Re: Copy program from one connection to another -- WDSCI-L

David

As I replied, WDSC has never been able to copy/paste an object other than a SAVF - not so far as I know, anyhow. It has nothing to do with filters. But I could be wrong on this. I hope someone tells us how, because I hate having to create a SAVF for every object I want to copy to another connection. I want the functionality of ObjectConnect, with it's SAVRST* set of commands. Guess it's a candidate for a requirement or RFE.

Charles, I've no problems with pasting members into a source file. I'm trying to paste the program object into a library. The library is the *curlib in a library list filter. I've tried creating an object filter on QSYS/MYTARGETLIB but that gets the same result.

Tried Roger's solution with no luck either. Back to PDM for the moment :-(

Copy and past between filters works fine....

As long as the filter you're pasting into allows RSE to
determine which source file to place the code.

So for instance, if you use member filters that show all
member between multiple source files, you're not going to be
have to past into that.

I usually use object filters, set up to show all source
files. I've never had an issue pasting into them.

David,
It has been my experience that the copy/paste does not work between
connections using filters. I usually display the 'from'
objects/members using the iseries table view, selecting the
object/source file from the library list and right clicking show in
table. Then I can drag the objects to the remote systems

view, again

copying to the library list and not using a filter.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Copy program from one connection to another

Hi,

I'm having trouble with this on Rdp7.6. I don't remember such a
problem on WDSc6, just that I didn't do it much because of

the time it took.

In Connection1, I drill down into my object filter (or the

same if I

drill into the libraries filter), select my program object

right click

and copy.

In Connection2, I do the same. I have a filter pool with the same
object filters. The library list for the connection determines the
objects displayed. If I right click the paste option will show if I
want to paste in the libraries filter. I select the library name,
click paste and get :

Invalid transfer operation
The source mylib/mypgm OBJTYPE(*PGM),
cannot be transferred into the target myotherlib
OBJTYPE(*LIB:TEST-CUR)

Here, the target lib is the curlib for the connection. If I choose
another library, I get no message, but no copy either.

Bug or me?
