1213.0. "*WISH* Method of displaying patch level in ALL-IN-1" by GIDDAY::SETHI (Man from Downunder) Tue Aug 11 1992 02:12

    G'day,
    
    Within ALL-IN-1 there is not a method of finding out what patch(s) have 
    been applied.  The two methods that I can think of are :-)
    
    1. Set def oa$build_share, this directory contains a sub-directory
       called A1PATCH$JOURNALS.DIR;1 which contains all the back up save
       sets like for example K603FCVRUPD1_V24SHARE.BCK, suggesting that
       K603 has been installed.
    
    2. In OA$BUILD_SHARE a data file called A1PATCH$CONFIGURATION.DAT
       contains the history of patches that have been installed.  I can't
       find any form that maps onto it.
    
    Is it possible to enhance the <VERSION function so that it displays
    patch levels ?  In short is it possible to display the patch level of a
    system within ALL-IN-1 ?
                                                            
    Would make life a hell of a lot easier.
    
    Sunil
    
    PS Which Fairy Godmother will make my wish come true :-)
