Re: [WDSCI-L] copy/paste & compare feature

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There might be some changes in these compare tools in this month's expected 
update. I had a PMR about how these things are not very useful. E.g., in 
RSE, this option compares the PC copies, I think, so that if you make a 
copy of a member and do a compare they come out as different because of the 
source dates. This tool is the Eclipse compare, not an iSeries compare. I'm 
not sure of the extent of changes here, but the problems are now known. 
Hope they will be completely addressed.

Also, if you use the same option out of an iSeries project, you have more 
options available. It is still the Eclipse tool, so the source dates are 
still an issue, I believe.

Stay tuned.
