Hi Buck

I've never heard of the Eclipse editor being LPEX - it might be, but I don't know. I DO see in Preferences a separate section for "LPEX Editor" - outside of "Remote Systems" - and there's also the "Remote Systems LPEX Editor" inside of "Remote Systems".

And then I see in File Associations, "Basic LPEX Editor" and "Simple LPEX Editor" and "Remote Systems LPEX Editor".

Oy! What a mess - it seems to me, at least at the end of this day when I've been at this job now for a year! (I did slip that in!)

The only explicit reference to "Basic LPEX Editor" in the help is about some code review component used with COBOL and AIX or the like.

And nothing with the exact string "Simple LPEX Editor", as I recall from my search I just did.

So what are these beasts? I don't feel like going into File Associations and mucking about, at least not today.

Cheers
Vern

Matt, you've lost me - what is the difference between Remote Systems

Are you speaking of the CODE/400 editor as the basic LPEX?
So Eclipse has a generic editor. I guess it's called Lpex. One can
extend Lpex via plugins. The Java people have plugins that do Java
parsing, refactoring, etc. Rational have made plugins for RPG that
handle our needs.

When you open up a file that isn't registered to the Rational-extended
Lpex, the base editor comes into play. ish. On an earlier version of
RDi, I'm quite sure I remember the icon on the editor tab being
something other than a pencil. For Java, the icon becomes a 'J'. For
.txt, the icon becomes a sheet of paper with lines. None of these
support the Rational extension of Ctrl-2 to split the screen. If you
open a .txt file from your IFS, right click the source and look at the
options for 'Open With'. You can see these options on the RSE list as
well, but only for file types Rational doesn't recognise.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] No Split view on source members of type SQL?

I don't seem to have the option to split the view when editing source
members of type SQL?

This is on 9.0.0.1.

Can anyone confirm they have the same problem?

Is this s bug or a limitation?
