$RSO and redirection of compiled forms

Author: i2stiller@gmx.de (istiller)

Guude Just a simple question :-) I'm on switching a classic development to a standardized one  (as UnifAce calls it) In the classic version we redirect some forms - dependig on prefixes- to different directories. This is done by lines like w*.frm Z:\\\\ufs\\u_DTF\\frm_w\\w*.frm But how to rebuild the behavior with the standard approach? Any hints are welcome :-) Ingo

 

Hi Ingo, As mentioned in my last post, you can create a separate UAR-file with the internal-use forms and then add it to the [RESOURCES]. E.g.

[RESOURCES]
internal_use.uar
application_base.uar

  That should work. Daniel

When using the Standardized Approach then file redirection will only work for non-Uniface files. Uniface application objects need to be stored in a standardized directory structure (as described in the doc). But what is the reason behind redirecting the forms? What are you trying to achieve here? Hope this helps. Daniel  

Hi Daniel As we do have some forms that are for interanl use only, we don't want them in the big bucket, but separate :-) it's like the tables, which some of them are global to all environments and will be redirected to special databases We done this for years, so why not continue in future? Ingo
