Default Re: [Info-Ingres] Index storage structures - 03-06-2009 , 06:47 AM






c == compressed, but you'll have to check the manual if that means key
and data compression or not for the given structure.

Subject: [Info-Ingres] Index storage structures

Before asking a potentially really dumb question and risk of a sounding
like a complete ingres newbie I performed this test..


* create index idx_customer_firstname on customer (first_name) with
structure = heap ;\g
Executing . . .

E_US14C1 CREATE INDEX: Bad storage structure 'heap'. The valid storage
structure names are [c]btree, [c]isam, [c]hash.



ummmm
What does the [c] mean?

Default [Info-Ingres] Report Writer - PCL to PDF - 03-06-2009 , 08:12 AM






Whoa...

OK... Sorry... I thought for a second Paul said "clothes are optional"...


Anyway, the boss in the office has asked me to investigate converting
some of our report writer printouts into PDF.

Thing is, we use PCL coding in most of our reports and so I need to ask
for help.

Can anyone please give me some advice or examples on PCL to PDF
conversion on a linux server? Or should I change the rw code to maybe
generate html code and then convert that to pdf? Is it possible to
generate pdf files from rw code?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Andrew.

Your simplest solution might be to look for a PDF pseudo-printer driver.
I'm sure such things exist for Linux, but the one I use extensively on
Windows is CutePDF. You print as usual, except instead of being sent to
a real printer the output gets sent to a PDF file. It is endlessly
useful.

The new dynamic query cache only works with prepared statements. If
questions aren't prepared the dynamic query caching feature has no
effect.

We use some free software on solaris which should also be available for
linux.
enscript - convert text files to PostScript
ps2pdf - ps2pdf - Convert PostScript to PDF using ghostscript
ps2pdf12 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.2 (Acrobat 3-and-
later compatible) using ghostscript
ps2pdf13 - Convert PostScript to PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4-and-
later compatible) using ghostscript

enscript -v -B $land -M A4 --download-font=letgothl.pfb \
--margins=0:0:0:0 --font=LetterGothicLine$fsiz -o $pfile $ifile

ps2pdf $pfile $ofile

rm -f $pfile

That is a fairly significant nuance I had overlooked. :-(

Hi All,

I've added some more changes to the wiki entry. Specifically tarted up
the Database Rules section and added headings for events and sequences.

Thanks to whoever added the bullet points to the 'Tables Section', looks
a lot neater.

Marty

Ok, I'll come clean: I added the bullet points. I have now gone on to
populate the DBP section. Hope you don't mind.

Hi Jeremy,



I noticed the DBP stuff this morning, looks good too!



Well done. There are planty of other sections you might like to do. I've
scattered some topic headings in the area, but feel free to fill them in
or add more.



Marty
