5266.0. "suppress notification window ?" by PRSSUD::THOMAS () Fri Jun 25 1993 12:05

	Hello,

	One of my customer doesn't want to give access to the standard 
	notification window because he has developped a specific one.
	Is there a possible way to suppress this choice (DECmcc Notification 
	Services) in the Applications menu.
	
	thanks for your help,

	Brigitte

I remember from somewhere that the notification window gets added to the menu
iff there is a specific entry in the dictionary.  If that entry were deleted,
then there would be no notification window available.

You can do the following command to see if the entry is
in the dictionary::

DAP> show class mcc Subclass ICONICMAP Subclass 
      APPLICATION Subclass NOTIFICATION_PM


Class (1) : MCC
     Subclass (2) : ICONICMAP
       Subclass (2) : APPLICATION
-------> Subclass (2) : NOTIFICATION_PM
           Definition (3) : PRESENTATION_NAME
           Definition (3) : INSTANCE_REQUIRED
           Definition (3) : DYNAMIC
           Attribute (5) : COMPONENTNAME 1
           Attribute (5) : COMPONENTVERSION 2
           Attribute (5) : ALERTABLE 3

    The code from inside the iconic map is...
    
    
          status = mcc_aes_set (&p_aes, &count, 0, p_instance, &type);
          if (status ISNT MCC_S_NORMAL)
             break;
    
          /*-----------------------------------------------------------------*/
          /* If Notification Services in dictionary, assumption is made that */
          /*  user has a kit encompassing more than just Director.          */
          /*-----------------------------------------------------------------*/
          if (*(long *)p_instance->mcc_a_pointer IS MCC_K_CLASS_IMPM_NOTIFICATION)
            pml_console_globals.notif_svc_avail = MCC_K_TRUE;
    
          status = map_appl_create_link (p_aes, p_instance, p_def_bfr);
    
    
5266.4Help, Iconic Map crashes...EVTIS9::ROGGEBANDWhile my guitar gently weepsWed Jul 21 1993 04:4217
    Hello,
    
    We tried removing the Notification PM from the dictionary at the
    customer site, this caused an immediate "crash" of the Iconic Map PM
    with the following message
    
    Exception: Invalid memory address (dce/thd)
    
    This happened as soon as we tried to open a domain.
    
    Any clues ? Any other way to suppress the notification window?
    
    We are running PNM200 1.3 on Ultrix.
    
    Regards,
    
    Philippe.
