Re: Source file names (was Using prototypes...)

For the create commands indeed you have to specify the exact location of the
source or it will look in your home directory.
But for the copybooks there is a search order which is not exactly the
equivalent of a liblist but it comes near. From the manual the search order
is:
1. The current directory.
2. The path specified by the INCDIR comand parameter.
3. The directories in the RPGINCDIR environment variable.
4. The source directory (if the source is an IFS file).
The RPGINCDIR environment variable can be used as alternative for librarry
list.

The biggest problem I've with IFS is that I can no longer use this nice
little iseries feature ==> library list :)

For IFS source support there are some essentials missing:

- No IFS source support for CLLE programs and modules
- No IFS source support for IFS binder source in the CRTSRVPGM

command.

For most things source stream files are supported but one essential

problem

is that long names are not supported for objects.

So I have the source

linked_list_utilities.rpgle

and how should I name the module and the service program object?

Thank you. It appears our system wants Hungarian notation or

separate

source files. Another way is to have FOO (command), FOOCPP,

FOOPROC1,

FOOPROC2, etc. Unfortunately, the 10-position limit can cause

weird

names.

Not sure what a good solution may be, other than Steve R.'s

suggestion to

expand the 10 position limit.

If IBM would be so kind to provide us with the finishing of IFS

Source

support we would not have to deal with the 10 position limit.
IBM added IFS source support long ago, but did not complete the
implementation so for production it is useless. Sigh...
For a month ago I submitted a DCR to ask them for completion of

this

feature.
