Re: Iseries Project Navigator

Greg,

I used the filter method for a couple of years until recently.  One of the post 
by an IBMer (IIRC) suggested that RSE was actually designed for us to use 
connections to group what I would refer to as a project.  I have been 
experimenting with using a new connection for each project I work on and so far 
it works well for me.  Within the connection I create filters and filter pools 
to identify the source and/or objects I need for that project.  The only issue 
I have come across is that I can't have the same filter pool name defined in 
more than one connection.  I really don't understand that one.

HTH,

Rick

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Iseries Project Navigator


I'm new to WDSC, and have installed the latest and greatest (even got
WDSC-Lite yesterday).



I was poking around with creating projects, and it seems that if I've
collected some source members into a project, and work with them from
the Iseries Project Navigator view, then I am working with files on the
PC, and must "push" them back to the Iseries before compiling them.
When I want to compile them, I can't just run a compile from the LPEX
editor, but must do it as a "remote action" from the Project Navigator.
This appears to have the downside of not returning an error list, or
indeed any indication of whether the compile succeeded or failed.



I like being able to group several source members together under a
project heading, but I also like the way compiles behave when I am
working from the RSE perspective.



Is there no way to get the best of both worlds, or must I choose one or
the other ?
