I cannot see how to retrieve information returned from a script into my basic program. For example:SCRIPT  = 'width = Field(WindowPos(0),",",3)'CALL WIN.COMSUB(SCRIPT)how do I get the returned information back into my Unidata basic program?

We have hundreds of desktops running wIntegrate version 6.4.4.  After migrating to RHEL we want to find an easy method to enable SSO for all our desktops with wIntegrate.   We would like to run an automated script (using powershell or something) to update all our desktops so we don’t have to update each desktop individually, but the manual states that you cannot edit the session .wic files with a text editor because the files are in a binary format… that you need to use the wIntegrate Editor to edit the .wic files.  This doesn’t sound like something that can be easily automated. We have experimented with using a text editor (Notepad++) to update a .wic file before, and wIntegrate seems to properly recognize the changed setting... so it seems feasible that an automated powershell script could find and update all .wic files with a new setting.  Has anybody else had success updating settings in a wIntegrate .wic session file without using the wIntegrate editor to comp

I am on Universe. I get the following message when I try to delete a file.  "unable to unlink the operationg ssytem file" then it lists the file name. Then it follows with "DELETE failure".

Introduction I've installed the U2.EntityFrameworkCore NuGet package and successfully set up basic queries using my DbContext. Now I've hit a roadblock trying to call Universe subroutines Problem Description With basic CRUD operations functioning as expected using my DbContext, my next challenge is to call Universe subroutines. I can't seem to find clear documentation on how to achieve this when using the U2.EntityFrameworkCore package What You've Tried I've gone through the U2 Toolkit documentation, but it doesn't cover EF Core 6 specific implementations. I've also attempted to manually execute the subroutines using various EF Core methods, without any success. Questions Has anyone successfully called Universe subroutines using the U2.EntityFrameworkCore package with EF Core 6? What is the recommended approach for calling Universe subroutines in this setup? Are there any code samples or tutorials available that cover this specific scenario?

Can anyone explain when the ODBC driver returns a DUP_COUNTERS result?Google very "unhelpful" here :(

Good day, I'm supporting a IBM Power AIX environment, which I have been working with for about a year. Along with sorting out the general maintenance of the systems and moving to AIX 7.2 there is a large UniVerse environment on the hardware I support. So I've done a little reading, as I didn't build these environments, about recommend tuning. I couldn't find anything specific, so along with what I've found, I wanted to see if there was anything else I could do or look into. We have a number of test environments, and servers that I can build to test these things on.I have found some mention of tuning JFS, first was check the type of filesystem mount, if CIO enabled disable it. Then set 'ioo -p -o j2_dynamicBufferPreallocation=64'. I've also seen mention that j2_nPagesPerWriteBehindCluster should be changed from the default 32 to zero I have some ideas of things I might like to try and see if they made a difference, setting the  "/usr/sbin/syncd 60 > /dev/null 2>&1 &" defa

Have a quick question. In JED, what is the hot key to enter a TM (char 251) into a record? The VM and SVM are clearly documented. In Universe in ED i would just go into Up Arrow Mode  and change it there, but does not seem Up Arrow Mode is supported in ED on Jbase. Editing this in HEX does not seem supportable and I'd rather not have to create a user interface for this for a super user. I do see it's supported through RAISE() and LOWER(), so it should be there. Also see that @TM is supported. ------------------------------Greg MotterRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

hi everyone,   I created my own application. And it is a desktop application and it works with Unidata and Unibasics. I used Accuterm as an editor for my application. The output of my application screen shows as an old theme when I use Accuterm editor. The button, text, and color make my application old. I try to make my application screen look better. I want to make my application look good with a modern UI, I used Accuterm like Microsoft Visual Basics, Can anyone help me, please Azar

On a Windows system (Windows version is 10.0.20348.1970) running UV 11.2.5 in PICK format, we have a BASIC program that executes a DIR command. EXECUTE "DOS /c DIR" CAPTURING OUTPUT  The time column shows the timestamps in 24 hour format. However from a Windows DOS Command window, if we type DIR the times are in 12 hour format.  My question is how can we get the time format to be in 12 hour format when running the  program? What is UV looking at to determine the time format?  BTW we get same results when we use DOS command at TCL to get to the DOS environment and then type DIR.  Screen shot attached with Windows Command prompt window on left and Accuterm on right. Thanks in advance.

