[Download-List] segmentation fault

[Bessler-Fromm, Marc]

I think I encountered a similar problem a couple of months ago. Try
switching the single and double quotes in your d/l statement.
 
DOWNLOAD STUDENTS EVAL "SUBR('DELTA.MU.DELTA.CREDITS',STUDENTS.ID)"
 
If this fixes it for you, then it a the same bug Dave hopes to address
in the next release. If not, maybe something else.

Subject: [Download-List] segmentation fault


O.K., I'm really puzzled on this one. 
 
I have a virtual field that calls a subroutine. In LIST statements it
works fine, but DOWNLOAD gives a segmentation fault.
 
First the error:
 
:GET.LIST TEST.DVP
10 records retrieved to list 0.
>DOWNLOAD STUDENTS STU.DMD.CREDITS FORMAT FIXED
DOWNLOAD version 7.12
Using input file STUDENTS
Output to screen
 
Segmentation fault
ibmp630:/datatel/live/collive $
 
The virtual field code is:
 
SUBR("DELTA.MU.DELTA.CREDITS",STUDENTS.ID)
 
And the DELTA.MU.DELTA.CREDITS subroutine code is:
 
SUBROUTINE DELTA.MU.DELTA.CREDITS(RESULT,ID.NO)
*  TAKES AN ID NUMBER AND RETURNS A TOTAL NUMBER CREDITS EARNED FOR
*  DELTA MU DELTA REPORT
COMMON /DMDCRED/ OPENED, F.TRANS.GROUP, F.STUD.ACAD.CRED,
F.STU.ACAD.LEVEL, ACAD.LEVELS
IF NOT(OPENED) THEN
  OPEN '','TRANSCRIPT.GROUPINGS' TO F.TRANS.GROUP
     ELSE STOP "UNABLE TO OPEN TRANSCRIPT GROUPING FILE"
  OPEN '','STUDENT.ACAD.CRED' TO F.STUD.ACAD.CRED
     ELSE STOP "UNABLE TO OPEN STUDENT.ACAD.CRED FILE"
  OPEN '','STUDENT.ACAD.LEVELS' TO F.STU.ACAD.LEVEL
     ELSE STOP "UNABLE TO OPEN STUDENT.ACAD.LEVELS FILE"
  READ TG.REC FROM F.TRANS.GROUP, 'MB'
    ELSE TG.REC = ''
  ACAD.LEVELS = TG.REC<2>
  OPENED = 1
END
*
X.TOTAL = 0
RESULT = 0
ACAD.LEVEL.COUNT = DCOUNT(ACAD.LEVELS, at VM)
FOR LEVEL = 1 TO ACAD.LEVEL.COUNT
  READ STA.REC FROM F.STU.ACAD.LEVEL,ID.NO:'*':ACAD.LEVELS<1,LEVEL> THEN
    STUDENT.ACAD.CRED = STA.REC<10>
    CRED.COUNT = DCOUNT(STUDENT.ACAD.CRED, at VM)
    FOR I = 1 TO CRED.COUNT
      READ STC.REC FROM F.STUD.ACAD.CRED,STUDENT.ACAD.CRED<1,I> THEN 
        IF STC.REC<13> GT 0 THEN
          X.TOTAL += STC.REC<13>
        END
      END
    NEXT I
  END
NEXT LEVEL
*
IF X.TOTAL THEN 
  RESULT = OCONV(X.TOTAL,"MD05") 
END
*
RETURN RESULT
END
 
If I try to do a DOWNLOAD using an EVAL, instead of the virtual field, I
get:
 
:GET.LIST TEST.DVP
10 records retrieved to list 0.
>DOWNLOAD STUDENTS EVAL 'SUBR("DELTA.MU.DELTA.CREDITS",STUDENTS.ID)'
DOWNLOAD version 7.12

It should be returning some number (if only 0) instead of the null
strings.  If I do a LIST statement I get:
 
:GET.LIST TEST.DVP
10 records retrieved to list 0.

I have messed around with the subroutine code (there didn't used to be
common, and it didn't used to verify the presence of data) to no avail.
Any ideas?
 
Thanks
 
Don
