Re: Mass ILE recompile question.

I've written my own utilities to do this.  For me, the hard part isn't 
figuring out what modules make up a program, the hard part is figuring
out all the other compilation options, such as actgrp(), file overrides,
etc.

For finding the mocules, I have a program which ends with LR off.  The
first time that its called, it dumps all the programs/modules on the
system into QTEMP using the QBNLPGMI API.

Then, each subsequent call, it searches that user space to find which
programs use a given module.

Then I have another utility called "RECRT" (recreate) which takes a given
program name and finds out how it was compiled the last time.  It finds
out things like ACTGRP(), DBGVIEW(), file names & where they were
overridden to, etc.   Then it recompiles each module and binds it into a
program.

The system works pretty well, but the programming to create it was a bit
complex...