I have a client that runs a 24/7 application on UniVerse (11.3.2).  They are conscientious about keeping their files well sized.  Several years ago they tried the CONCURRENT option on RESIZE and got badly burned when they ended up with corrupted files and lost data.  They have been very gun shy about using CONCURRENT since then.  Has anyone resized UniVerse files with the CONCURRENT option recently?  Is it stable now or is it still a crap shoot on the end result?  If you use it, what is the performance impact?------------------------------Steve Murray-WolfOwnerRocket Forum Shared AccountFirestone CO US------------------------------

Rocket MV BASIC for VS Code 2.2.0 features highly stable and performance debugging Yunpu Zhao September 26, 2026 We're excited to introduce everyone to v 2.2.0 of Rocket MV BASIC for Visual Studio Code. We've added a new debugging feature that significantly improves performance and stability using gRPC and related technologies. (Currently compatible only with UniVerse 11.4.1's Windows / Linux versions.) Implementation of Previous Debugging In v1.6.0, we initially introduced debugging. This feature communicated with the MV Server using UOJ+UniRpc. We sent debugging command-line instructions (CLI) to the MV Server and retrieved the results as strings, which represented the execution outcome of the CLI instructions. Decoding these strings was necessary to obtain the required debugging data but process had a lot of room for improvement. Introducing gRPC gRPC is a modern open-source remote procedure call (RPC) framework that efficiently connects services within and outside data centers, o

We have a number of PHP pages that access QM on another server.   Our response time is slow by my standards. we have added some pretty significant logging to our process. We know the pageload time in PHP, we know the time for the function call to QM, and we know the QM response time. We getting some variability in response time as well with no patter that we can see. Our OpenQM server is in Azure and running on W2019. Our web server is on a private server running Apach and linux. we are using our url name and port 8280 as normal http://web.xyz.com:8280/api/ we are seeing times of 1.723 seconds to get the function and pageload in PHP. The QM side takes 8ms . we have been looking that the flush time on MVCONNECT, this seems to make no appreciable difference. we are off checking to make sure nothing on the windows server is grabbing this, such as virus checker or something. we down to internet time. Looking for suggestions on best practices.  Should we make a private tunnel from linux to

Hi Again, I am trying to change the background color of an ITEM , it has FORGROUND and BACKGROUND options in its PROPERTIES when looked at in ACCUTERM. So I am assuming that they can be changed on the "fly" durring use of the form. Here is what I have tried so far           CALL ATGUISETPROP(GUIAPP,GUIFRM,'COMBCUST',GPITEMS,0,0,CUST.LIST,GUIERRORS,GUISTATE)*         RGBCOLOR = 102 + 255*256 + 102*65536*         RGBCOLOR = "Green"*         RGBCOLOR = 102:@SVM:255:@SVM:102         RGBCOLOR = "102,255,102"         CALL ATGUISETITEMPROP(GUIAPP,GUIFRM,'COMBCUST',GPBACKCOLOR,0,0,RGBCOLOR,GUIERRORS,GUISTATE)         IF GUIERRORS<1> >=2 THEN GOTO GUI.ERROR         CALL ATGUISHOW(GUIAPP,GUIFRM,"COMBCUST","",GUIERRORS,GUISTATE)         CALL ATGUIACTIVATE(GUIAPP,GUIFRM,'COMBCUST',GUIERRORS,GUISTATE)         IF GUIERRORS<1> >=2 THEN GOTO GUI.ERROR         It always aborts , as you can see I have tried the RGB raw number, a generic name as used in the Properties drop down, the num

Hi,  am now using Accuterm well but am stumped by the the resulting functionality of the  Combo Box. Lets say the combo Box is waiting for a request and the user enters a Name (as requested)   BAXTER  I then search the Customers file and find 21. When I have created a list and loaded it, how do I make the list shown on the screen so that the user knows that their search request has a result. I realise that the user could simply press the "down arrow" but I would prefer to show them the first 8 items to indicate that the selection is ready for picking  I hope this makes sense.

