RE: Efficient use of WDSCi.

Okay. I had gotten the impression that running multiple workspaces was
supposed to be a way of organizing projects. I therefore assumed there was a
better way of using workspaces. Actually glad to hear it is typical to reuse
a workspace for iSeries development for a single team/shop. :)

I, too, go back to green screens to look at database files during
development. The DBU plugin from ProData is nice, but I doubt my managers
will spring for the extra license given that we can go back to green screens
to use DBU. The JFaceDbc looks interesting in that regard. Thanks for the
tip. I guess I need to do more searching for plug-ins when I find an
opportunity.

I could still use some advanced tips for efficient use of RSE and debugging,
though.

Thanks,
Kelly

Kelly,

Whats wrong with using the same workspace, that what I do. 
I now do everything from WDSC apart from running applications.

The other thing that would be handy is a WDSC SQL plugin, as most of the
time that I pop back to green screen is to query/SQL files

Cheers

I've been using it for about 4 months now. I generally like it. However, I
have not made a complete switch.  I tend to use WDSCi as a replacement for
SEU and SDA (and WebFacing, which has no equivalent in ADTS). But I tend not
to use WDSCi as a replacement for green screen PDM or ISDB.  I'm still much
more efficient with green screen PDM than with RSE, and I find ISDB simpler
than debugging with WSDCi. I'm also not making effective use of workspaces.
It takes me so long to set up and customize views, connections, filters, and
commands that I frequently reuse the same workspace. 

Are there any good articles for someone who has a few months experience with
WDSCi and needs some intermediate or advanced tips to get truly efficient
with RSE, debugging, and workspace utilization? 

Thanks,
Kelly
