• tutorial
4. Use the following commands to create a new group and to copy any existing HP
ALLBASE/4GL system files from the current S-file group to this new group. The S-file
group is then purged so the updated S-files can be copied into the HP4S group. The
existing S-files are saved in case you forget to save all your applications.
:NEWGROUP HP4OLDS
:HP4SCOPY.HP4GL.SYS HP4S HP4OLDS &
:PURGEGROUP HP4S
Developer Systems: After Running AUTOINST
Complete the following steps after running AUTOINST and after saving your
ALLBASE/4GL applications. You will lose your HP ALLBASE/4GL applications if the
following steps are performed before you run AUTOINST or save your HP ALLBASE/4GL
applications.
1. Update the HP4GL account. You must be logged into the HP4GL account.
:HP4BLD.HP4GL.SYS
HP4BLD creates several groups within the account. After creating the groups, the utility
copies several files from the SYS account into the newly created groups.
2. Set the system variable HP4SPATH to point to the group containing the HP
ALLBASE/4GL S files.
:SETVAR HP4SPATH “HP4S”
3. Load the system definitions:
:HP4ATOS.PUB.SYS “-U ADMINIST
:PASSWORD < SYSTEM.PUB”
4. Load the application source:
:HP4ATOS.PUB.SYS “-U DEVELOPER-USER
:PASSWORD -A APPLICATION1
:SECURITY-CODE < APP1.PUB”
. . .
:HP4ATOS.PUB.SYS “-U DEVELOPER-USER
:PASSWORD -A APPLICATIONN
:SECURITY-CODE < APP N.PUB”

each application and use the GENERATE ALL feature.
You may need to migrate all of your ALLBASE/SQL databases before you can use HP
ALLBASE/4GL to regenerate your applications. Check with the ALLBASE/SQL
installation instructions to see if your databases need to be migrated.

for the system are overwritten by the defaults provided by the new ALLBASE/4GL system.
