Subject
[WDSCI-L] Comparing Sources







This is probably a question already asked and answered, but like so much
of RSE finding the answer is an exercise in pain and frustration.  I am
trying very hard to wean myself away from PDM.  I now find out that IBM
has made it, almost, impossible to do that because of the screen and
print design being relegated to the "Advanced Version".  That confuses
me since Screen design and print file design are not WEB related yet the
Advanced Version seems to be geared towards WEB. 


I digress.  I want to compare 2 different source modules and have hit a
wall called RSE.  I right click on a source member and choose Compare
and there is a grayed out "Each Other".  I went to HELP and got


 Simple compare


In the Navigator select file1.txt and file2.txt choose Compare With >
Each Other from the context menu. 

A dialog will appear indicating that the two files are the same. 

 

I am unable to select a second source member.  Just one question--- WHY
DOES EVERYTHING IN RSE HAVE TO BE A CHORE?  Nothing is straight forward.
Has the KISS principle been thrown away with the advent of GUI?  IN 40
years KISS has always worked the best, from tubes and punch cards to 8"
floppy disks and Remote Batch Processors to Green Screens. (3 years and
counting)

 

Thanks
