RE: QRPGSRC vs. QRPGLESRC

I recommend keeping all of your source (RPG, RPGLE, CL, CLLE, DDS, ...) in a
single source file.  Current tools work much better with a single source
file.  Source files separated by source type is a hold over from the
System/38's programmer's menu which automatically switched source file
depending on the source type you were processing.

Subject: QRPGSRC vs. QRPGLESRC


I'm supposed to create a source file named QRPGSRC that will be hold all of
source files, both RPG and RPGILE. I've always kept the 2 source members in
seperate source files. I.E. QRPGSRC and QRPGLESRC. I know QRPGLESRC has a
longer record length. I'm supposed to create a QRPGSRC with a record lenght
of 112. Everywhere I've been before has always kept the sources seperate. I
don't think it's necesarily a good idea. I need a good reason to explain why
we should not do this, other than industry standards, the differences in the
code etc.
