Re: Request for CL, DDS, SQL RPG enhancements

[Buck Calabro <Buck.Calabro@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As for SQL-RPG enhancements, I would desperately like to see
the pre-processor be able to handle the base language
specifications.  That is, if RPG IV allows local variables, so
should the pre-processor.  And so on.  Anything else makes
embedded SQL very difficult to use (which is why the
iSeries-toolkit contains SQL CLI code.)

As for regular RPG, the current NULL support needs help, as
well as OPDESC for all data types.  A personal wish is access
to the cross reference information.  It's be wonderful to be
able to programmatically access the object, type and line
numbers just like the compiler cross reference.  Program
metrics would be so much easier to generate...
