SOFTWARE NOTES:

1) TLI/Streams and Remote Clients

The ICL3000 uses TLI/Streams for interprocess communications and
networking. Therefore, when starting a remote server or a remote
client, you must give the following startup options:

For a Remote Server (proserve):

proserve <dbname> -S <service> -H <host> -N TLI -Nd /dev/tcp


For a Remote Client (mpro):

mpro <dbname> -S <service> -H <host> -N TLI -Nd /dev/tcp


The -Nd /dev/tcp option is not required on the ICL3000 since it
is the default network device. However, if you use an alternate
device, you must specify the -Nd (Network Device) option.


2) X-Windows

In order to build an X-Windows module using PROBUILD, you must
choose TLI as well as X-Windows from the Configurable Elements
menu.


3) 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 the following code
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.
