Hello,

my projects slowly become more complex and I start to face "dependency hell". This includes PFs in a library being referenced by *PGM and DSPF objects in other libraries. When I change a field

I'm wondering which easy ways of source tracking are available directly in (older) versions of OS/400 (here: V4R5), *without* using MS Windows based, or other "external" development tools. I want to solely rely on OS provided facilities.

Note: I'm exclusively using DDS for creating PFs/LFs, no SQL. I don't see benefits in doing so on V4R5.

I have noticed the "extended" PDM project management, but so far I failed to find the nerves to look into what seems a highly complex mechanism. I'm also not sure if I can "import" already existing "projects" (aka: libraries with one SOURCES for all source members) into it. Also, this facility is no longer available in 7.2, as I've seen. (Some of my projects I'm using on and developing on a 8203-E4A.)

I have read about TMAKE from QUSRTOOLS but so far no first-hand experience with it. I'm rather fluent with UNIX make and Makefiles, though.

Other thoughts from the group?

Thanks!

:wq! PoC
