How does jBASE emulate other MultiValue databases?
VERY WELL ACTUALLY. There is a file in the $JBCRELEASEDIR/config directory called Config_EMULATE and an environment variable called JBCEMULATE. A complete explanation is included in the knowledgebase here. The file contains numerous options to control how jBASE functions. These options are headed with an emulation label that groups behavior, (and that label is assigned to JBCEMULATE). There are several pre-defined groups including ap, universe, ros, etc. or you can define you own and pick the functionality you want for your own custom JBCEMULATE setting. This one simple variable setting will then be used throughout your jBASE sessions. Further customization of your environment can be achieved through environment variables as explained next.
