Sure. I uploaded copied of both archives in the 7Zip format. Hope this
helps.

Any way you can load a download in another archive format? Our company
blocks ZIP files from web sites where the ZIP link is not an explicit
reference.

Thanks, Matt

Subject: [WDSCI-L] LPEX FreeMarker Template Plugin (was: Re: Code
Snippets)

All,

The template and snippets features in RDP are not very good and by
limiting usage to only free format sections of a source member it falls
short of being a complete template solution for RPG. One of the most
problematic examples of this for me is the fixed format P specs for
procedures. Without support for templates outside of free we cannot
develop a shop standard procedure template.

In order to overcome these limitations, I developed a new template
plugin
for the LPEX editor. The plugin allows a developer to define a template
with replaceable variables, looping constructs, and much more. It
captures
data for replacement variables by rendering forms dynamically with
support
for up to 4 different input types. I've also developed a template
builder
application to run on Windows and ease the creation of templates with
embedded prompt definitions.

How to get it

The entire project including the source code for the plugin (Java) as
wells as the template builder (C#) are available free of charge by
browsing to the project page hosted on Google code below. Download
binaries on the downloads page and follow RDP install steps on the
project
wiki or within the plugin zip file's Installation.txt. I am working on
an
installer that should make this easier in the future.

http://code.google.com/p/lpex-freemarker-template-plugin/

How it works

Using ctrl-enter from anywhere in a source member will present a list of

templates for that language from your hard drive (these parser
associations is configurable). Selecting a template renders a form (or
series of forms) based on the prompt definition within the chosen
template. Filling out the form then hitting enter will merge the
provided
data with the template (using the FreeMarker template engine) and output

the resulting text to the cursor position of the current source member.

The prompt definition is defined using XML within the first FTL comment
found in the template file. More details about the template format can
be
found in the project wiki.

[WDSCI-L] Code Snippets

We are not satisfied with the snippets and templates features of RDPi
for
our RPG programmers and are looking for another solution.

Requirements:
Injecting a block of code should be capable from content assist
(ctrl-space) regardless of whether the cursor is in a free format block
or

not.
If replaceable variables are found in the code block, it should present
an

interface for filling those values in.
Filling in replaceable variable values should be able to be done all
from
the keyboard without mouse interaction.
Code blocks must be pulled in from a central repository; the plugin must

not source them from the local PC

Is there a plugin out there that can do this already in RDPi or is it
possible to be developed as a plugin?

Can anyone point us in a good direction?

Thanks,
Robert Newton
