10.2A SP2

Posted by Roger Blanchard on 10-Sep-2009 08:57

Is anyone having issues with SP2?

Installs fine on some machines but not others (call open with TS).

The Visual Designer will incorrectly put generated code for a pbs definition in the comments section of InitializeComponent. You have to manually move it back. (Call open with TS)

Attempting to open a control group from the toolbox will take up to 10 - 15 seconds where it was immediate before. (Call open with TS)

Running a NEW GUI app is very slow compared to when running with SP1.

Did you start OEA with -clean (once)?

I had some strange issues as well today on a machine, where I didn't.

I actually use the -clean option every time.

We were just informed that 10.2A02 for Windows is being pulled.

Where did you hear that from ? We were due to deploy A02 this weekend ....

They must be receiving many calls on SP2 and found a problem with the build. In our labs it is hit and miss with SP2 installing successfully. The exact quote for TS was "I got word from dev that 10.2a02 for Windows has been put on hold. We should have a replacement and/or workaround by tomorrow.".

I am not sure if it is related to the installation issues or some other issues.

Let me clarify.

We have discovered (through customer reports) an issue with the install of OpenEdge Architect in 10.2A02.  Today we temporarily put a 'hold' on further downloads of 10.2A02 until we could completely understand the issue and how to address it.  We now have that understanding and are in the process of publishing information.  Here is a preview of it in a nutshell:

Depending on your machine configuration you may receive an error during install regarding the Java Runtime Environment.  If you encounter this error then your Eclipse environment will not get the right OpenEdge plugins.  The solution is to add DLC\jre\bin to the system PATH before rerunning the installation for 102a02. Similarly, if you downloaded 10.2A02 and have yet to install it, you need to add DLC\jre\bin to the system PATH before the initial install.

We will reopen the downloads as soon as we get this completely documented on that site.  Thank you for your patience while we do this, and please let me know if you have further questions.

      -Martha

Thank you Martha, when we did not have that installation issue, there's no need to worry, right?

That is correct.

Mike,

In our lab we are not having issues running our app on 10.2A02 as we have been running QA since last Friday (compiled .r code). However, we are experiencing performance issues in OE Architect as well as code generation issues with the Visual Designer.

Good luck.

Hi Roger,

what exactly is slower in OEA? I had the feeling that the Visual Designer got faster in loading documents.

I'm using it since Friday as well, not really in a lab, just in day to day work. Today a customer of mine faced strange issues with launch configurations, complaiing about proMsgs file not available. I wasn't able to reproduce that at all here.

We have our own ABL controls we have added to the toolbox in a group called ORS Controls. When you attempt to open the group it takes 10 - 15 seconds to open where it used to take about a second if that. I also was told (have not seen myself) by another developer that when attempting to run a procedure or class from OE Architect that it is unbearably slow.

As far as the code generation issue if you look at the notes below taken from InitializeComponent you can see where the definitions for the PBS were incorrectly added here versus at the top of the class.

/* NOTE: The following method is automatically generated.

We strongly suggest that the contents of this method only be modified using the

Visual Designer to avoid any incompatible modifications.

Modifying the contents of this method using a code editor w

DEFINE PRIVATE VARIABLE bsPrice AS Progress.Data.BindingSource NO-UNDO.

i

DEFINE PRIVATE VARIABLE bsPrice2 AS Progress.Data.BindingSource NO-UNDO.

ll invalidate any support for this file. */

We haven't had such an issue.

I will let you know the outcome as we have a call open with TS.

Thanks.
