The procedure to load the current text files into the datafile and passing data to index works fine. It’s not the most perfect program but it works as intended.
So now I can start with reading the files: Getting the last post via index, and the text based on the found index record, seem to work: I will get the latest post, but I’m not totally convinced it’s the way I intended to: Last dated post is 07-Apr-2021, and I pass current date (and time), so 12-Aug-2021. Just a coincidence?
Anyway, given the record number (1 for this date) – added first in the database (defined descending). There is still some work to do on these files….
Second, it seems the data is read but given the max size of the text (8K – 4 bytes for the key) I need to do something to see what has been read. The output page is than created – complete as it is now, except for the text: just the first character. So some work here as well.
Nevertheless: some progress.
What goes on behind the doors of the (private) data center
