multiple SQL statements to run in one database connection from a Perl or Python program. For more information,

see the README in the Neoview Script samples directory.

Verifying the Installed Version of Neoview Script

To display the installed version of Neoview Script without launching Neoview Script and

connecting to the database platform:

1. Change to the lib directory, which contains the Neoview Script JAR file:

• On Windows, enter:

cd hpnvs-installation-directory\nvscript\lib

hpnvs-installation-directory is the directory where you installed the Neoview

Script software files.

• On Linux or UNIX, enter:

cd hpnvs-installation-directory/nvscript/lib

hpnvs-installation-directory is the directory where you installed the Neoview

Script software files.

2. Enter this command to return version information:

java -jar hpnvs.jar

For example:

C:\>cd install\nvscript\lib

C:\install\nvscript\lib>java -jar hpnvs.jar

T0774_N25(R2.2)_10AUG07_HP_NVS_2007_07_05

C:\install\nvscript\lib>

If the JAR file is inaccessible or the returned version is not supported, see “Installation

Procedures” (page 27).

To display the installed versions of Neoview Script and the Neoview JDBC Type 4 Driver in the

Neoview Script interface:

1. Launch the Neoview Script interface. See Chapter 3 (page 43).

2. Enter the VERSION command to display information about the build versions:

SQL>version

Neoview JDBC Type 4 Driver : T1249_N25(R2.2)_10AUG07_HP_JDBCT4_2007_07_03

Neoview Script : T0774_N25(R2.2)_10AUG07_HP_NVS_2007_07_05

SQL>

If the returned version is not supported, see “Installation Procedures” (page 27).

Setting the Look and Feel of the Neoview Script Interface

To determine the look and feel of the Neoview Script interface, set the -DhpnvsLF property by

using the _JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable. This property affects the formatting of status

messages. This property does not restrict the SQL statements, commands, or syntax that you can

execute in the Neoview Script interface. Each look-and-feel type accepts all the SQL statements,

commands, and syntax that Neoview Script currently supports.
