We have more than one tool that relies on the formatting of the files. While we queue the updates to those for the new format, we’ve had to add a temporary recurring routine that goes through and parses each SMAT file name and creates a symlink to it in the same folder but using the old / previous file name format.

Ideally we’d be able to just supply our desired suffix pattern to Cloverleaf and that would be used when the files are created rather than the suffixes just changing on new Cloverleaf versions. For example, if we could just provide somewhere in the Cloverleaf config that we want a suffix of format <smat base name>_${process}_${site}_%{CCYYMMDDHHMMSS} then Cloverleaf would produce the files named as somethread_myprocess_mysite_20200206064121.smatdb.

We have the same issue / concern. Any news from anyone on this?

We are in identical release and platform situations as Josh, so I’d be interested to know if there is, in fact, a good reason or suggested circumstances to be switching.

I’m not familiar with any SQL commands for that application, however if you wanted to manually check from a terminal / command prompt during the ODBC connection initiation or after it’s established you could use:

For windows, you can run the following from the server:

Code:

netstat -ano

That will display all IPs, ports and owning processes for everything on the box, then you can connect the dots with your Cloverleaf processes.

If you’re running Linux:

Code:

netstat -anp

I use a PHP script to create an html file. Not super straight-forward, but maybe it will help.

I’ve attached the script. To run it, you do:

% php displayVariantHTML.php /path/to/variant >output.html

For example,

% php displayVariantHTML C:quovadxqdx5.7integratorformatshl72.3.1 > output.html

I’ve only used it on cloverleaf 5.7 on Windows, but it usually does the trick on Linux as well. Feel free to hit me back if you run into problems. (I had to rename the extension to .txt to upload it – just change it back after you download it).

Wow…after banging my head against this for awhile, leaving it, hoping for a forum answer…realized it was a silly oversight and that I had accidentally overwritten my test ORU message with an ORM…wow…

Thanks anway! 🙂

Mohammed,

When you set the external editor, make sure and add the “@F” after the editor path. In your example, you would want to use “notepad++ @F”. The @F causes Cloverleaf to pass in the file path to your editor.

Cheers,

Cullen
