Rocket MultiValue

Greeting all! New to Universe so my apologies for the rookie question.  Is there any to determine when the last date/time a program was compiled and by whom?------------------------------Doc RuckelPart time programmerRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

d3 all versions. To my knowledge, this has been around forever; but it has always been something I thought was totally inconsistent: File A and File B are related to each other. An attribute on File B is a mv. From File A I wish to use a dictionary item that returns that File B attribute; and so use a t-correlative such as:T(FILEB;X;;n)where n is the integer amc number of the attribute on File B I want. This works perfectly if n is single valued; but if n is multi-valued the result is all the values delimited by a <space>; not returned as a mv. Why? It strikes me this is entirely inconsistent with mv principles. Now, with that said; is there a way around this in a dictionary item [apart from doing a call subroutine] using F or A type syntax?

Hi everyone, We're currently evaluating Evoke by BlueFinity as a front-end solution for our MultiValue system and recently had a demo which looked quite promising. The plan is to move forward with it, but before we do, I wanted to check: Has anyone here had hands-on experience with Evoke or mv.NET in a production environment? Any feedback-positive or negative-regarding integration, performance, support, or limitations would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, Is anybody aware or know if System Builder 5.1 (pre SB+ I know it's ancient) was ported for a Linux platform (for Unidata)? Thanks.------------------------------Rashid HoosenDeveloperInvestec Bank LimitedSandton ZA------------------------------

Forgive me if this has been asked before.  We're running an emulation called BluVista and we're thinking of slowly migrating to Accuterm or wIntegrate. I see in Accuterm , using some emulations that I should be able to get an answerback.  I wrote a sample program to send a CHAR(5) to trigger the answerback and when I run the program I do in fact see the answerback string displayed on the screen but I cannot figure out how to capture that string programmatically.  I've tried input, inputif, etc and I never see the string in the input buffer. Has anyone on here successfully used the answerback string in Accuterm?

What syntax do I need to prompt the user - who runs a program from the terminal - for input, but I don't want it to echo back to the terminal? ------------------------------Shawn Waldieenterprise application developerRocket Forum Shared AccountLos Angeles CA US------------------------------

Hi all Is there a way tu call pip via RUNPY? Usually I do server maintenance and intallations via shell, like this SH-5.1$ /u2/uv/python/bin/python3 -m pip install some_module SH-5.1$ /u2/uv/python/bin/python3 -m pip freeze Of course, it the server is running on windows things are different, so I was wondering if there is some way to interface with pip using the Universe command line, and not the operative system shell. ------------------------------Héctor CortigueraQuiter Servicios Informaticos SL------------------------------

I have a n old MVBase system and I would like to make an MD file pointer to a directory in windows.  Is this possible?  I found that I can use a UOPEN to open an os file and write to a file. Sorry for reposting.  I made the previous post a question and did not realize I could not reply to a question.   ------------------------------Troy DittbernerPresidentNorthstar Data Services IncBrooklyn Park VA US------------------------------

I inherited a 2000 line EOD proc.  This proc does some reporting, run some programs and also calls other procs which do the same thing.  Is there a way I can turn on tracking on the port this runs on to log what the proc is doing.  I guess I would be interested in what process is ran and a time stamp.  Thanks in advance for any help.------------------------------Troy DittbernerPresidentNorthstar Data Services IncBrooklyn Park VA US------------------------------

Hi,I wrapped most of the intercall library for use with javascript and now you can read, write and run subroutines directly from node.You can get the package here:pick-universeDocumentation:Home - DocumentationI also wrote a package to use multivalue style array indices and convert multivalue strings to and from js arrays:pick-mvThese packages are still pretty new and still being worked on, so feel free to open a github issue if you run into anything.------------------------------Nivethan ThiyagarajahProgrammerAsynchron Systems IncToronto ON CA------------------------------

Greeting folks! New to the community.  Interested to know if anyone in this forum is using an outside application for source control?

