Re: some questions on compile commands...

Hi Michael, Peter,

1) Its not a good idea to use user actions instead of compile commands, as
user actions will not retrieve the events file and populate the error list.
Also there are preferences for Command execution which only affect compile
commands.

2) I believe if you share connections (ie use team profiles), then the user
actions and compile commands are also shared.
If you don't want to use team connections, then you may just want to try
copying over the contents of  following folder to other team members'
workspaces (I haven't tried this, but I don't see why it wouldn't work)
workspace\RemoteSystemsConnections\profileName\CompileCommands
It appears that the compile commands are stored in an XML file, so copying
it over will cause any previously compile command settings to be lost.

I have opened a requirement for easier import/export of user actions.

thanks,

We put our custom compile commands under "User actions" instead of
"Compile".

Maybe that can be a work-around.

Peter,

That sounds like a good idea. We are going to use the iSeries Project
perspective to leverage all the benefits it provides. To compile a member

in

one of the source-files in the project, what I have been doing is to
right-click, choose Remote actions, then compile and then the compile
command I want. I don't see an option for "user actions". How do I get to

that from the project perspective?
