There used to be a "long-established policy" about charging extra for interactive capability, it is gonne in the newer models. I think IBM will revert the SEU policy.

If you have to use SEU, you can ignore the syntax errors when you exit SEU. The compiler still knows about the new stuff.

As someone else said, this is a long-established policy - hey, when did 6.1 come out?

Looking at the articles on the new V7R1 features that Kurt sent out I see
this gem!

Here's what's really interesting: SEU's syntax checking has been frozen at
the 6.1 level! That means that SEU will not recognize any of the 7.1
enhancements and will detect these new features as errors.

This is a disaster!

Both my current company and the previous company have refused to buy the
RDI tools and at $1,660 bucks I am not too surprised! Unless you work in a
shop where they will spend the $1700 bucks per developer plus maintenance
you are effectively locked out of using V7R1 features unless we turn off
syntax checking. A big reduction in productivity.

Anybody know of any efforts to get checking turned back on in V7R1?