We are using the descriptive internal information about programs, specifically last date ran and number of times ran since last compiled. This information doesn't seem to be accurate in all cases. Our theory is if an external subroutine is flash compiled, and the calling program is flash compiled, these don't get updated. Are we accurate in our theory and are there other issues we should be aware of?------------------------------Kevin MarshallDirector of Software DevelopmentTechnical Resource GroupCA US------------------------------

I have a customer that wants training in UniQuery. I do provide this on occasion, but would not be able to handle this case. I sent him to https://www.rocketsoftware.com/training-and-services He says no one at Rocket has gotten back to him, he submitted an inquiry early March. This is secondhand info, of course. Where should I direct him for help? ------------------------------Elaine LitchfieldElaine Litchfield ConsultingSan Diego CA US------------------------------

Does any forum member know if you can upgrade to Universe, for free, from mvBase if you have an annual support contract in place for mvBase. I have reached our directly to Rocket but nobody has responded to me.  ------------------------------Richard OldsDirectorCalidore LtdUKrichard@calidore.comwww.caldiore.co.uk------------------------------

IGNORE THIS. CAN'T WORK OUT HOW TO DELETE THE THREAD.

Hey, folks. In UniData, I'm attempting to use SETPTR to change several options. However, this command:SETPTR 0,220,44,2,2,1,"FONTSIZE=9","ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE","FONT=COURIER"results in only the FONT=COURIER setting being accepted. All other variations of that command result in execution error. Any help would naturally be appreciated.Rich------------------------------Richard LucibellaDirectorRocket Forum Shared Account------------------------------

We use mvBase extensively, along with Accuterm (GUI). We need to re-platform to another mv product as mvBase is EOL. We were all ready to go down the OpenQM  route, then Rocket aquirred the product and all development seems to have stopped! ( We have been deliberating the move for some time.) We have  looked at jBase and D3.  Rocket are pushing us down the D3 the path. I don't see many posts about D3 improvements, it all appears to be Universe or Unidata. So my question is, what would be your platform of choice if you were moving away from your current mv version, or are you happy with your current platform for the foreseeable future (5+ years). Many thanks. Richard Olds------------------------------Richard OldsSnr DeveloperCalidore Computer Systems LtdGATESHEAD GB------------------------------

Good afternoon, I'm from Venezuela. I'm currently working with D3 version 7.50, which is over 20 years old due to the well-known economic crisis. My name is Rafael Rivas and I'm from Venezuela. I'm currently working with D3 version 7.50, which is over 20 years old due to the well-known economic situation in my country and the lack of resources to update it to the latest version. I'm having ODBC compatibility issues when trying to connect Microsoft Access to my D3 database. Due to these issues, I'm unable to establish a proper connection. If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. I specifically need the ODBC64 version to resolve this issue. Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi, I'm having problems with installing UV14 in a RockyLinux:latest container. I'm using the unmodified Compose build from https://github.com/RocketSoftware/multivalue-containers It consistently gives a shared memory violation during installation after the "Installing default Basic Global catalog" message.  Then you get the following in the log when UV attempts to start: Starting UniVerse...UVSMM is started.Starting uvsm...Unirpcd is started.Loading rfsconfig information.Error when attaching shm (0, 268435456, 0), errno=22Couldn't start uvcleanupd daemon.Please check /usr/uv/uvcleanupd.log and /usr/uv/uvcleanupd.errlogUniVerse startup is aborting. Of the versions I've tried, this failure happens for 12.2.1, 14.1 and 14.2.1.beta. UV11.4.1 is okay and consistently gives good installs. Upgrade from 11 -> 14 is also good. I'm taking from comments in this thread that there should be no difference using a container as any other form of virtualisation. Has anyone else had this issue? Chee

I originally posted this in August of 2022. I'm reposting because 1) it's getting closer to 2030, and 2) I've had a few support cases asking about this issue. Everyone out there know about D3's SET-DATE-WINDOW utility? It's something you can add to your cold start procedure to change the 2-digit year pivot point from 30 to something else. Example if you ICONV a date like 8/1/31, you'll get an internal date in the year 1931, not 2031 as you might expect. I have this in my USER-COLDSTART: SET-DATE-WINDOW 60 This tells my D3 system to assume that any two-digit years from 00 to 59 are 2000 to 2059, where 60 to 99 are 1960 to 1999. This is a LOT handier than handling it in your application. I'm posting this because there's a lot of useful stuff in D3 that I was unaware of until I became a Rocket employee and was actually forced to read the manual. Maybe some of you are in the same boat. https://docs.rocketsoftware.com/bundle/d3_rg_1034/page/d3/d3_all/source/reference_manual/introduction/D3_
