Re: new user question

Dale,

I'll look into it more when I have a little more time, but maybe I'm
looking in the wrong direction. What is your current library? The
current library can be set on the connection properties or in your user
profile. For the search function, the event file is created in your
current library. So the current library used will need to be one to which
you have authority to add files.

First, check the connection properties: (These instructions are for WDSC
7.0. I don't know if things have changed a little in
-In the RSE view, right-click on the connection and select properties;
-On the left-hand side of the properties window, click on Subsystems;
-On the right-hand side there should be a iSeries Commands tab, click it;
-Toward the bottom, there is an entry to specify the Current library. Mine
is generally '*USRPRF'

If the connection is *USRPRF, you'll need to change it to a library where
you can add and update files. (Programmers here only have *USE authority
to QSYS.)

I'm not sure what the problem would be for compiling in batch. Even if
you've opened the source through a filter which cross multiple libraries,
the event file is supposed to be created in the library where the program
or module will be stored. Again, if I get some more time and think of
something else, I'll let you know.

Re: [WDSCI-L] new user question

Michael,

I'm glad you got a kick out of my Sig line. I only use it the
first few times I am in a forum and see if anyone notices. You're the

first.

My compile command is:
CRTRPGPGM PGM(&O/&N) SRCFILE(&L/&F) SRCMBR(&N) REPLACE(&R)

OPTION(*SRCDBG)

CRTRPGMOD MODULE(&O/&N) SRCFILE(&L/&F) SRCMBR(&N) REPLACE(&R)
OPTION(*EVENTF) DBGVIEW(*SOURCE)



If I run the search from the menu item 'search' across the top, it
defaults to library QSYS. When I change it to the library I want to
search, I get the error message listed in my first message, but in
the commands log window, a list of everything it searches and

28 members match the Find string in file QRPGSRC.
Cause . . . . . : The Find string function has completed normally.
There were 28 members that matched the Find string, in the file QRPGSRC.


But I can't find a list of the found programs.


There seems to be some problem in my library list or how RDI is

searching.

After searching, I use remote system explorer to select one of the
programs and press enter ,and RDI starts "fetching children of..."
and I have to show commands and select cancel. Then it still takes
several minutes to cancel.

The log file shows:

Dale,

It seems odd that it complains about the EVFEVENT file in QSYS. If I
recall correctly, the event file should be placed in the library where

the

compiled program or module object is stored. Can you prompt the compile

command being used and see if there's something unusual on it? Perhaps
post it here so we can see what's up.

Michael

P.S. I love your disclaimer/warning--I hardly noticed it until I was

about

to remove it from my reply and the words egg and warm oven caught my

eye.

I'm working with a vendor whose software support leaves more than a

little

to be desired--you've turned an otherwise mostly irritating day into one

filled with laughter and smiles. Thanks!

[WDSCI-L] new user questions

I am learning to use RDI 8 and I am having some problems.


First, I discovered that you cannot compile in batch. It looks

like

everything is ok, but no object is created. So I shut that off and

all

is well. But that was a hard one for me to figure out.



I am a little confused about the best way to filter my source code.

I

can filter to MYLIB/QRPGSRC or MYLIB/QRPGLESRC or any other source

file

and get what I expect. But I can also filter the entire library

MYLIB

and see all my compiled programs and select programs to work with

from

there.

Does it make a difference how I get to the source code?



Finally, search does not work for me. In remote system explorer, I

put

the cursor on MYLIB and enter a file name. I want to find all

programs

in the library that use that file.



I always get an error EVFF8002:U
Details say:

com.ibm.etools.iseries.subsystems.qsys.api.QSYSEncapsulatedException:

/QSYS.LIB/QSYS.LIB/EVFEVENT.FILE/EVFEVENT.MBR: Object in library

QSYS

specified incorrectly.


I get the same error if I use search from the tool bar.

Could my search problems be related to how I set up my filters?
