Eloquence MPE migration utilities (2002-08-17)
----------------------------------------------

The archives in this directory provide the equivalent to
the Eloquence DBINFO and DBEXPORT utilities. Both source
code and compiled versions for MPE are available.

The utilities can also be used with Eloquence using the 
TurboIMAGE compatibility extension.

DBEXPORT is used to export the database content to a flat file.
It provides a convenient means to move your data base content
to the Eloquence data base.
This version should be used with Eloquence A.07.00 and supports 
all item types.

Usage: DBEXPORT [-p password] database [set [...]]
Specify the -help command line option to get information on usage.

Documentation:

DBINFO provides lists the data sets for the specified data base
including data set name, type, number of entries and capacity.

Usage: DBINFO [-p password] database [set [...]]
Specify the -help command line option to get information on usage.


The C source code is available as well. It should compile
and work with TurboIMAGE on MPE and HP-UX, Linux and Windows
using the Eloquence TurboIMAGE compatibility option.

When compiling on MPE 6.0, the Makefile must be changed to
activate the HAS_LONG_LONG=0 as the HP C compiler does not
support the long long data type.

Source files:
  hp3kinfo.c     - similar to the Eloquence dbinfo utility
  hp3kexport.c   - similar to the Eloquence dbexport utility
  Makefile       - MPE makefile


Archive files:
  hp3k20020817src.tar     - source code
  hp3ksrc.tar             - short cut
  hp3k20020817bin70.tar   - compiled on MPE 7.0, tar format
  hp3kb70.tar             - short cut
  HP3KB70                 - compiled on MPE 7.0, STORE format


This version fixes some issues with the 20020416 version:

* use DBOPEN mode 5
* strip group and account from default export filenames
* MPE requires 16 bit alignment for data set names


Enjoy!
