Re: Trouble merging my changes

David

I have to recommend (enthusiastically) using PDM here - option 55 is fantastic for this, and there's nothing in RDP that quite matches it - closest thing is the RSE Extensions from softlanding.com, if you are interested in that.

For now, go to the member option of PDM and put 55 on either source member. You will probably want to use a different member for everything, including target, until you are satisfied with the result. You specify a root, maintenance, and target members. You will get a split SEU window with the root above and maintenance below.

I hope your source is not to large for SEU, then you have problems. But you might be able to put the 2 members side-by-side in RDP, even if not using compare. Or maybe get the Softlanding RSE Extensions and see if those help. Be aware that the RSE Extension merge eliminates all source dates - or rather, sets them to the current date. You might want to save the target to a different member at first, then copy back to the root.

Hi,

I have an RPGLE member that I have changed while another developper was also changing it in another library. Now I have to insert my changes in the production version of the member. I cannot use the compare feature as the source is too large and too many changes have been made since I copied the production version into my development library. So, I filter all my changes by date. Now I know what to insert, but how do I find out where to insert it? I can press ctrl w to see the line immediately above the change, find that line in the target source and copy. Now to find the next change I need to filter my changes again.

What am I doing wrong?
