Re: Compiling source members program from within SEU

There are exit points for this in later releases. But if you have PC5250
emulation, let me suggest using a macro. Something like

F9                        post ion to command line
Clear-EOF            clear contents without moving
SAVE                    other parameters available to save to other than
default location
Enter
Tab to source file name at top of screen            get source file and member
Edit-Copy
Cursor to 2 positions before library name
Copy-Append
Cursor to member name
Copy-Append
F21
command line
CRTxxxPGM or other create command (or use SBMJOB)
F4
3 tabs
Clear-EOF
Back-Tab
Edit Paste               (fills in source info)
2 tabs                     (get object name)
Edit-Copy
4 Back-Tabs
Edit-Paste
Change any other parms as needed
Enter                                                             run the
create
Wait until appropriate text appears on message line (programmable)
F15                                     get listing
2
4 tabs
F4
F18
Pause   (to select spooled file)
Enter
Enter
*ERR                              find first error
F16

You can prompt for passwords, etc., with inputnd prompt string. Lots of
other good stuiff. Much more available than good old 5250 record keys.

There are probably other bits and pieces. Plus, this can be recorded in
VBA-style, then you have more options and control.

Anyone know if it would it be possible to create a line command / function
key in SEU that would save the current version of the source member, submit
a compilation, and then return any compilation errors to the display,
without leaving the current edit session?
