Subject: ZCPR 3.3 Named Directories

CEO summary:
I have been having problems with named directories under ZCPR 3 since 
I began installing it.  The problem lies with the LDR, and I think I 
have discovered where.  With the Z3BASE.LIB, I specify the number of 
entries that I want (used default of 14) and the size of the buffer 
is then 18*entries+1.  However, looking into the Z3LIB routines, the 
information it provides is the number of 128 byte blocks that the 
named directory is. What seems to be happening is that when I load 
the named directory, it winds up clobbering the command line.  It 
seems to me here that something is in conflict, and it is the Z3LIB 
(and all programs that use it, including LDR) are wrong.  Can someone 
please give me some input as to what number should be in the 
environment (entries or 128 byte blocks) and how does Z3LIB get the 
number of 128 byte blocks of the number of entries.
 
Thanks. dan_zehme@bsn.ceo.dg.com