Any U2 Basic program utility available to import JSON object into a dynamic array or Name-Value pair? I expect the U2 program to accept a JSON object as an input, and a list of Variable names to parsed from the JSON object.

Hi all:Let's start with "known"<1> *a9999 provides the size of an item<2> Similarly the u7000 user exit returns the size of an item. <3> LEN(My_Variable) returns the length of  My_VariableI need to prevent overflow so I need to defensively check for a certain "overflow" value (to be determined). ByteSize = function{variable}If ByteSize > {a predetermined value} then {defensive code}Else {variable := {continue to build variable } I searched for some function to do this but alas.Does anyone out there have an elegant solution?ThanksStefano

Hi allThis time it's OpenDB.I have a spreadsheet, which I can read in D3 and swap the LF to @Am - we know this. It's a CSV file so I know that the columns are delineated by a semicolon (did this on purpose when I spreadsheet was created (SEP=;)Now, when I create an Oracle table with the column headings I always find myself offset by 1 because the item (that D3 writes) writes the KEY in the first attribute :(Now even if I add this (as a first column) in Oracle - I still seem to not be able to line up the rank (of the D3 attributes) and the columns.Has anyone experienced this?  Let me know if you require the example of the D3 Q pointer but I believe I have this correct. Also, if I write the record with a NUL key - I seem to get inconsistent results.@Robert Burke - any solutions that you may have?ThanksStefano

Has anyone else experienced this?   Since the move to UniData 8.2.4 Build 3003, I cannot use the "BL"  (Break at Line) in the UniBASIC Debugger without getting a mini dump for my troubles. I am unclear if I've just gotten really unlucky, or if something is not working as expected in this build. I have the team I work with opening a case, but wanted to see if this is something that is just my miserable luck, or if something is not quite right. It pretty consistently tells me I have an 'Access violation.  Attempted to 'read from address 0xFFFFFFFF'  ------------------------------David WolvertonIndependentSunset Programming IncWaltham MA US------------------------------

Hi All I''ve just started working with AccuTerm 8. x and as a developer, we sometimes need to break out of code that is processing to debug.Yes, I could place a conditional debug statement in the code but het guess what "Real men don't do that"  :)Anyway - pressing all key sequences (that I know) bears no fruit so I've stopped guessing and put this fwd to this group.I'm running Windows (10 and 11) and set my emulation to Viewpoint onto a Linux installed D3 10. xDoes anyone have the correct key sequence, please?Thanks Stefano

This was highlighted to me by the Director of Development as a feature when we were shipping UniVerse 4.4.4. The command syntax is: verb [DICT] filename [records | FROM list#] … where verb is among 18 options including CHECKSUM, COUNT, and LIST. Do we care if the file name can be almost anywhere in the query? Do we want to advertise this feature in the documentation? Should we just follow the documentation which wants [DICT] filename first? Is this for compatibility with some legacy multivalue environment? Is this capability simply a side effect of the lex/parse implementation? Does anyone do things like the following?: LIST DICT F1 VOC (Split DICT and filename) LIST F1 DICT MD (Filename after fields) LIST VOC DICT (At least this does NOT work – if DICT is not a dictionary field) Thoughts? ------------------------------Mark A BaldridgePrincipal ConsultantThought MirrorNacogdoches, Texas United States------------------------------

As a discussion starter, I'd like to throw out a few wish list items that would be helpful in our environment and, I assume, might be helpful to others:1. Block commentsThere are times when it would be very helpful to have the capability to use block comments. In BASIC programs, using a 'IFDEF()' sort of works but this capability should be available in all source code environments, e.g., BASIC programs, procs, paragraphs, etc. This would allow using markdown for documentation and would simplify program maintenance and management.2. Default text file typeFiles using Type 1 and Type 19 are intended for storing text data. Type 1 is a throwback (way back) to old Pick capabilities and, on current systems (Linux or other) is just another piece of tedium to deal with. I would like to suggest a configuration item that would indicate the type of file to use for standard text files. So, if a new account is created, those system files (like &SAVEDLISTS&) would be created as Type 19, rathe
