Greetings and salutations,
I have a problem with my current Roundtable configuration and new applications being developed here. I'll try to be as brief as possible
I have an existing Roundtable database with numerous products. I've configured each product to have at least 2 product modules (one for the dictionary and one for programs). Each of these products have 2 WorkSpaces (DEV and PROD).
Example
Product Pmodules WorkSpaces
mfg mfgdict MFGDEV MFGPROD
mfgcode
dist distdict DISTDEV DISTPROD
distcode
The DEV workspaces are PRIMARY sourced to themselves. The PROD workspaces have the associated DEV for the source.
Problem:
These products were in the past separate and now they need to be able to exchange data between the different databases.
In order to compile properly, programs must only reference databases within their own WS.
(ie How do I reference both the mfg database and the dist database in one program from within Roundtable).
I have figured a way to run programs with input and output parameters; but, not very practical.
Would adding another WS be a solution ?
TIA
