ADS Rdd problems

[AHF]

I've just finished converting a big application to xharbour and it runs wihtout any errors with rmdbfcdx rdd.

I'v tried first with ADs rdd local server (the code is the same) but I've given up because I had all kind of problems :

Index keys repetition
Index corruption
Functions that work diferently
etc.

The exact same code with rmdbfcdx or dbfcdx it runs ok.

Does anyone had such experience?

I, and many other people, use ADS both with Local Server and Client Server. I do not believe there are any known bugs at this time, at least for most operations.

Please make sure you look at the documentation and have setup the configuration for ADS properly. It should be relatively flawless.

I 've check and recheck everything, adslocal config file, collation, etc.
I've contacted ads suport, nothing !

I can't find out a reason for these problems.

I know however that when I lock the records in one function and I replace them in another index entries are repteated. The fields being replaced are not index keys!!

Do you have any tricks or tips to help find out what might be the problem?

It seems to me that by the evolution of the sqlrdd that this will be the future for xharbour developers. What do you think ?

I'm satisfied with ADS and with its performance for clients with multiple workstations. I'd rather not go to SQL personally. My reason is strictly support ... its so nice to be able to fix a single DBF and have my client up and running quickly.

I've done nothing unusual in the implementation. Look at the documentation for the setup guidelines / sample and be sure you have the lib files included.

Ok. But the problems I have are related to ADS local server. I didn't tryed remote server.
