Re: Source in IFS

Most source management systems will not support IFS sources.

The Rational tools do follow the RPG enhancements afaik, so I don't think
(and never noticed) that the will be out of sync with RPG. And for lots of
commands RDI just executes remote i/OS functions.

But the conclusion can be that more enhancements would need to be done by
IBM to make IFS sources useful. I just also noted the CRTDSPF command, which
also does not have a SRCSTMF parameter.

Hi, David:

Are you saying that WDSCi, RDi and RDp, do not really support or work
with source in the IFS? :-o

Thanks,

One thing to consider regarding RPG in ifs files ... most current

development tools cannot deal with the IFS source locations.

Even DSPPGM doesn't show the source location (at least on V5R4).
