So, Joe, why not contribute the Architect Source to the MPE community as
Open Source, and maybe someone will make it work with 8.39, 8.49 etc?
 
Regards
 
Neil

Hi all,
 
my understanding of the situation is ( paraphrased from correspondence with
Conrad ) that there will not be a PowerHouse Architect for 8.39. Architect
customers can continue to use the 8.19 version (running under the 8.19
version of PowerHouse 4GL) to maintain data definitions and generate PDL
source code that can then be compiled under PowerHouse 4GL 8.39.
 
In current plans for the PowerHouse 4GL 8.49 for MPE/iX release, it is hoped
that it will be possible to include the ability to use PHD data dictionaries
(together with the POW application for maintaining them) as well as the
current PDC data dictionaries... giving MPE/iX customers the same choice
that OpenVMS customers will have as they upgrade to PowerHouse 4GL 8.30. PHD
with POW will allow for all of the functional aspects of Architect in terms
of dictionary management, less the reporting side.

Since PowerHouse Architect 8.19 is built on PowerHouse 4GL 8.19, and
PowerHouse 4GL 8.19 will only receive development support for 12 months
following the release of PowerHouse 4GL 8.39 (sometime this month), this
means that development support for PowerHouse Architect 8.19 will be
available for that same 12 month period following the release of PowerHouse
4GL 8.19, which in turn means that both PowerHouse 4GL 8.19 and PowerHouse
Architect 8.19 will probably be supported only until the end of June 2002.

However, as indicated earlier, it is thought that PHD will be available in
PowerHouse 4GL 8.49 which will be released in the timeframe, December 2001
to February 2002.

Hi John, 

We've had ours for two weeks now but haven't moved it to production yet. 

Why the wait? Architec is not available for 8.39 (and I'm told it never will
be). Therefore, I've got several Architec based jobs that need to be
modified first. 

regards,

I received the PH 8.39 release for MPE/iX today.  Does anyone on the list 
have any info (good or bad) to share on upgrading to 8.39 from 8.19? 

Thanks. 

John
