Re: RDP 8.0.1 Outline missing arrays

Hi Jeff

That sounds really strange to me, and I'd report it as a bug, if it is happening this way.

I'm using RDp 7.6, and I have source with both CTDATA arrays and regular arrays. Both show up in the Fields section - global level in this case. As an example, here are the D-specs for a CTDATA and for a run-time array -

D DAYS S 2 0 DIM(12) CTDATA PERRCD(1)
D DASH S 1 DIM(104)

When I look in the Fields list, I see this, with each expanded to show usage (I'll fake the layout, since we can't attach stuff here)

- DASH : Character (1) DIM(104)
+ 2582 (M)
- DAYS : Packed Decimal (2,0) DIM(12)
+ 1265
+ 1815

So if you do NOT get this, I consider that to be a bug - I've been able to see any and all arrays for years in the various versions of WDSC and RD*.

You could even submit it at that RFE site that was posted about here!

Vern,
I can see my compile time arrays in the fields section, but no other arrary
defined with the Dim keyword.
They do not show anywhere in the outline view.

This creates a lot more work to try to find where the array is used as I have to
search the code for the string Arr(..

Hmmm - I've always seen arrays - they will have a dim() indication in
the description, not in the name.

When I refresh the outline view on an existing RPGLE program that contains
stand
alone arrays, the array definitions do not show in any of the outline areas.
Is this a setting that I missed or a possible bug?
