Hi Fausto,

the DOMAIN ERROR is cause by the following function header:

 ∆←∆xl ∆

Currently GNU APL rejects function headers with duplicate symbols.

IBM APL2 seems to accept duplicate names in the header, but the rules about
this are not documented in the APL2 reference manual or the ISO standard.

I will make GNU APL compatible to IBM APL2.

In the meantime you can change the header to:

 ∆1←∆xl ∆

and add a new first line:

∆1

before )OUT-ing the function.

Hi Jürgen,

unfortunately Dyalog supports only extended format (as export format) not ATF...
So I need XFRPC workspace to read such format.

I found an APLX version of XFRPC, so I read it in APLX then exported
in ATF (with )OUT command... APLX supports ATF! YEAH! :) )

But when I try to load the ATF in GNU-APL I receive an error:

      )in xfrpcv5.atf

Duplicate symbol ∆!!!

DOMAIN ERROR+



immediate_execution() caught APL error 0x50004 (DOMAIN ERROR)

Attached there's the ATF file.

Hi Fausto,

maybe you are lucky. The wiki page says:

    "2. Using fixed record length ATF files"

Now, ATF files are what )IN and )OUT read resp, produce. Chances are that
those
ATF files are the same as for IBM APL2. In that case all you need is to
write them in Dyalog and read them back into GNU APL using command )IN.

Hello Jürgen,

thanks for the clarification.
I found this page http://aplwiki.com/Transfer%20code and it's talking
about APL2000 and others vendors, so I hope to find something similar
with GNU-APL and Dyalog.
Dyalog supports ]OUT and it generates a XWD file (extended file, not ATF).

So I'm wondering if there's a way to support this kind of format .

thanks,
Fausto

Hi Fausto,

I believe workspace files are generally not exchangeable between different
APL interpreters.

In some cases there are commands that allow the exchange of workspaces. For
example )IN and )OUT
would allow the exchange of workspaces between IBM APL2, GNU APL, and
possibly others. Not sure
though if Dyalog supports )IN and )OUT.

If you have a workspace from an interpreter that does not have such commands
then you normally
use monadic ⎕CR for obtaining a text representation of the APL functions in
the workspace. That
text representation can then be transferred either by writing it to a file
or cut-and-pasting it. There are
serious pitfalls in that process such as encoding differences and ⎕AV
differences. Even if the
transfer succeeds then the APL syntax might still differ.

You might be lucky finding APL programs some place that generate the 2 ⎕TF
format of IBM APL2;
that format is implemented in GNU APL as well.

Variables are handled similarly (2 ⎕TF handles both functions and
variables).

I all cases except )IN and )OUT you will most likely need the interpreter
that has produced the workspace
in order to )LOAD the workspace file before you can convert it yo a
different format.

Hello all,

I'm trying to used the workspace XFRPC11.w3 (downloaded from APL wiki)
in order to transfer file from Dyalog APL to GNU-APL.

When I try to load XFRPC11 I have an internal error.

I suppose the 'w3' format is only for APL2000... correct ?

Is there a way to use such method with GNU-APL too ?

thanks,
Fausto
