However, the "dependent │ │ multivalued symbols" only seem to work top-down, not │ │ bottom-up (as I am doing). Is there any way to determine │ │ the %File of a %Field without looping through all the files │ │ and fields with a #FOR loop? │ │ - It would be nice if the Generator had a switch so that │ │ #EMBED statements in the template DO NOT generate EMBED │ │ statements in the code. Sometimes I want to use embedded │ │ code to work around an issue and I can't because it assumes │ │ that my embedded code will be actual code statements rather │ │ than, say, a single variable name. │ │ - It would be nice if the Screen Field Properties allowed │ │ for an extra slot into which I could put my own │ │ information. Call it a "comment" or something, and make │ │ sure it can be accessed by the template. │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 0408 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : CS DateReported : 2/18/93 │ │ Reported In : 3001 RevisedDate : 11/08/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : InTheFuture │ │ │ │ Section : PULLDOWN MENU FORMATTER / APPLICATION GENERATOR │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ In case it hasn't been suggested or requested, a MSG │ │ attribute for PullDown items would be a very nice addition. │ │ R&D: Implemented in 3005 in Library, but no access to MSG │ │ attribute in the Pulldown Menu Formatter yet.

The map and .PR file would then be │ │ modified to resolve the reference. │ │ In our example, I could specify CALC() as the setup code │ │ for a field. I would not have to change the .PR file or add │ │ the call to the map UNLESS I wanted to use a CALC() │ │ function different than the one registered in the LED. CDD │ │ would note that the call was unresolved, consult the LED, │ │ and add the call to the map and .PR file. Program │ │ compilation and linking would proceed as normal from that │ │ point. │ │ This would save any programmer considerable time during the │ │ development process, and would encourage the development │ │ and use of language extensions, in all forms. │ │ This would also eliminate a lot of duplication or │ │ shuffling. Once I develop a VIEWFILE procedure, for │ │ example, I could register it in the LED and stick a .DLL or │ │ .LIB or .CLA/.PR pair in \CLARION3\LIB. From that time on, │ │ I can use it in every program just by calling it. If I get │ │ a better VIEWFILE, I just replace the old one. If I want a │ │ special VIEWFILE for this particular program, I complete │ │ the design locally, the call is no longer unresolved, and │ │ the LED is never consulted. │ │ Oh, yeah, while I'm asking... the LED registration program │ │ should take command line parameters, so I could obtain a │ │ library from someone, run a batch file, and go to work. │ │ If a match to the current registry is found, offer an │ │ option to replace the current entry, ignore the new entry, │ │ or leave both in the database. At code generation time, if │ │ more than one entry is found in the LED for a particular │ │ call, display the libraries that contain both calls and let │ │ the developer select the one to be used. │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 0470 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : CS DateReported : 3/01/93 │ │ Reported In : 3002 RevisedDate : 12/22/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Need/Info │ │ │ │ Section : OPERATING SYSTEMS / LANTASTIC │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ I found out if I loaded SERVER.exe locally __AND__ logged │ │ into my machine (I don't even have to "NET USE" any local │ │ resources), the "bleep" went away. If I then logged out, │ │ the "bleep" came back. │ │ REDIR.exe MYCPU │ │ SERVER.exe │ │ NET LOGIN \\MYCPU <---- At this point the bleep is │ │ gone, as long as I am logged │ │ into "MYCPU" │ │ NET LOGOUT \\MYCPU <---- At this point the bleep is │ │ back. │ │ Further I can even remove SERVER.exe via the command line │ │ or Ctrl_Alt_DEL, and the bleep stays away as long as I │ │ don't logout of my local machine before I remove Server, │ │ ie: │ │ REDIR.exe MYCPU │ │ SERVER.exe │ │ NET LOGIN \\MYCPU <---- At this point the bleep is │ │ gone, as long as I am logged │ │ into "MYCPU" │ │ SERVER.exe /REMOVE <---- At this point the bleep is │ │ still gone, even though Server │ │ is no longer loaded.

