Existing QM data on ScarletDME 64
Izzi Zman
Hello,
I'm posting this to the "Original" MV group as well as Don's new
sdme64 forum below until it gets some more traction !
ScarletDME
64 help ! I've went ahead and built an Ubuntu 22-04 VM and
loaded DME with the most recent installer and it went without a
hitch !
I
have a small application that was written in BASIC running on a
Linux Mint 18 Server with QM 3.o. Nothing QMClient wise just in
BASIC. I backed up the app via tar and moved it to the DME
Server and layed it back down. I quickly setup some F-pointers
for some data files to do a quick check. When I do a list
statement on the File it doesn't error out but just shows "0"
Records. Same with listing the Dict.
Is
there some kind of conversion or option to salvage the files,
structure, etc...without having to re-create them. I know there
are probably file structure differences between commercial
version and this, as Don had suggested to me.
Any
thoughts appreciated.
Thanks,
Izzi

There are known 64-bit conversion issues. Personally, I've been hit by a
case sensitivity bug - comparing lower case does not appear to work.
It's known that code compiled under 64bit won't work on the 32bit version.
So it's possible it's nothing to do with OpenQM, and everything to do
with 64bit glitches.
Let us know what you find, if my plans at work come off, I'm going to
have to QA all this stuff :-)
Cheers,

Where can I find the latest/last 32DME ?

playing with 64bit, so you might hit a glitch or two - come back if you
do - and see how it goes.
There's something dodgy with "make install", but that's probably 64bit
only, so all being well it'll work fine.
All this stuff is nice, though. It means we're getting close to the
final hurdle, and people are using Scarlet. That's great news ...
