Coredumps and 4GL
Posted in 1998
4GL: 7.20.UD2 Engine: 7.23.UC11 OS: HPUX 10.20 I've just about had it -- hopefully someone out there can pull me back from the brink. 8-) I have a 4gl program that has been running since the 4.1 days. It declares a cursor for an outer loop, then it processes each row. It survived the conversion to 6.0x; now we're running 7.20.UD2. For some reason now it core dumps on me. When I add a few displays (yeah, we're IFMX-debugger-deprived), I'm able to see where it is in the program when it dumps. When I add a few other displays, the location changes. When I clean up the code ( close cursor / free cursor ), it runs a bit longer and then still coredumps. I remember the 'old' (4.1) days where a display or a sleep would "take care" of the problem, but this is ridiculous. Anyone out there have any ideas? TIA John Carlson Informix DBA WHSmith, Inc.
