[WP3] Type evolution of SourceList

[D.R. Boxhoorn]

Dear database administrators,

Could you please tell me, if you are running an AWBASE version?
Could you all please take the following steps to evolve the schema for SourceList?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# As AWOPER, from the SQL*Plus prompt

ALTER TYPE "SourceList$" ADD ATTRIBUTE ("number_of_sources" SMALLINT) CASCADE;
UPDATE "SourceList" SET "number_of_sources"=-1 WHERE "number_of_sources" IS NULL;
COMMIT;

# From the unix prompt using database_user=AWOPER

awe Experimental/SourceList.py
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Those running an AWBASE version, could you please tell me when you're finished, so I can move the AWBASE tag?

I will update the section in the manual about the use of AWBASE, because it appears to be outdated. Fedors suggestion to use branch tags wil also be incorporated in the text.
More on that later.

Thanks for your cooperation,

                                                   Danny
