GOAL:
How to load .df without going through dictionary
FIX:
Here is a program that will load an existing .df without going through
the dictionary. The routine that loads the dictionary is called
load_df.p. It is located in the prodict directory and must be called
with 1 token. The following program will run:
/* program to run dictionary loader */
run prodict/load_df.p ("name of .df").
For more details, refer to Progress Knowledge Base Solution 17590,
"SAMPLE CODE to Dump Load .df,.d w/ Data Dictionary routines".
For V9, these files are contained in a .pl file. The .pl is in the
PROPATH variable by default. If you want to customize the programs,
you need to extract the files following these steps:
1) Make sure that your DLC/bin directory is in your path.
2) Default to the SRC directory
3) Run the command extractpl prodict.pl
4) Run the command extractpl adecomm.pl
This will create a prodict and an adecomm directory with these
files.
Progress does not provide support for the modification and/or
use of these modules outside of the Data Dictionary.
