SOFTWARE NOTES:

o Fast Track
----------

Valid for Progress Version prior to Version 6.2f.


If you use the convft utility to convert your database to a
Fast Track database, you must set the PROEXE environment variable
first:

PROEXE=/usr/dlc/_progres;export PROEXE
convft database-name

o Procedure Library - icompile.p
------------------------------

If you extract icompile.p from the Procedure Library and use it to
compile procedures, you will receive the following error message:

** Attempt to write to closed stream cproc. (1387)

Your procedures will compile, but you will get the error message
for every procedure compiled.

Workaround: To correct the problem, perform the following steps:

1. Enter the icompile.p file and look for thethe following
block:

DO WHILE TRUE.
statements...
END.

2. Place an IF..THEN statement block around the DO WHILE TRUE
as follows:

IF compproc <> "" THEN DO:
DO WHILE TRUE.
statements...
END.
END.

3. Save the changed icompile.p and use it to compile your
procedures.

o Building an x-windows executable on the bulldpx2
------------------------------------------------

1. In order to build an x-windows executable using probuild
you must also choose TCP/IP from the list of configurable
elements.


o HLC Routines
------------

There is a bug in some of the HLC routines that make up the
"Tank" application in Chapter 7 of the 3GL Interface Guide. The
first time you run the application, it works properly. However,
if you run the application again, it enters an infinite loop. To
break out of the loop, press CTRL-C. This bug is fixed in
PROGRESS Version 6.2F.
