (or GROUP-LOCK) very often. So, tip – DON'T have a file called ACCOUNTS (or a Q pointer for that matter to another D3 account) – or remove the 'a' option in the USERS file. Rocket - please be aware of this - unless otherwise OR can anyone out there offer a better solution? (yes, rename the ACCOUNTS file used in th

I have an MVIS dynamic array defined that has 24 items defined, whose locations are 1-24. However, when MVIS send these to the subroutine, I am seeing 4 <blank> values coming in that I cannot account for: Yes                    <--location 20 No                     <--location 21 F24                   <--location 22 <blank> <blank> <blank> <blank> 220557            <--location 23 6.00                  <--location 24 I have tried deleting and re-adding the last 3, restarted the integration server & even changed the order of the fields but it continues to send the 4 blank values. Any ideas of what might be causing this?  It has been fine up until this week when these last 3 fields were added.
