Hi Bret, Thanks for the explanation. So, if I am currently using current_date() in a UDF, merely because ASE 15.0.3 allows it, then I assume that would be a "bad idea". Because eventually I will be on...

Hi John, Strictly speaking, yes, I'd be cautious about making large bets that current_date() would continue to work. However, engineering doesn't seem to be placing much priority on fixing the issue....

If the cost of Visual Studio 2008/2012 is an issue, Gary should be able to use SharpDevelop (free). AFAIK, Sybase doesn't care what the GUI development tool is as long as it uses a recent .NET SDK....

View ArticleRe: is it possible to have a trigger to detect delete in sysobjects.type='P' ?
ASE does not support DDL triggers (which is what you are referring to). More generally, it is not allowed to create triggers on system tables. To achieve what you're looking for, you can use the...

2 ideas: 1- allow people to only drop stored procedures by using a specific stored procedure or script. This SP or script will write a log which will help you to have an history 2- I wonder if the...
