RE: Re: Compile commands

I am able to use a custom compile command or the IBM command CRTSQLRPGI to 
successfully compile my SQL RPGLE source from WDSC. In either case I am able to 
get the compile error list back in WDSC.  But... what is not workinking is the 
link from the error list back to the source code. When I double-click a 
specific error, the source member that opens is the output of the SQL 
precompiler. NOT the original SQL RPGLE source.  I can manually open the 
original source from the Remote Systems Window. But its a nuisense that 
double-clicking the error does not open the correct source automatically.

Is this considered a bug in WDSC? To reproduce this issue, simply compile from 
WDSC using the IBM command CRTSQLRPGI, then double click a line in the iSeries 
error list.

Thanks,
Sarah

Actually, I did mean OPTION(*SRCDBG) :)

What I did, for our compile commands (part of the Implementer SCM 
product) is put a dummy parameter on the compile command where I put the 
'SRCMBR(&N) OPTION(*SRCDBG)'.  Neither parameter is actually used by 
anything, but WDSC notices them and is able to return the compile 
information.

The actual compile command needs to have either the OPTION(*EVENTF) or 
OPTION(*SRCDBG) parameter.

Make sure the compile is not submitted within the batch compile.  WDSC 
submits the compile, and keeps track of the submitted job.

Also, make sure you don't compile the object into QTEMP ... if you do, 
the event file will be written to QTEMP and WDSC won't be able to 
retrieve it.
