Re: RPG is outdated and unsupported.. according to Google

So are you saying that Static Analysis doesn't work?

Or are you saying it doesn't work when the language is RPG.

If the former, then the rest of the world disagrees.
If the latter, then I'd argue that RPG isn't magic. While some of the
common vulnerabilities may not apply, doesn't mean none of them do. Nor
that they can't be prevented by static analysis.

Its different because it's not being scanned/looked at. How is scanning
RPG code by AI or even people going to prove security or not?

And code I write when working for a company is a lot different than code I
write for a product for my company.

Not sure how it's any worse than storing your source in a private Github
(or other) repository in the cloud.

My company does both Veracode and Sonarcube scanning on our non-RPG

code...

Though we've yet to do so for RPG code (which BTW is store in the cloud

in

Github Enterprise)

Ya, I'm not giving my code for scanning. That's redic. :)
