RE: [WDSCI-L] Filter Pools

["Kelly Cookson" <KCookson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think I may switch from using multiple profiles to using a single profile 
with multiple connections, as you have done, Michael. The profiles idea works. 
And I like the fact that when a profile is not active, its connections are no 
longer visible. But I could define all my connections in one profile and use 
the 'Go Into' menu option to hide everything except the particular connection 
with which I am working.  It seems simpler to make multiple connections without 
making the extra profiles.

Thanks,
Kelly

Profiles aren't really the place that controls the library list.  Library 
lists are set at the connection.  (i.e., You set the library list you want 
on the under the 'Subsystems' branch of the connection properties -- then 
under the 'iSeries Commands' tab.)  You can define a different set of 
library lists (and the current library) for each connection within a 
profile and you can define as many connections as you need under one 
profile.  I currently have 8 connections defined under my one profile and 
each has it's own library lists and filter pool(s) so that I can work with 
the appropriate source and objects related to that connection.  For my 
use, I also have a general filter pool (available to every connection) 
which contains filters to source and objects common to all my areas of 
responsibility.

Well, I was able to achieve something close to what I wanted. I tend to 
create filters by programming project (i.e., one filter contains all the 
COBOL, CL and DDS source files required for a particular application).  I 
have grouped filters for Human Resources applications into a single HR 
filter pool. The filters in my HR filter pool tend to require the same 
library list. 

So now I have an HR profile, which I made by copying my current profile. I 
modified the connection names in my HR profile so I know clearly which 
profile connection I am using. I also modified the connections in my HR 
profile to open with the desired library list for HR projects. It's pretty 
easy to toggle the profile on and off. 

Let me see how much I like/use this arrangement.

Thanks,
Kelly

I might be wrong, but I believe filters and library lists are controlled 
at
the profile level.  So if you can create a profile for each library list 
you
need and then create the filters within the appropriate profile.  You can
have multiple profiles active at the same time.

Hope this helps,
Cary
