The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Here's what the IBM doc says:
* Rational Development Studio for i (5770-WDS)*
Rational Development Studio for i continues to respond to the requirements
from the user community to meet the needs of RPG and COBOL applications.
The following new features have been added:
For RPG:
- %SPLIT is enhanced to enable a special parameter *ALLSEP, indicating
that a value should be returned for every separator.
- New string built-in functions %LEFT and %RIGHT enable users to return
the leftmost or rightmost characters from a string.
- New built-in functions %PASSED and %OMITTED enable users to test
whether a parameter was passed.
- SELECT is enhanced to allow an operand. New operation codes WHEN-IS
and WHEN-IN specify the value to compare to or a range or list of values to
compare to within the SELECT operand.
- New command parameter PPMINOUTLN for CRTBNDRPG and CRTRPGMOD is added
to control the record length of the temporary file used by CRTSQLRPGI when
the RPGPPOPT parameter is *LVL1 or *LVL2. This parameter is specified by
using the COMPILEOPT parameter of CRTSQLRPGI.

subject: Re: 7.5 TR2 & %LEFT
I thought those were CL or maybe SQL additions - not RPG.
But I can't see them anywhere except in one announce doc that implies
RPG. But they are not there and I have not heard of any plans for them.
