The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

I have 2 problems. Refreshing the outline or verifying the source, the
process is taking a few minutes to complete.
It pulls in all the definitions and copy directives so it takes forever.
Personally, this is one thing driving me nuts about WSDC. I work with
multiple languages in Eclipse and the outline view for RPG is by far the
most frustrating one I've seen. The outline view SHOULD automatically
parse code as you type. When local fields, procedures and sub routines are
added to the code, they should be available in the outline view
IMMEDIATELY. External field definitions should really be the only thing
saved for when the outline is refreshed. This would make the outline view
200% better since external definitions will never change as frequently as
the code.
Optionally, I think they should cache all external definitions. That way
when you open a member using a file or include that has already be cached,
refreshing the outline is completely unnecessary. It just pulls the
definition from the cache.
I just cannot understand why parsing RPG would be so difficult that WSDC
could not work this way.
