PLATFORM:Edisa
MEDIA TYPE: Cartridge Tape

EXTRACT COMMAND: cpio -iuvcdBm < /dev/rsts0
INSTALL COMMAND: ./proinstall
MACHINE NOTES: None.
OPERATING SYSTEM NOTES: None.

SOFTWARE NOTES:
o CONNECT Multi-User
------------------
Since the Edisa does not have networking, if you try to CONNECT
Multi-User from either the PROGRESS editor or through the
Dictionary, you will get an error message:
"Failed to Open File System for Raw I/O (160)".
o Fast Track (convft)
-------------------
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 Fast Track (500 file limit)
---------------------------
Unlike earlier versions, Fast Track Version 6.2G.07 enables you
to choose from more than 500 files when creating QBF's,
reports or forms. Now there is no limit to the number of
files you can select. However, because of internal changes to
the Fast Track code, you must recompile any QBF's or menus
generated with earlier versions of Fast Track to run them
under Version 6.2G.07.
o RESULTS
-------
To run RESULTS for V6 with an Oracle or Rdb Gateway, the gateway
must be Version 6.2G or later.
With this Version of PROGRESS, the Oracle and Rdb Gateways only
use one index-cursor per buffer. This enables the Next option in
the RESULTS Query Module to work with these Gateways.
o ORACLE ldemo
------------
The ldemo script that resides in subdirectory ora in
the directory where you install PROGRESS
(e.g., /usr/dlc/ora/ldemo) will not work with the
Query/Runtime or Runtime product. It makes schema
modifications which these products do not support.
o PROBUILD
--------
To access a non-PROGRESS database locally,
you need to purchase the PROGRESS 4GL&RDBMS software and
the Database Gateway software. If you do not have this
combination of products, you cannot load the standard
gateway in your executable. See Chapter 1 in the PROGRESS
3GL Interface Guide for more information.
o Use of the RAW datatype
-----------------------
Manipulation of RAW datatype variables can result in values
being assigned incorrectly. Only types 7 and greater are
affected. This can occur if the length of a variable is changed.
o HLC
---
An error appears when returning from the module subfrd, and
gives the following results:
2.122e-314prordbl fatal ret = 842083890 unknown 858613042
instead of:
tf_print should be no, value is 0.
