RE: Default Editor by File Type

Seems to me, in an earlier release of WDSC, that after I selected, say CODE Designer, that option got a check and became what was used thereafter. Maybe only on that member, maybe for that type - I don't remember.

Let me add my vote for the ability to control this ourselves.

Thanks
Vern

on my last version of WDSC (5.1.0.3) so I assumed it would work here.

Try Windows -> Preferences -> Workbench -> File Associations.  Look for
*.dspf.  Select it and then select button Defalt.  If it does not seem like
it worked after setting, try restarting WDSCi.

Is there any way to have the source member for a DDS display file open
automatically in Code Designer when double-clicked?

Thanks,
Kelly

If I remember correctly, it is only hardcoded for iSeries members (which
have the sequence numbers, date area).  I think IFS, local, etc do honour
the settings.

The defaults you set are honored by the iSeries project perspective but not

by the RSE perspective. Seems that RSE uses a different mechanism,
hard-coded (?), to determine the editors to list. Too bad it does not use
the other settings already there.

Someone from the IBM team please correct me if needed.
