Re: Program verifier

From reading the other posts I must be the odd man out. I use verify a lot. For me it is quick and accurate. Using the verifier is my preferred method of identifying and eliminating coding errors. Once I have the errors taken care of, then I compile.

I quit using the Verifier long ago because the errors that I was getting didn't
match the compiler. I didn't take the time to report the issues.

Hi Jon
Believe me, we are well aware of the strong desire of certain people to run
on Macs :-)
It turns out that your are in good company and 2 of our architects run on
Macs as well.

As you astutely pointed out, having the RPG rich editing independent of PV
means we can get that function on the Mac without porting those native
DLLs.
1) This is only part of the problem. We need to get all of our
dependencies to support Mac. However I am hearing some good news on
this
front.
2) I was under the impression that Program Verifier is still important
functionality. Are you saying that you would get the same error feedback
from compiles and that you don't really see PV as critical function?

How do the rest of you feel about the importance of Program Verifier?
