VAST 6.0.2 Directory Structure

Hello everyone,

I am Product Manager on a large ERP system with the client written in Smalltalk, specifically VAST v6.0.2.

The product has been developed over the last 20+ years and sadly there are no original developers left and they
left behind little documentation.

I like to understand all of the various files that are packaged with our client.

I've looked through the IBM redbooks I've found online but found nothing satisfactory yet.

Does anyone know of somewhere that explains all of the files that are necessary for a VAST client and what they do.

For example:

abtbmp50.dll

abtcldef.dtd

abtico50.dll

abtln40.dll

abtlnico.dll

abtpay60.dll

abtprc60.dll

abtschem.map

Abtvci40.dll

Abtvme40.dll

abtvmf40.dll

abtvof40.dll

Abtvos40.dll

Abtvst40.dll

abtvxt40.dll

Abtwci40.dll

Abtwos40.dll

abtxmap.dtd

Plus all of many others.

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Matthew.

You may find the information while comparing it with the current version
at:

http://www.instantiations.com/docs/FAQ/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=va02005.html

The same information is also available in the 6.0.2 version documentation.

Or e.g. in the printed documentation of 4.0 in "VisualAge Smalltalk", "User Guide", Chapter 10. Packaging your VisualAge application", "Redistribution VisualAge files" at page 158

Can you explain what you are trying to achieve, these all are base classes.
