Re: GENCMDDOC differences in UIM and HTML output

Per email from IBM working as designed:
   
  The GENOPT(*UIM) option does not retrieve and format existing online help UIM 
source.  That option is intended to be used against commands for which you want 
to add online help.  If you have ever written your own CL commands and 
considered doing online help for the commands, the GENCMDDOC with OPTION(*UIM) 
makes that sooooo much easier!  It generates all the "boilerplate" UIM tags you 
need, including an 'Error messages' sample section which you would edit to 
reflect the possible errors returned by your CL command.  I hope that helps 
explain why GENCMDDOC with GENOPT(*UIM) didn't return the same error message 
information as GENOPT(*HTML) which retrieves the existing online command help 
and formats it as an HTML document.

In STMF file created for CRTDUPOBJ using GENCMDDOC command the HTML output 
shows messages possible the same as if you used the Help text for the command 
while the UIM output is missing anything less than CPF9801 (i.e. in the HTML it 
shows CPF2105 as a possible msg while that msg is missing from the UIM stream 
file.

Am I missing something or is this "working as designed"?
