[WDSCI-L] WDSc update 5.1.2.3

[Don Yantzi <yantzi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Update 5.1.2.3 is now available on the update manager site for WDSc 5.1.2. 
 To install the update select Help > Software Updates > New Updates from 
the workbench menu.  This update contains only one fix for a memory leak 
in the RSE caching.  This affects anyone who uses the RPG or COBOL program 
verifiers or the RPG outline view. 

This update is a good example of why we need you to report any problems 
you find when using WDSc through the official support channels.  In this 
case,. the original problem was reported from a customer who had the 
workbench crash after refreshing the outline view 3 or 4 times (because of 
the memory leak the workbench was running out of memory.)  We were able to 
work with the customer, reproduce the problem and get this fix out to 
everyone. 

Often the people on this list are too forgiving of WDSc, blaming problems 
on the operating system, the open source eclipse workbench or any of the 
other components that make up WDSc.  IBM does support WDSc as a product 
and as such we need you to report problems (regardless of which part of 
WDSc the problem may actually exist in) so that we can get them fixed and 
everyone can benefit.

Thanks.
