Joe,

I've been using the connection per project for some time now and one of
the things I really like is that I can easily open the connection for an
old project and see what objects were used.  It makes going back in time
much easier. 

I also think it simplifies the clutter of multiple filters.  I do use
filter pools, but my main connection to our development box is still
cumbersome to navigate.  It contains filters for each of the source
files in my library (27 files, each for a different application +
personal development/historical files) filters for members of my
development team, and filters for our production source.  Each in a
separate pool.  I much prefer a project connection where I can filter
just the source files I will need.  It's a much smaller list to wade
through.

Because connections are the top level of RSI it's easy to find things if
the names are descriptive.

Just my $.02

Rick

Oooo scary.  The options under right-click/New on the iSeries
Objects branch are completely different depending on whether
the Show Filter Pools option is selected.  I have to go down
another level (to the filter pool) to get all the options I
normally see under New at the iSeries Objects level.

I don't know whether I like this behavior or not, but I guess
it makes sense.  It definitely can make it a little confusing.

The connection per project approach makes a lot of sense if
your initial session setup for each project is different; by
using the initial library list or initial program on the
connection you can make sure your connection is properly
configured for each project.  Me, I'm talking about having
different filters for different applications within an
application suite, as well as for different versions for
historical or comparative purposes, so I need lots of filters
in one connection.  So yes, I'd still like the full directory
structure.
