Predictive

Hardware predictive (HP50779) has been modified to be year 2000 safe by modifications to internal date comparison routines and database access methods. Various other defect fixes which have been made since the release of MPE release 5.5 are also rolled into the 6.0 version of hardware predictive.

HP MPE/iX Databases

ALLBASE/SQL

The ALLBASE/SQL functions TO_DATE and TO_DATETIME are enhanced to handle two-digit years appropriately. For more information, refer to the article, "New Features in ALLBASE/SQL Version G3," in the chapter, "Technical Articles."

In SQLUtil, the SETUPRECOVERY command is used for roll-forward recovery. SETUPRECOVERY accepts two-digit years as part of the date specification. These two-digit years are interpreted as discussed in the section, "Two-Digit Years Interpretation," in the article, "Year 2000 Enhancements for MPE/iX."

IMAGE/SQL and TurboIMAGE/XL

IMAGE/SQL and TurboIMAGE/XL use the ALLBASE/SQL TO_DATE and TO_DATETIME functions to handle the two-digit years appropriately.

HP Stage/iX

HP Stage/iX can now handle dates with year greater than or equal to 2000 correctly (when the LIST command is used). It is now Y2K compliant.
