Michael,

That's the thing... my job description does not create a joblog for compiles unless the compile fails (then a job log is created).  The problem is that when the compile fails during the binding step, I have no job log.

I don't have a problem going to the green screen to look at a joblog or compile listing in my spool file.  The problem is that when compile (from RDi ONLY) fails during the binding step, no joblog exists anywhere that I can find.

The very same compile from a green screen command line or option 14 in PDM produces a joblog.

Greg,

There is a work around that helps. If you have your preferences (Remote 
Systems, IBM i, Command Execution) set to Compile in batch', plus check to 
'Add Batch compiles to the Job Status view', you can right click the job 
and select 'Spooled Files'. This will show you the job log (if your 
selected job description for compiling keeps one). Then you can peruse the 
joblog to figure out the error in the binding step. This is not any kind 
of fix, but a rather involved work around.

To make it easier to identify the job in the job status view, I added RFE 
69324 to give the submitted jobs unique names. Here's the link: 
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=69324 
Vote for it if you agree it would help some.

Michael
