Products

• Easytrieve Report Generator

Issue/Introduction

In order to compile Easytrieve to use Oracle, a PARM USERID ('user' 'password') SSID ('ssidname') is needed.  After compiling this module, the information shows up in clear text near the end of the Easytrieve executable bin file.  Is there a way to cause this information to be encrypted?

Environment

Easytrieve Report Generator, release 11.6

Resolution

The plaintext credentials are part of the Easytrieve program, there's no support for encryption at this time.
