Access window library data

shiblydangdang opened this issue 2 years ago · 5 comments

I'm trying to access window library info from HC. I've been using i_ldinp to obtain this but I'm getting SYNEXCEPTION: Unsupported Command in U_RESTORE. I understand this as there's no UI in HC. Is there an alternative way to access data in the window library without loading the window?

I don't know of a completely general answer for you on this, can you be more specific about what you want from the window library? Is it just some specific parts/fields/info or really the whole thing. Could you solve this problem by reading the script file instead of the ism?

I pretty much need everything. I'm currently thinking I'll have an overnight process that uses i_ldinp etc and loads a table with the data from all windows. It seems a shame though if all of the info is already in the window library ism file.

This is probably because your traditional bridge environment is being launched with dbs and so doesn’t support toolkit. If you want to access toolkit code try switching to dbr in your launch script.
