I put my rpgle sources in the IFS for ages.
There is a lot of benefits.
I can put my sources in a git repository (http://www.git-scm.com/).
I can create files and folders with a long name.
I can organize sources in subfolders, etc.
It is worth it.

There is something that bother me a little.
If I put my rpgle sources in qsys instead, using RDi, I can use autocomplete from copied sources.
I don't have this feature in the IFS, and I want it.

What does it mean :
When i have 2 sources in QSYS :
------------------------
Source1.rpgle :
P DisplayHelloWorld...
P b EXPORT
D pi
/free
dsply 'Hello world';
/end-free
P e
------------------------
Source2.rpgle :

/free
//I type "D" => RDi suggest "DisplayHelloWorld" (and parameters, etc.)
DisplayHelloWorld();
/end-free

/copy LIB/qrpglesrc,source1
------------------------

If I have 2 sources in the IFS :
------------------------
SourceIfs1.rpgle :
P DisplayHelloWorld...
P b EXPORT
D pi
/free
dsply 'Hello world';
/end-free
P e
------------------------
SourceIfs2.rpgle :

/free
//I type "D" => RDi don't suggest "DisplayHelloWorld"
DisplayHelloWorld();
/end-free

'SourceIfs1.rpgle'
------------------------

This missing feature is quite annoying, is there any way to get it back ?
