In order to complete the list of utilities, iSphere adds option "Display Module View" to the context menu of objects of type *MODULE.

Betreff: Extracting debug view
Greetings all--
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
