Dave,

I happen to use the Change Management software called "Turnover", which has a great plug-in for RDP/RDi.

I have used Implement previously, not a bad package. My only real complain it that it messed up the Source pointers on the object. (DSPPGM) It would say that the object was created from a source-file in temporary Implement library that was deleted...

Sample:

Object Type Library Attr Library Source Member
MCABBARL *PGM PRODOBJ RPGLE IMAGI1S QRPGLESRC MCABBARL

This object was created back in 2004, when we were using Implementer. Note the Source-Library of "IMAGI1S", which was a work-library used by Implementer. It was one reason why we switched to Turnover, among other reasons.

So, two questions on Implementer:
1.) Does it have a plug-in for RDP/RDI?
2.) Have they ever fixed their Source Pointer Problem?

Note, it has been about 7-years since I have used Implementer, but curious...

Of course, I am using Turnover, which does NOT have those two issues. Otherwise, it seemed like a very good package over all. :)that decision was made about 7-years ago at my employer.

Thanks for any insight you might share!

I use source member filters in the Remote Systems Explorer perspective to group together source members in a "project". They link directly to the server source, so bypass that extra step of promotion with iProjects. With careful and consistent naming of the filters you can keep control of your work history.

Expanding on that, I use multiple connections to the same IBM i (to control library lists) and multiple profiles (to separate old, current and "on hold" projects.)

You don't get to move projects around easily (you need to select the contained source members and operate on them that way) but this is the most comfortable method for me that I've found so far.

I'm always eager to learn of other people's setups.