If I subsequently"NET LOGOUT //MYCPU" │ │ the bleep is comes back │ │ again. │ │ Also, for what its worth, SHARE doesn't matter in the above │ │ mix, I've tried it both with and without SHARE loaded. │ │ Obviously, LANtastic is partially at fault, CDD .exe's work │ │ fine under straight DOS, therefore, LANtastic is not │ │ behaving as 100% DOS compatible. │ │ However, I would personally hesitate to put all the blame │ │ on LANtastic, since this is the first time this has ever │ │ happened on my system, I think CDD3 must be doing something │ │ fairly unusual.

REPORT DATA - using the Report Data Editor, if a │ │ dimensioned Group is defined, then the elements are │ │ defined, then 1 or more of the elements are changed or │ │ deleted, the Computed Size displayed for the group is │ │ incorrect. │ │ 3. OVER - using the "OVER" attribute on a data item screen │ │ puts the "OVER" code INSIDE of the data definition it is │ │ defined as being "over". │ │ 4. SCREEN GARBLING - seems to be (at least partially) │ │ attributed to having HOT fields on a browse screen in │ │ addition to a LOCATOR field. GDF - Tested OK │ │ 5.

'3' & │ │ ConditionalField & RecordField). - Need Clarification. │ │ 6. FOX DRIVER - based on my tests, looks like the file │ │ must be created first with a separate program (ie. the │ │ open(file) command doesn't return an error so the create │ │ never gets done). Also, if any indexes are defined, the │ │ open will not return an error, but in fact the file is not │ │ open, and any subsequent file i/o will fail with errorcode │ │ 37 "File Not Open". If the index def(s) are removed from │ │ the file def, the errorcode 37 goes away. Its interesting │ │ to note that if the index(s) ARE defined in the file def, │ │ and a BUILD is performed on the file (ie. BUILD(File)) no │ │ errorcode is returned, even though the index(s) was not │ │ built. Trying to BUILD(PRE:INDEXNAME), generates a compiler │ │ error "invalid 1st parameter". Take off the prefix, and the │ │ error persists.

For │ │ example: │ │ val real x string │ │ code │ │ val = 1.234 │ │ x = format(val, @P<<#.#P) │ │ So what's wrong with this picture you say? │ │ Well, x has the value ".1" not "1.2" like it should. The │ │ "."is treated just like any insertion character and doesn't │ │ align the decimal point in any way. Why doesn't it? │ │ The "." should align the decimal point of the number. Or │ │ at least use another symbol to align the decimal, like the │ │ "~" symbol. Example: x = format(val, @P<<#~.#P) │ │ At least then we'd be able to use the @P picture with │ │ decimal numbers with some assurance that we'll see the │ │ proper number I realize there are some uses for non │ │ aligned decimals with the @P picture, which is why I │ │ suggested a decimal alignment character. So @P<<#~.#P │ │ will align the decimal with the ~ symbol, which just │ │ happens to be next to the "." (Imagine that<g>). So YOU │ │ don't have to change a thing, and I will be able to │ │ format real numbers "correctly"without having to use fudge │ │ factors like "*10". With the decimal alignment character │ │ "~", if someone changes the picture, he doesn't have to │ │ remember to change the "*10" to "*100" in every calculation │ │ in the program. │ │ Note: this is a suggestion │ │ submitted on Compuserve. │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 2474 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : BN DateReported : 9/27/93 │ │ Reported In : 3004 RevisedDate : 1/21/94 │ │ Fixed In : 0000 Status : Suggestion │ │ │ │ Section : Screen Library │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ 3004 - suggestion from user - having an equate for a │ │ mouseright2, there is one for mouseleft2 │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 2477 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : TB DateReported : 9/27/93 │ │ Reported In : 3004 RevisedDate : 11/11/93 │ │ Fixed In : 0000 Status : InTheFuture │ │ │ │ Section : FILE DRIVER / DBASE IV VERSION 1.0 │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ user reports -- dbase4 driver -- he says that dbase │ │ actually stores a CR and he cannot store the CR in the same │ │ manner in clarion -=- This gets stored by pressing the │ │ enter key in dbase ... │ │ he claims that if he adds a memo to the dbase4 file in │ │ clarion ...then goes to dbase and edits then saves that │ │ memo, clarion can no longer read that memo. │ │ R&D: This will require a change to the screen structure, │ │ addition of new driver functions and a rewrite of │ │ parts of the screen library.

