Dear List:
I got something new in this matter:
I have avoided the crashes by converting the "corrupted" display to ".g" and
back to ".fdf", and deleting the previous outputted files (dedit.log and
whereused.txt).
*.- The "Dedit -where" command always crashes in the same Display (I can see
the progress in the whereused.txt file) and leave an ".m1" zero size garbage
file with the name of the display where it fails.
*.- When I tried to open the same display with the dedit GUI from foxdraw, I
got the same error message.
*.- I tried to get the output file where I want to, by using shell
environment:
"dedit -where /opt/displays/ > /opt/wu_report.txt" but it contains only
information about the dedit software manufacturer, and generates the same
WhereUsed.txt File where I running the application.

The scripts referred to are UNIX scripts. They are a more powerful
version of the DOS batch (.bad, .cmd files).This is one of the reasons
Windows/DOS was referred to as "baby UNIX" in the old days. The most
common is the Bourne shell script. Any UNIX command you can enter from
the command line, you can run in a shell script. There are many books
for shell scripting available on-line, as well as many Foxboro examples
available on your boxes. The MKS shell emulator on new Foxboro Windows
boxes provide you same shell script capability the older UNIX boxes had.

Thank you Patrick.
I'm very newbie in this Foxboro World, and I feel very glad that
I=3DB4m
not alone!.
How can I identify this corrupted display files?
How can I fix it?
About scripts...
When we talk about shell, we are talking about ms command window or XP =
=3D
MKS?
Can anyone give me a script example for this?
I'm sure that I will need a lot help at the beginning but I
really
want to help as I can.

David,
Can't give you much help apart from the fact that I can confirm that on
windows machines (in our case terminal server I/A 8.2) I could not =3D
manage to
get the -wuout argument to work while the exact same command does work =
=3D
on
sun (AW51E I/A 6.3).
I created a shell script which calls dedit and then moves the file to =
=3D
the
desired directory (as would have been specified with the -wuout =3D
argument.
Also we had crashes of dedit in the past but were always able to =3D
pinpoint
this to a corrupted display file or a display which contained 'off =3D
screen
elements'.
Normally it's very robust. In our case it runs on a daily base to =3D
retrieve
all display linking on hundreds of displays.
Kind regards,
Patrick Martens

Dear List:
=3D09
I'm trying to use the Dedit "where used" report. It give me two
problems:
*.- The -wuout argument seems to not work. It always generate a file in
=3D
the
same dir where I am. (when It works...).
*.- Some times (apparently it depends on the display) the application
crashes and send me the message: "DE MFC Application has encountered a
problem and..."=3D09
I have tested it on AW P92 I/A 7.1 and I/A 8.2
Help please.
Atentamente,
