Bug Fixes
---------
This patch includes solutions to the following issues.
I. RDB DataServer
Description: This solution was installed to remedy the improper
assignments of the NULL Value and the Unknown
Value (?) when the datatype DOUBLE PRECISION is
used within an RDB Field. PROGRESS now will properly
insert the correct number when using this floating
datatype.
II. MT Queue
Description: This solution was installed to remedy the problem
regarding the Micro Transaction Queuing. In
particular, PROGRESS was incorrectly flushing
PROGRESS notes prior to cancelling record locks
during abrupt terminal or process disconnects.
III. Ctrl-C
Description: This solution was installed to remedy the improper
CTRL-C handler under client/server environments.
PROGRESS was NOT properly handling the KEYBOARD
event CTRL-C under client/server. PROGRESS was
allocating a buffer and NOT verifing that there was
data in the buffer under some circumstances. A
FLAG is NOW set if the buffer contains data.
IV. RMS Block I/O
Description: This solution was installed to remedy the problem
associated to multiple connects and disconnects to
databases. PROGRESS now verify's a file open array
to a file closed array.
V. Disconnect Terminal
Description: This solution was installed to remedy the problem
associated to terminals that abruptly terminated
and PROGRESS was not adequately checking the
disconnect FLAG.
VI. DBKEY retry
Description: This solution was installed to verify that when
the PROGRESS error message (1124) exists, that it
is indicative of database corruption. If the
PROGRESS Server receives this message, PROGRESS
will perform a $QIO to device 10 times for record
verification. If the block of data can still NOT get
read from disk, PROGRESS will HEX dump the contents
of that block to the PROGRESS log file.
