The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

WDSC / RDi seems so big, so complicated that the *thought* of it scares
people off. Once they start using it, even us dinosaurs find it's not
so terrible after all.
I started using CODE/400 and VARPG when they became available for
OS/2. I _still_ haven't made WDSC my "preferred" interface under
Windows simply because it reminds me of real mainframe PL/I --
EVERYTHING you can imagine being in there (somewhere, if you can
find it!) I'll explicitly use it for various activities, but not yet
day in, day out.
I was mostly impressed with the earlier 'Lite' version. Does that
still exist? IMO, that's one of WDSC's failings -- it doesn't
provide an entry-level clear replacement for SEU/PDM. But rather it
provides a whole bunch of stuff that I'll likely never use. I
suspect that a big group of developers see the same view.
If I had a stripped-down WDSC that I could add components to as
their need arose, I'd be much happier.
Even the little bits of java I do are done in a separate Eclipse
install.
