RE: ACS RSS auto-connect?

I'm not sure how the JVM would affect RSS automatically connecting.

The entire ACS runs on Java. Nothing happens in ACS that Java doesn't touch.

Also, is your company actually using Oracle Java and paying them $1M for the privilege???

The JVM depends.

From RDi: 1.8.0_351
From ACS: 23 from Oracle
From double-clicking SQL file: 23 from Oracle

I'm not sure how the JVM would affect RSS automatically connecting.

I've found a workaround that I can live with. I kept my scripts as TXT files, so they were easier to edit in Notepad. This goes back to before I realized I could drag-n-drop. I'd edit in Notepad and copy-and-paste into RSS. I discovered that while I can longer no drag-n-drop TXT files, SQL files will work. Simply changing them to SQL should fix me up. Woo-hoo!

What version of Java is your ACS using? Because of the Oracle
debacle, we've been forced to use Eclipse Adoptium 17.0.9 in our
organization, and it appears to have a deleterious effect on ACS
1.1.9.5. I've never tried the drag-n-drop that you've described, but
I have seen that getting the Open (script) File dialog in RSS takes
forever. Also, when I use multi-tab
5250 sessions and open too many sessions, ACS will completely crash
all its windows, including RSS, Printer Output, etc.

IBM support recommends that I switch to IBM OpenJ9's Java 11. I am
waiting for my request to be approved by our software review board, so
I can't comment whether that will fix things.
