320.0. "DDS & V2.4" by UTROP1::STEENIS_M () Wed Mar 25 1992 10:23

    
    
    Hi,
    
    Can somebody give me an answer to thew following question :
    
    Goal : 	I want to integrate the DDS functionality of ALL-IN-1 
    		V3.0 in ALL-IN-1 V2.4.
    
    Reason :	The reason behind this is to optimize the capability 
    		to do world searches from ALL-IN-1 IOS V2.4.
    
    Question :	Has anybody done this before ?
    		How much work will be involved (forms, scripts, 
    		.OBJ) ?
    
    Regards,

    Why not just upgrade to V3.0?  I don't know if what you want to do is
    technically feasible without access to base code.... which isn't
    possible in the field.

    Martin,
    
    Since v3.0 hasn't shipped yet then I doubt whether anyone has even
    thought about this let alone tried this... and as Tony says without
    access to the sources and a BLISS compiler it's impossible let alone
    the fact that you'd never be able to get hold of them.
    
    Oh and it wouldn't be just the OADDS object you'd need some of teh MAIL
    modules also and since those have lots of changes in them for Shared
    Filing and SMU and .. so you'd need the CABINET modules and since those
    have changes in them for the FCS you'd need that and before long you'd
    have the whole v3.0 kit.
    
    Wait for v3.0 and then upgrade as they say patience is a virtue
    
    But of course I know nothing about DDS (:==:)

320.3DDS and V2.4...UTROP1::STEENIS_MThu Apr 16 1992 10:0140
    
    Hi Andrew & Tony,
    
    "Just wait for V3.0"...
    
    The customer that wants better DDS behaviour implemented, just 
    upgraded to ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Dutch (Nederlands).
    We expect ALL-IN-1 IOS V3.0 Nederlands not to be available before 
    the end of this calender year, probably later...
    
    As you state, lots of changes appeared in the new V3.0 forms, 
    named data & bliss code of the Electronic Mail Subsystem.
    
    The reason for my question is the fact we implemented DDS for the 
    whole customer ALL-IN-1 population.
    We want to implement consistant use of DDS from ALL-IN-1 IOS, 
    without the inconsistant behavior like : first search remote 
    addressee on World Search node; next time find this addressee in 
    cache, using different ALL-IN-1 options... 
    The V3.0 DDS behavior of ALL-IN-1 is much more consistant in this 
    area...
    
    But, as I see and referring to your answers, I'll wait for 
    ALL-IN-1 V3.0.
    By the way, we disabled all DDS caches on DDS Local Nodes to force 
    consistent DDS behavior...our World search nodes can handle it !
    
    FYI :
    
    Lots of departemental ALL-IN-1 systems are being installed at the 
    moment. The total population will grow to �5000 ALL-IN-1 IOS Users 
    in the coming 1� year.
    Currently the ALL-IN-1 population consists of �1300 users. Also 
    ICL adressees and external mail users are registered in the DDS 
    database.
    
    
    Regards,
