HP ELOQUENCE A.06.00 fixpack 1
Revision: 97-10-09

----------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch fixes some problems in A.06.00 as distributed on
HP Eloquence media before datecode 71009. This fix is already
included with HP Eloquence media starting with datecode 71009.

For more information about HP Eloquence media datecode, please
refer to document http://www.hp-eloquence.com/support/datecode.html

The files in this patch set should replace the files originally
distributed with HP Eloquence A.06.00.

Platforms: HP-UX, Linux, Windows


Fixed problems:
---------------

* Using structure members could result in an internal
failure and program abort.

* QFIND on a master data set resulted in a core dump.

* A new error message 905 ("No such member") has been added.
This will distinguish referencing an undeclared member variable
from a undefined type. Previously both conditions resulted in a
runtime error 900.

* The database server could fail to keep track of user licenses
so connections could be rejected with an error message ("No license 
slot available").

* The database server had a problem with dbpurge. While the
database was removed, the entry in the sysdb table (server catalog)
was not updated properly so a database with the same name could not
be created again.

* DBGET mode 6 could result in a database server panic.
("Assertion failed: data.size == sizeof(recno_t)")

* schema now enforces the minimum record length correctly
The HP Eloquence A.06.00 database requires a minimum record
length of 4 bytes.
