Environment

Product: OpenEdge Version: 11.6.x, 11.7.x, 12.x OS: Windows

Question/Problem Description

Using %DLC%/src/extractpl.bat for OpenEdge.Net.pl fails.

Using %DLC%/src/extractpl.bat for OpenEdge.Core.pl fails.

extractpl throws error messages 43 609 1924 indicating that files cannot be found when extracting OpenEdge.Net or OpenEdge.Core procedure libraries

Not all files are extracted from the OpenEdge.Net or OpenEdge.Core procedure libraries when using the %DLC%/src/extractpl.bat script

Steps to Reproduce

Open proenv prompt and run following commands: proenv>cd %DLC%\src proenv>extractpl OpenEdge.Net.pl

Cause

The extractpl.bat script does not create the necessary sub-folders for OpenEdge.Net.pl or OpenEdge.Core.pl, which results in errors 43 609 1924 when the script extracts the procedure library content.

Resolution

Until the fix is available, use the workaround below.

Workaround

Workaround 1:

Use the attached extractPl.p to create a .bat or .sh file that will extract all programs in the procedure library. This program is intended to be run in batch mode.

To run extractPl.p

proenv>[prowin | pro | _progres ] -b -p extractPl.p -param <pathtolibraryfile>.pl[|debug]

Then simply run the generated script.
The script is generated into the same folder as the .pl file and is named like: prlb<Library name>Extract.[bat | sh]

For example:

Library path: /usr/dlc/src/prodict.pl
Script file: /usr/dlc/src/prlbprodictExtract.sh

You can add the debug option, following a pipe symbol (|) to tell the program to leave all temp files it generated on disk.

When this finishes it appends a file named prlberrs.txt into the session's temp directory (-T). If -T is not used, the file is generated into the working directory of the session.

The prlberrs.txt file contains verbose output from any interaction with the prolib executable. This is generated whether or not debug is used. This file should be cleaned up periodically because it is appended.

Workaround 2:
Manually edit the %DLC%/src/extractpl.bat script to create the required directory structure based on the contents of the .pl file.

To extract the OpenEdge.Net procedure library:

In the :OENETLIB section, just before the line: prolib OpenEdge.Net.pl -extract *.*, add the following lines:

mkdir OpenEdge\Net\HTTP\Filter\Auth
mkdir OpenEdge\Net\HTTP\Filter\Payload
mkdir OpenEdge\Net\HTTP\Filter\Writer
mkdir OpenEdge\Net\ServerConnection
mkdir OpenEdge\Web
mkdir OpenEdge\Web\DataObject

To extract the OpenEdge.Core procedure library:

In the :OECORELIB" section, just before the line: prolib OpenEdge.Core.pl -extract *.*, add the following lines:

mkdir OpenEdge\Core\Assertion
mkdir OpenEdge\Logging
mkdir OpenEdge\Logging\Filter
mkdir OpenEdge\Logging\Format
mkdir OpenEdge\Logging\Writer
mkdir OpenEdge\Security

Note: The folders listed above were what was needed when this article was written (11.6 timeframe).

To get a complete list of folders:

proenv>prolib %DLC%\gui\netlib\OpenEdge.Net.pl -list *.* > openedge.net.txt

Alternatively, write a custom script that recreates the directory structure based on the contents of the .pl file, as described in article How to extract files from a procedure library ?.
