GOAL:
How to perform a batch ASCII dump
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
Progress 8.x
FIX:
The programs that the Data Dictionary uses to create .d and .df files are called dump_d.p and dump_df.p and these are located in %DLC/src/prodict.
Create a small program containing the command to run the dump program eg:
run <path_to_file>/dumpd(f).p (+ parameters).
quit.
Then run the program using mbpro eg:
mbpro <databaseName> -p <./yourProgram>
You may want to specify > outputfile or > /dev
ull to avoid 516 messages, the files will be still be dumped:
** Attempt to write with no current output destination. (516)
The parameters required for the .df and .d files are detailed in the comments at the top of each program.