I have │ │ written Apps Gens in a previous life and I am impressed │ │ with the flexibility of CDD without sacrificing ease of │ │ use.That being said, guess what I want. Yep, you got it, I │ │ wantMORE. I would very much like to see the following │ │ enhancements to the Clarion 3006 product. I would also │ │ liketo STAY OUT of the Apps Gen business forever! Thanks in │ │ advance for your consideration. │ │ Productivity Improvements │ │ ------------------------- 1) A tool of this type and │ │ technology should allow copying any program or data │ │ portion from one place to another. I should never have to │ │ go through a data entry excercise more than once │ │ (this is NOT a good use of anyones time). Therefore, I │ │ would like to: a) copy Local Data to Global Data & │ │ vice versa. b) copy portions of Data from one Application │ │ to another. c) copy Procedures from one │ │ Application to another. 2) It would be nice to drop │ │ "bookmarks" or "anchors" at various development │ │ points (max of 6? 1?). That way, a key sequence or │ │ command line argument could take me to that exact │ │ location. The ShiftF4 feature is nice, but with the │ │ above change, I could save: <down arrow>,<down │ │ arrow>,<Enter>,AltU,<down arrow>,Enter,<page Down>, <page │ │ Down>,etc. Software tools should remove the mundane. │ │ Along these same lines, type-ahead is │ │ inconsistant in CDD. You can *usually* type-ahead until │ │ you have to press an Enter key, but not always. I hate │ │ waiting on screens. I've been to the screen dozens of │ │ times, I know how many down arrows, Alt │ │ whatevers, etc I need. Why must I wait for the thrill of │ │ SEEING the screen again before making my selection, again? │ │ I can't even go back to the application I was just working │ │ on without waiting for the CDD logo screen to appear (I │ │ really do like the screen, but hey, must I see it before I │ │ can seleShiftF4?). So could you: │ │ a) Give the CDD programmer a way to go back to a │ │ SPECIFIC spot? (Specific like Application, Procedure, │ │ Source point, & line) b) Allow type-ahead always. │ │ c) Give the CDD programmer a way to "go to" the │ │ main Procedure Worksheet taking all the "good" │ │ (Ok/Exit/Esc-X-Enter/AltF-X- Enter) responses without │ │ the CUA finger gymnastics. At least this path │ │ generally takes type-ahead (bless you). │ │ Feature Enhancements │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 3211 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : PB DateReported : 12/03/93 │ │ Reported In : 3006 RevisedDate : 12/16/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Problem │ │ │ │ Section : FILE DRIVER / PARADOX 3.5 VERSION 1.0 │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ .LCK file maintenance │ │ when a file is opened a filespec.LCK file is created and │ │ the paradox.net file is updated. if the shared file is │ │ closed while another user has it opened the lck file is │ │ removed. this causes problems with the user who still has │ │ the file open. they will get errors because an entry is │ │ found in the paradox.net file but no corresponding .lck │ │ file is found. │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 3219 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : CS DateReported : 12/06/93 │ │ Reported In : 3006 RevisedDate : 12/07/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Suggestion │ │ │ │ Section : TEMPLATES IN GENERAL │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ Fm: Marjolein Katsma 100276,2414 MSG#:45202 │ │ 1. #PROMPTs in #GROUPs. │ │ The more I do with the templates, the more I │ │ realise that having the possiblity of #PROMPTs in #GROUPs │ │ is absolutely essential for a truly interactive template │ │ language. I suppose the Template Processor uses │ │ the #PROMPTs in a template to 'format' the properties │ │ window for the type of procedure defined by that template. │ │ Since the inclusion or not of a #GROUP can be dependent on │ │ conditions not know at the time of processing the │ │ template chain, I suppose it's impossible to include │ │ #PROMPTs from a #GROUP in that same window. So here's my │ │ suggestion: Have the template processor format a 'child' │ │ window for each #GROUP that has any #PROMPTs - this child │ │ window can then be popped up at design time if and when │ │ the conditions for inclusion of that particular #GROUP are │ │ met. │ │ 2. #SETting a default for a #PROMPT. I tried to do this, │ │ and found it didn't work: use #SET to give a 'default' │ │ value to a user-defined symbol. After that, use a #PROMPT │ │ _for that same user-defined symbol_ to let the programmer │ │ change the default value set by #SET if desired. │ │ I found first of all, that the entry field for the │ │ #PROMPT came up empty, i.e. the #SET value did not appear. │ │ Secondly, when I did fill in the entry field, I found that │ │ what took effect was the value from the #SET statement; the │ │ entered value was ignored. I see no reason why this could │ │ not work; such a 'default' mechanism is completely │ │ consistent with the concept and syntax of the template │ │ language and would be very useful, e.g. where naming │ │ conventions are important but may have to be overruled in │ │ special cases. │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 3223 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : TB DateReported : 12/06/93 │ │ Reported In : 3006 RevisedDate : 12/15/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Suggestion │ │ │ │ Section : TEMPLATES IN GENERAL │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ Where is the percent symbol for reclaim attribute and the │ │ charcter count such as 20 for a string filed? │ │ R&D: All needed built-in template symbols will again be │ │ addressed in the next release > 3.7... │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 3225 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : TB DateReported : 12/07/93 │ │ Reported In : 3007 RevisedDate : 12/08/93 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Problem │ │ │ │ Section : HELP / ID MISSING │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ I found the help for the stop window for the first time, │ │ but now the info on that screen has changed, and it needs │ │ to be updated │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ C.D.D. 3.0 ProblemNumber : 3229 │ ├───────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────┐ │ Reported By : TB DateReported : 12/07/93 │ │ Reported In : 3007b RevisedDate : 1/07/94 │ │ Fixed In : Status : Problem │ │ │ │ Section : UNCLASSIFIABLE PROBLEM │ │ │ ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ Problem Description │ │ │ │ This is a problem with the demo example ...or maybe with a │ │ template.

