932.0. "Augmenting the TPU section file for Editing" by SHALOT::WELTON (Boyfriend Gone Solo) Thu Jun 25 1992 17:13

    Yo,
    
    I need to know how to get my old TPU section to work on our
    just-upgraded ALL-IN-1 V3.0 system.  Previously, we had the OATPU
    integration in place and all I had to do was define a logical and life
    was groovy.  Now the default EVE section is forced upon me and I'd like
    to "augment" it with things from my old section file.
    
    What do I do?
    
    athanks,

    Douglas me old mate here's the answer from our friends in Engineering
    to this one:
    
    PROBLEM:

    When TPU is ALL-IN-1 editor previously defined section file (TPU$SECTION)
    is not used.

    ANALYSIS:

    Create an EVE section file and define the logical TPU$SECTION to point to
    it. It is used when accessed outside ALL-IN-1, but ALL-IN-1 seems not to
    use the EVE section file.

    SOLUTION:
     \This has been reported to Engineering.

    This is the correct behaviour. The section file used by ALL-IN-1 must be
    used. ALL-IN-1's section file contains the callbacks to ALL-IN-1 to support
    such things as UDPs and ALL-IN-1 GOLD functions. It also contains the
    support to implement the security checking necessary for the ALL-IN-1
    environment.

    Since ALL-IN-1 needs a special section file, it deliberately ignores the
    TPU$SECTION logical. Instead, it checks the OA$TPU_SECTION logical.
    However, this logical *must* point to a section file that has been derived
    from the original ALL-IN-1 section file.

    Regards,

932.2Oh come on, there's got to be a way...ANGLIN::CARLSONTue May 03 1994 23:029
    Where does the OA$TPU_SECTION logical point to?
    
    Is there a way to overlay the original ALL-IN-1 TPU section file with
    one that is more appropriate to our users?
    
    Can we re-define the OA$TPU_SECTION logical to point to a different
    keyboard mapping file per job or process without breaking ALL-IN-1?
