Re: Disabling edit and copy of source program in production library

Dwayne,

Well, I was just outlining how to keep them out of your program source files.  
That would include all source files that you choose to secure using this method 
whether they are CL, RPG, COBOL or whatever else you have.

Do you also want to keep them from running programs?  If so, they you can 
extend this same method to the *PGM objects that you would like to prevent them 
from running.

Is this true for programs and CL?

        Dwayne,

        The simple solution is to make sure that the developer's profile does 
not have *ALLOBJ authority, then just make sure their profile is set up as 
*EXCLUDE on the source physical file.  The developer will probably scream 
bloody murder at being denied *ALLOBJ authority, but it is the right way to 
handle it and, after all, whose source code is it at this point?

the production environment where the source and object is stored and the

disable the edit command or the compiler for the production environment.  We 
also need a way to stop the developer from copying the the source from their 
development library into the production library.  We can allow them to copy 
from the production library, but we do not want them to copy it back to it.
