Does anyone have a document describing the filename conventions for BAAN 3 under HPUX (BISAM files)?

Specifically, here's what I've found and I'm looking for clarification/validation:
"o" = Filenames beginning with an "o" are "Object files".
"u" = Filenames beginning with a "u" are "Utility files".
"f" = Filenames beginning with an "f" are "Form files".
"r" = Filenames beginning with an "r" are "Report files".
"p" = Filenames beginning with a "p" are "Program script files".
"m" = Filenames beginning with a "m" are "Menu files".
"i" = Filenames beginning with an "i" are for ?????
Thanks,
Brian

i are include files
u are used for where used information and are created during the compilation (as far as I know)

Hi Brian,

obviously this naming convention of Baan for SW objects is independent of the database backend used. If bisam or not, Baan is storing SW components always in the file system and the naming convention is always the same.

Hello,

convention in standard is:


/datapath/company_no:

tcpclp tdhltc ttccom ttdpur ttffst ttiedm ttpbop ttracs ttrtfm ttssma
tcpcom tdhlus ttccon ttdrpl ttfgld ttigrt ttphrs ttrcde ttrtoc ttsspf

tdhinv tpsrou ttdltc ttffas tticrp ttirpt ttpptc ttrtco ttrwoh
tdhitm ttcapi ttdpst ttffbs tticst ttisfc ttpzzz ttrtfc ttrwrc

t for table
2 chars for package
3 chars for module

But remember, you are able to define another location for specific tables.

Quick Reference: pathname() (http://www.baanboard.com/programmers_manual_baanerp_help_functions_directory_file_operations_pathname)

I noticed the wiki help is not the latest-

file_basename The name of the file that must be found.

The file name must begin with xppmmm where pp is a package code, mmm is a module code, and x is a single character that corresponds to the file type, as shown in column one of the following list:

Character Description file_type argument

d data/domain definition “D”
r report “O”
o object “O”
f form “S”
m menu “M”
p program script “P”
i include file “P”
b additional file “B”
