I finally got around to trying CMUD on GemStoneIV and right off the bat I'm noticing that i cannot get a gsl trigger to fire at all.

I can #SAY the various variables just fine though, I'm wondering if it might not be better to just run the new expression triggers off of those.

Send in a feedback and I'll see what I can do. It's a bit harder for me to test GSL stuff these days since my arrangement with Simutronics ended and I no longer get free logins there. I guess I can try to see if my old login is still active...if I can remember it :)

It's wierd though...not sure what wouild cause GSL triggers to fail since I'm using the same GSL engine from zMUD.

#SAY %gsl(Q)

#SAY %gsl(q)
> 1158717588
#SAY %gsl(Q)-%gsl(q)
> 1158717310-1158717648
#SAY %eval(%gsl(Q)-%gsl(q))
> 0
#SAY %eval(1158717310-1158717348)
> -38

I can't seem to get %eval to process GSL at all, ive tried putting the variables into an #FUNC and access them by calling the new variables, but the results are the same

shalimar, I think maybe CMUD is treating %gsl as a string function. Try using %int around the calls, like %int(%gsl(Q)) and see if that helps. I'll add this to the bug list.

But is your problem with the %gsl function, or is there something about GSL triggers that are not working too?

Sticking it into an int does force it to eval properly

but i still cant get an expression trigger to fire off the changes

and GSL triggers wouldnt do anything for me yesterday, but now they seem to be working.. some of the time

OK, I have fixed this in 1.07 so that it makes the %gsl() variables auto-typed instead of strings. Also, to move %gsl more in line with stuff like %mud, I have added it as a proper system variable, so instead of doing the %gsl(A) function call, you can also use the %gsl.A variable reference.

I looked at the GSL trigger stuff and found a couple of minor issues, but they seem to work fine now. So either I fixed it or else I can't find the problem with the triggers. Hopefully I fixed it :)
