Aldon's response is that LMi is not capable of promoting source for AFP
overlays.


Surely someone must have a workaround as this is one of the popular s/w
lifecycle managers on the iseries and AFP is also popular.

Any suggestions on how to promote *OVL source with the *OVL object using
Aldon LMi?

The problem seems to be that IBM stores the source in a data file instead of
a source file like RPG and CL.

Thanks

Call Aldon (Rocket) Support. If you do it first thing in the morning
you've got a better chance of immediate attention.

Or e-mail them now and you might have an answer by tomorrow.

There are two items to promote thru Aldon:

#1) the overlay in source form (human-readable) which is stored in a

NON-standard source file (DSPFD type = data) named AFPSRC;

#2) the overlay OBJECT type = *OVL.


#2 seems to promote well, but we would like to carry the source #1 thru

the promotion also. How can that be done?
