Re: Parameter names in Outline view prototypes - PLEASE!

Thanks Violaine,

Just to clarify.  I'm perfectly happy hitting refresh to get DDS changes or 
changes from another
source member into my outline view.

But when working in a given RPGLE source member, I'd like to see the outline 
view for that member get
updated without a "full verify".

After all, the syntax editor (usually)* knows when the D-spec is completed 
correctly, couldn't the
outline view be updated at that point without hitting the i5?

Thanks again,
Charles Wilt


*I say usually because I have seen cases where it thinks there are still 
problems, mostly when I'm
using long names with the ellipses (...)

Hey Charles, Peter,
Firstly, this request (parameter names in outline view) is 
already on our list, I have added your feedback to help 
increase the priority of the item

Secondly, the RPG outline view is very different than that 
for DDS.  The DDS outline view does not require any 
communications with the iSeries (RPG outline view does a full 
verify function in order to populate itself).
Having said that, we also have a requirement to enable RPG 
outline view to work asynchronously, which would then allow 
the dynamic update you are requesting.

thanks,

Even more so, this also happens in the DDS editor.

<some very good stuff snipped>

The other big item on my wish list would be having the outline view 
refresh itself.  I don't mean automatically doing a 

"refresh".  I mean 

when I add a line to a source member
D myvar       s       10a

Then myvar would show in the outline view without hitting refresh.  
More importantly, "myvar" would be available via Code 

Assist at that 

time to.  Since the syntax checker usually knows when the 

definition 

is complete it would seem that it should be possible to update the

outline

view.  In addition, the
Java editor works this way.  There's no "refresh" needed to make 
variables/procedures available to Code Assist in Java.

It's just a little frustrating to code a procedure interface and a 
bunch of local variables then have to refresh the outline 

view before 

I can use any of them in Code Assist.

Thanks,

Charles Wilt
