Rocket MultiValue

I have been struggling this for a few days now. This works of course in Terminal. When you right-clock on a program in VSCode, the bottom  two menu items are Catalog and Compile. I have researched this and it would seem several configurations need to be in place.  I do have the ssh configs set up, the BP file in the workspace, but it never finds the file or the program. Does anyone have the steps to rectify this? Thanks in advance,  Roy.

🧠 Jump to Top in Multi-Value Fields – A Simple Trick to Loop Input Have you ever faced the challenge of designing a screen with a fixed number of multi-value lines, and wanted the cursor to jump back to the top once the last line is reached? For a long time, I couldn't find a way to do this. But now I've discovered a simple trick-and I'd like to share it in case someone else has the same need. 🔧 Scenario Imagine you have a screen like this: You want the cursor to jump back to the first line when pressing <Enter> or <Down> on the fourth line. 🛠️ How to Implement It In the Process Before of the MV field, set: (P:@REFRESH = -2) In the Controlling/Dependent Options, press F3 on Control/Dep/Read and enter the following in Process on MV Disp: 4 is the number of maximum MV lines you want. the 1 in /1.1 refers to the StepNo of the field you want to jump back to (in this case, line 1 of field 1). 💬 Final Thought I just wanted to share this idea with the SB community-thanks

Hi sb users, I'll share a vsCode extension to edit Sbparagraph code.  Use a trigger on XXPROCESS to sync P type in a Directory.  Use sftp/sync to have it on the client Edit your code Use a ssh RUN program to sync back, copy into XXPROCESS, regen the process (like f2), run GC. It return ProblemMatcher info.  Capabilities : syntaxe coloris, all sb common vars, all SBExpression, all sbSubrs, Formater (indent), Hover, SignatureHelp. You can provide custom intellisensitems for Hover and Signature Help. I share all my expérience with pleasure.  Manu------------------------------Manu Fernandes------------------------------

Hello, In MV Basic for Visual Studio, can you compile within the program?  For example in Accuterm WED your press F10 and it compiles displaying any errors or a successful compile.  Thanks.------------------------------Peter GonzalezSt. Louis, MO US------------------------------

I'm fairly new to the UV world, and a coworker installed a trial version of UV and then had to have emergency surgery so the project was placed with me. I'm trying to sset up a uv database, but i can't seem to find or create a proper bp directory file for basic source code, and I can't type in lowercase at all, all myh input gets converted to uppercase. I've tried turning CASE off but it still converts. Can we default to a lowercase easily?

Hi, I need some assistance with my u2 installation of python. UV14.1.1/Windows - python 3.11.1 is installed under c:u2uvpython. I want to install and use a third party python module(s). However, using:  >python -m pip install wonderwords gives me an error ERROR: Exception: ... ImportError: cannot import name 'RequirementInformation' from 'pip._vendor.resolvelib.structs' (c:u2uvpythonLibsite-packagespip_vendor esolvelibstructs.py) How should I resolve that? Should I reinstall something? Also, is it possible to use virtual python environments with the u2 python configuration? It seems I can create them but I'm not sure how to activate it from within UV.  Thanks Stuart

Hi facultative code folding in vscode languages is a good productivity thing but not enabled by default for the Rocket mvbasic extension. It allows you to hide unimportant code in the editor not already hidable because of indentation. The language-configuration.json configuration file allows for a folding region to be added/enabled. This is the json snippet I manually edit into the client and server config files. "folding": { "offSide": true, "markers": { "start": "^\\\\s*!!\\\\s*#region", "end": "^\\\\s*!!\\\\s*#endregion" } } Could we get default folding markers added please. ------------------------------Stuart BoydellAU------------------------------

Hi, Is it possible to connect to MQ using LDAP in Unidata 8.2.4. if not, is there any work around to connect and post messages? We are upgrading our IBM MQ version to 9.3 so we are changing the authentication to LDAP CSP and send username and password for authentication. Is there a way for Unidata to accommodate these changes? Any reference to documentation or any inputs will be greatly appreciated. More simple question should be can we use MQCONNX to connect to MQ in Unidata? Regards, Unidata Enthusiast

Greetings folks! Is it possible to call a basic subroutine that returns a counter and items associated with that counter such that someone in PROC could use the counter to pass the item associated with it?

Hi All, Is there any way we can sync the publisher and subscriber, we know there is a sync command which is sometimes helpful but doesn't help us when the replication system is DISABLED.------------------------------Shubham NigamRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

As more and more customers are using U2 Replication, they have inquired about how to ensure that our subscriber is synchronized with our publisher and not missing any updates. It is imperative for customers to have trust in the accuracy of the subscriber's database copy. This confidence is essential for relying on it in the event of a failover or for uninterrupted business reporting. This utility offers a continuity check between the publisher and subscriber files for U2 Replication, empowering customers with the confidence they need. The utility and the documentation are available from our knowledge base, by searcing for Article Number 000055107 , or for the description 'U2 Replication File Checker' or using this link https://my.rocketsoftware.com/RocketCommunity/s/article/U2-Replication-File-Checker The utiltly has undergone a closed beta and will initially be maintained by myself and updated via the knowledge base article before making it's way into UV and UD. All feedback is welc

Using the CREATE statement after an OPENSEQ statement to create a record in a type-19 file, we are getting below error in uvrw.errlog (Universe replication).

I have a subroutine that is compiled and cataloged. It gets call by some phantom processes. Periodically a phantom process dies because it cannot load the subroutine. What else can prevent universe from loading the subroutine besides not being compiled and cataloged? Update to the original post:  I have found the error for a common size mismatch but I am not sure why because it will run for hours processing many records without an issue.

Before upgrading 10.4.0 or earlier versions of D3 Windows, shut down and do a "standard" uninstall of D3. This will leave all of your data and Device Manager settings in place. This is necessary because of a bug in the 10.4.0.1 installer which will not allow installation of the D3 services once the upgrade is complete.------------------------------Brian S.

MTS returns 13:37:42, but with sending data to SQL, multiple timestamps have the same value. Is there a way to get miliseconds?  We are transmitting multiple records and many would have the same "42" second value. Our best solution is to get the MTS value and add the decimal portion of U2 internal time to it.   For example, if raw time is 49062.2004, MTS retruns 13:37:42. before sending to SQL, we would change it to 13:37:42.2004 SQL date field would get "2025-07-25 13:37:42.2004" which it may not like. Any suggestions?

Hi,  I'm looking to find out if it's possible to install a python module in UV. We are currently running UV 11.3.4 with Python 3.9 embedded. We've had a request from our development if pytest can be added to what we currently have installed? Has anyone had any experience installing this module, and were there any adverse consequences that effected Python as a whole? Thanks, John Koonce

I have a python script that uses the "requests" package. When I run the Universe program that calls the function I get the "requests" package not found. I then created another python script that calls the python script that contains the "requests" package and it works when I call that script from Universe.  I must have something wrong in my path setting when coming from Universe and it cannot find the "requests" package. If I run the python script in Linux the program executes perfectly. If I invoke python from universe and import requests it works fine and finds the requests package. Both scripts are in the default location /XDEMO/PP. u2.pth /usr/ibm/bin/usr/ibm/XDEMO/PP Universe program:  SUBROUTINE SUB.BASEVEHICLE(VEHID,VEHOUT)       CMD = "REINIT.PYTHON OFF"       EXECUTE CMD       ModuleName = "callbaseveh"      FuncName = "getbasevehinf"       RESULT = PyCallFunction(ModuleName , FuncName, VEHID
