RE: RPG III - Object to Source DE-Compiler

Amazing Vernon. This particular "Joe" lost his position for the EXACT
reason...self inflicted job security. But really, these guys are all about
INSECURITY, aren't they?

I saw an S/36 contractor escorted out the door of General Mills, because he
had objects with different names than source members, spread all over the
place, with no external documentation (i.e., it was all in his head). Job
security? Not this time.

Thanks Joel -

I don't think they intentionally delete the source: they just remove their
personal library and everything in it...not realizing they have production
objects operating from their personalized source files. Where I do get
bent
is them not copying the tested object into the live source file for
re-compilation into production. SO MANY people, who have been around for
SO
MANY years, totally blind to the importance of change management...this
particular problem is just a very good example of that.
