We are pleased to announce the release of Recital 10.0.2.
Here is a brief list of features and functionality that you will find in the 10.0.2 release.
- New commands
SAVE/RESTORE DATASESSION [TO variable]
CONNECT "connectString"
DISCONNECT - New functions (OData compatible)
startsWith(haystack as character, needle as character)
endsWith(haystack as character, needle as character)
indexOf(haystack as character, needle as character)
substringOf(haystack as character, needle as character)
concat(expC1, expC2) - New system variables
_LASTINSERTEDSYNCNUM - Enhanced commands
Added CONNSTRING "connectingString" to the USE command to connect to remote servers (Recital, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, ODBC) - Further SQL query optimizer improvements to boost performance
- Performance improvements in Recital Web
- Forced all temporary files into temp directory (improves performance when local tmpfs is used as temp directory and reduces network i/o)
- Fixed cookie and session variable problems in Recital Web
- Fixed problem with temporary files being left after some server queries involving memos and object data types
- Improved performance of the Windows ODBC driver
- Fixed a security flaw in Recital Web

If you have 4 GB or more RAM use the Linux kernel compiled for PAE capable machines. Your machine may not show up total 4GB ram. All you have to do is install PAE kernel package.
This package includes a version of the Linux kernel with support for up to 64GB of high memory. It requires a CPU with Physical Address Extensions (PAE).
The non-PAE kernel can only address up to 4GB of memory. Install the kernel-PAE package if your machine has more than 4GB of memory (>=4GB).
# yum install kernel-PAE
If you want to know how much memory centos is using type this in a terminal:
# cat /proc/meminfo
RTOS()
Syntax
RTOS( [ <workarea> ] )Description
The RTOS() function returns all the fields in the current row as a string. The string will begin with the unique row identifier and then the deleted flag, followed by the data in the record. An optional workarea can be specified, otherwise the current workarea will be usedExample
use backup in 0
use accounts in 0
nrecs=reccount()
for i = 1 to nrecs
if rtos(accounts) != rtos(backup)
debug("record "+recno()+" don't match")
endif

I am pleased to finally report that the Centos release of Redhats 5.3 has been built and is available for download from http://www.centos.org/
The highlights of this release can be found at the following URL: http://www.redhat.com
The main areas of interest in my opinion excluding critical secirty fixes are:
- Updated hardwaresupport support for the new Intel Core i7 (Nehalem) chips
- Beefed up virtualiseation support increasing CPU and Ram limits of Virtual machines.
- Inclusion of the fully open sourced OpenJDK. This makes Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 the first enterprise-ready solution with a fully open source Java stack when combined with JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.
For those who already have Centos 5.2 installed you can simply receive the update via Yum.
Before you do the following, check that you do not have 3rd party repo's and the Centos-testing repo enabled.
You can display the currently enabled repo's using the following command.
$ yum repolist
Then as root at the prompt type:
$ yum update

So, to create and configure Recital ODBC datasources, you need to use the Window 32 bit ODBC Data Source Administrator or Recital's own Recital Universal ODBC Manager (32-bit).
The Window 32 bit ODBC Data Source Administrator is %windir%\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
The Recital Universal ODBC Manager (32-bit) can be accessed from the Control Panel (icon view).
We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Recital 10.0.1.
Included in this version are:
- Improved SQL query optimizer
- *New* apache plugin for building Recital web apps on x86_64 (mod_recital64.so)
- Performance improvements in connections to Recital Server and Recital Web.
- Recital ODBC driver performance improvements and bug fixes
- Miscellaneous bug fixes
Existing Recital 10 users can download the patch file and apply it to an existing installation.
Enjoy!
- New MD5( expC ) function to calculate an MD5 crypto key from any character expression
- New MD5FILE( expC ) function calculates an MD5 crypto key for a given filename. If the filename is a pattern e.g *.* it will calculate the key across all files matching the pattern
- New mod_recital.so available for using Recital Web on linux x86_32
- New mod_recital64.so available for using Recital Web on linux x86_64
