Re: RDP 8.0.1 Outline missing arrays

This would be a bug not an enhancement so opening an RFE is not the way to
go.
You want to go through your regular service channels and open a PMR/APAR so
the bug gets fixed - you will get faster response that way.

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?
