RE: New Plug-in Available for WDSC/RSE

Hi Mark,

I tried going to the SoftLand website but I don't seem to get an option
to download a zip file (unless I'm looking in the wrong spot).  On the
website I chose Download  Messages Plug-In but when I did this, it gave
me a page of info to fill in about myself, and then when I did that, it
brought up a page with a doc explaining how to do the install. I don't
see an option to download a Zipped file itself.
I read through the PDF doc and try to download using Update Manager but
this doesn't work for me.  I get a message pop up saying Unable to
access "http://softlanding.com/free_plug-ins/"; and when I look in the
detail it says that it timed out.  We do have our internet setup as Http
Proxy which I know has caused issues in the past.

How do I go about getting these plugins?

I am pleased to announce that we have developed and made available
another 
"free" plug-in for WDSC.  This plug-in adds support for iSeries
Messages 
to the Remote Systems Explorer.  The primary feature of this plug-in is
to 
allow you to monitor your user profile message queue and receive
messages 
within WDSC as they arrive in your message queue.  You have a couple of

options as to how you receive the messages:

1)  Dialog - A dialog will pop-up with the message and information.  If

the message is an Inquiry message you can reply to it in the dialog.
2)  e-mail - The messages are turned into emails and sent to your
account 
to be reviewed in your mail client.
3)  Sound (beep) - Self-explanatory.  This lets you know you have
received 
a message and you can then review it within RSE at your convenience.

The plug-in also adds an "iSeries Messages" subsystem within RSE that 
allows you to define filters to access the messages in any message
queue. 
For example, you can define a filter to show messages in QSYSOPR that
are 
awaiting a reply - or anything else that you desire.

You can download the plug-in from here:

http://www.softlanding.com/websphere/index.htm 

If you are not already aware we also offer a plug-in that provides
access 
to spooled files within RSE.  This plug-in can also be downloaded from
the 
same location.  For those that already have this plug-in a newer
revision 
is now available that contains a couple of very minor bug fixes.

Both of these plugins should work with either WDSC 5.0 or 5.1.

Thanks
