[U2] unibasic's sort function

I have a dynamic array built like this:

LIST = ""

KEY = CONDES.DESIGNATION : "*" : CONTRIB.DONOR.DATE : "*" : ID.NO

IF LEN(LIST) = 0 THEN

 LIST = KEY

END ELSE

 LIST :=  <at> AM : KEY

END

When I do:

LIST = SORT(LIST) in Unibasic, compil and run it, it returns LIST=0

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help!

[U2] converting universe files between aix/linux

hey all,
    I am attempting to make a QA virtual universe system and I think I 
am going to have a big Indian/little Indian issue (when moving the 
databases from aiz to linux), I seem recall that there was some tool 
available to convert the databases but for the life of me I cannot 
remember what its called.

Also if anyone has any tools they already developed to do this and would 
be willing to share I would greatly appreciate it as well as any gotchas 
you may have run across doing such a conversion

thanks

RE: [U2] unibasic's sort function

I am not sure about the  SORT, but I would suggest simply:

LIST = ""
KEY = ....
LIST<-1> = KEY

RE: [U2] unibasic's sort function

The SORT function (which I'm embarrassed to say I didn't think existed,
and I've been coding unibasic for the last 8 or 9 years!) sorts the data
passed into it; there isn't a return value. So

SORT(LIST)
CRT LIST

does work. Your original program sets LIST to 0 because LIST is set to
the return result of the sort statement - perhaps this should throw a
compiler error? Or perhaps there's an undocumented return code if the
data could not be sorted?

RE: [U2] unibasic's sort function

I am confused by the SORT, but I am guessing that something like this would work:

LIST = ""
(some selection criteria)
LOOP
WHILE READNEXT KEY
   LOCATE KEY IN LIST<1> BY "AL" SETTING POS ELSE
      INS KEY BEFORE LIST<POS>
   END
REPEAT

This builds you list and sorts it all at once.

Based on the flavor you are running, you might need to replace:
LIST<1> with just LIST

If you can build your select in a "SELECT" command, you could replace the LOCATE logic with a simple:
   LIST<-1> = KEY

Re: [U2] converting universe files between aix/linux

Hi Doug,

The tool you are looking for is format.conv and it runs from the Linux 
command line. You can find it documented in the UniVerse System 
Administation manual.

RE: [U2] unibasic's sort function

On my ancient version of UD (5.2) I need to code it using a throw away;
JUNK = SORT(LIST)

[U2] [UV] Where have all the printers gone?

Universe 10.2.4

In the process of setting up a new printer I've noticed that most of my 
printers have no entry in &DEVICE&. Where is UV storing them these days?

RE: [U2] unibasic's sort function

I didn't think it existed either, that's pretty darned cool. I looked
for it in the BASIC.HELP file, and it isn't there. Is it a UniData
thing?
