RE: Library List settings

Rick,

I was following this thread.  I'm on version V5x.  When I follow your
suggestion, I found that the top half of the Iseries command tab window is
actually a table to set up a library list.  Is it different in version 6?

Pete,

I know this isn't really what you're looking for but it's the best I can do.

Under properties for your connection select subsystems, then iSeries
commands.  On this tab is an option to specify a sign-on command.  When WDSc
connects to your system it runs this command just like a sign-on job on the
green screen.  I use it to run a sign-on CL and set a basic list that works
for most of my development.  I update it as needed through the library list
filter of RSE.

I haven't come across any other method of setting the library list.

HTH,

Rick

I have been trying to do more and more of my development in WDSCi and it is
going well.  I really like 6.0 but I have to admit I haven't taken time to
learn all the features yet, so bear with me if I missed something obvious
here.

I just started to compile programs from WDSCi 6.0 (I used to just run
compiles from the command line).  Is it just me or is the setting of library
lists a clunky procedure? I set the library list, laboriously moving between
mouse clicks and keying to get the list built in RSE.  At that point I was
happily compiling away.  I ended my WDSCi session, shut down my notebook
headed home, fired it up there and started WDSCi again and on my next
compile got a bunch of errors indicating that stuff was missing from the
library list.  The list in RSE looked fine, until I hit refresh, and then my
libraries disappeared from the list.  So I added them all back in. Kind of a
pain.

So here is the question/rant:  Is it possible to retain the library list as
a value and then load it during the startup of RSE?  What I'd love to have
is a way to store a bunch of library lists as "loadable" values when I am in
RSE.  Yes, I know that I could write a CL to do this and can call it, but
these libraries and names can be pretty fluid and it would be great save
them and switch between them while in RSE. That would be an "optimal"
solution.

Barring that, is there a way to access the library list in a view that
doesn't require 1 by 1 entry?  Similar to the edtlibl command ? 
Bringing up a screen that would allow multiple libraries to be added would
be great.

Perhaps these features are already there?  Perhaps my newbie eyes are just
missing something?

Outside of CL programs and job descriptions, how are others handling library
lists in WDSCi?

Thanks.
