Installation Instructions

The following were taken from http://hardhats.org/tools/vpe/vpe_db2.html so that they could be edited.


V P E Version 12

The Victory Programmer Environment consists of 2 files that are saved in MSM format, but that can be read by the MUMPS implementations mentioned below.

  • VPE_12_Rtns.MGR . . . Programmer Shell & VPE Modules
  • VPE_12_Rtns.PRD . . . Fileman files that support some modules

MUMPS SYSTEMS OTHER THAN CACHE and GTM:

Load VPE_12_Rtns.MGR into your Manager account and DO ^ZVEMBLD for setup instructions. Load VPE_12_Rtns.PRD into the account where you plan to use VPE and DO ^VEEMINIT to setup Fileman files (optional).

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION CACHE SYSTEMS:

Carefully read the instructions for loading the routines Load both VPE_12_Rtns.MGR and VPE_12_Rtns.PRD into the account where you plan to use VPE. It is necessary to instruct Cache to use the Cache format when specifying the type of routines. DO NOT presume you need to use MSM since the routines were saved in MSM formatting. DO ^ZVEMBLD for setup instructions. DO ^VEEMINIT to setup Fileman files (optional).

GTM SYSTEMS

Load both VPE_12_Rtns.MGR and VPE_12_Rtns.PRD into your GTM environment. DO ^ZVEMBLD for setup instructions. If you encounter the message "THIS IS NOT THE MANAGER UCI", select YES to continue. Next, DO ^VEEMINIT to setup Fileman files (optional).
