2604.0. "OA-E-BF_NOWORDPERFEC " by UTRTSC::SCHOLLAERT (Think before you shrink) Mon Apr 07 1997 09:02

    Hello,
    
    This weekend I performed a successful ALL-IN-1 upgrade (3.0 to 3.2).
    
    I third party installed the WordPerfect integration.
    
    All worked fine except for printing of WordPerfect files 
    from ALL-IN-1. Print jobs did print, but all formatting 
    was lost. 
    
    We did restart ALL-IN-1 and OA$FORMATTER after the integration
    and after the WPCORP$STARTUP...
    
    To me it looked like ALL-IN-1 did not detect the WordPerfect
    integration. The print jobs got submitted with OA$FMTCTL=2.
    Manually submitting a job an VMS level with OA$FMTCTL=5 resulted in:
    %OA-E-BF_NOWORDPERFEC.
    
    How are ALL-IN-1 (OA$IMAGE) and OA$FORMATTER supposed to
    detect the WordPerfect integration ?
    
    Cheers,

2604.1WPCORP logical nameIOSG::NEWLANDRichard Newland, IOSG, REO2-F/J9Mon Apr 07 1997 11:4422
The presence of the WordPerfect ALL-IN-1 Integration is determined by the
existance of the WPCORP_OA_SHR logical name. 

In OA$MAIN the test for the WPCORP_OA_SHR logical name is done during
initialization.  This sets a global longword, OA$GL_WORDPERFECT, which can
be tested by other modules.  The value of OA$GL_WORDPERFECT is also be
available at the ALL-IN-1 API using a read-only special symbol called
OA$WORDPERFECT. 

What is the value of the OA$WORDPERFECT special symbol, and can you use the
WordPerfect editor from OA$MAIN? 


OA$FORMATTER also tests for the WPCORP_OA_SHR logical name when the
symbiont is initialized.  If WPCORP_OA_SHR exists the shareable image
pointed to by the logical name WPCORP_PTR_SRV is activated and the virtual
address of a routine called WPCORP$SMB_READ_MESSAGE obtained.  If this 
cannot be done successfully then it is assumed that WordPerfect is not 
available.

    Hello Richard,
    
    Thanks for your explanation. 
    
    Problem was caused by an old version of WPPRINT hanging
    around. Customer did run the deintegration of WordPerfect 
    before upgrading, but I looks like not all stuff is always
    removed...
    
    All works fine now.
    
    Cheers,
