The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

I'm trying to solve a customer problem and we'd like to extract the
DBGVIEW(*LIST) source so we can compare it to the current QRPGLESRC
(restoring from the previous day's backup won't help; that source was clean
and multiple programmers have meddled with the code, unsuccessfully, to
find/address the problem). This is more of a forensic exercise for the
management team--they like to see a post-mortem/hot wash/after-action
report whenever we have incidents (which, fortunately, is seldom).
I'm not kidding when I say we think the programmer's cat walked across the
keyboard.
Is there a free tool, API, or published procedure to do this? I expect
I'll have to do quite a bit of cleanup to remove generated SQL and that's
fine. Getting the recovered code into a source member and jumping on
iSphere's extremely handy source compare we give us our answer.
I'd prefer the extraction approach instead of writing a macro that does a
text screen shot, appends it to an open document, and then reruns the
macro. While this works 99.99% of the time, we can't risk the possibility
of missing what's likely a very subtle error because of a defective debug
view process (we already have one defective process, which is why I'm doing
emails at 10:30 PM Saturday night).
Thanks,
Reeve