Now Clarion programmers had better know C. │ │ Because, you see, this is a stack problem. │ │ The report has a few (local) variables. Should │ │ not been a problem - but it was.

Doesn't seem to work │ │ too well since it NEVERreported any stack problems during │ │ program execution. BTW, Istill think the compiler could │ │ catch this problem. It could tell the link what stack is │ │ required and the linker ;;[5] Harry - hello? could │ │ generate an error if you dont give it enough.

After more trials and errors, I │ │ think I can make this briefer than it would have been │ │ before. │ │ > you should only link in support for the graphics │ │ modes you use │ │ First, I think you're saying, and it appears to │ │ behave as though ALL graphic drivers that you're wanting to │ │ support get LOADED into conventional lower memory as soon │ │ as any graphics library procedure is called. That explains │ │ why the program ground to a halt after calling same, all of │ │ a sudden having 200K-300K less memory to operate in. If │ │ thisis true, it's a terrible step backward from 2.1 where │ │ you could link all drivers into the program, but load only │ │ the one you needed with the SETVIDEO(GETVIDEO()) │ │ statement. If there is something I can do to link all the │ │ drivers, but load only the one called for, please tell me │ │ how. For now I've dropped Hercules support, which I can │ │ probably get awaywith, but I must have CGA and EGA/VGA and │ │ loading both thesedrivers is taking up a lot of precious │ │ memory. (With thousands of users I don't have the │ │ luxury of "linking in support for the graphics mode you │ │ use"). Incidentally, sincedropping the Hercules support the │ │ program no longer goes into "crawl" mode, taking 7 │ │ seconds to load 50 records into a LIST box. (That problem │ │ occured in regular CDD non-graphicLIST box screens anytime │ │ after a procedure using the graphics lib had been │ │ called, even though one had RETURNed from that procedure). │ │ Second, the overlay │ │ manger seems to have a problem with procedures that use │ │ the graphic library, as the program (my app) will crash with │ │ an "out of memory" error on a very arbitrary and │ │ unpredictable basis when such are called. If Ireduce my │ │ memory by loading a TSR, then the problem becomes more │ │ frequent, and still unpredictable. There is no such │ │ problem on procs that don't use the graphic lib.
