Re: RSE Extensions...Compare not working

Correct.

Looks like "RSE Extensions" has a bug?

Sorry to take so long getting back on this.

@Mike, if I can open both members in edit mode does this rule out the
issue you were describing?

This afternoon I closed RDP after collapsing all my connections.
I then renamed the \metadata\.log file.
I opened rdp and checked the new log file. There were no errors.
I expanded my production connection to the member I wished to compare.
There were no errors in the log file.
I then tried to do a compare using RSE Extensions. The following
entries
were in the log file.
!ENTRY org.eclipse.rse.ui 4 0 2013-05-22 16:12:24.407

Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi Robert,

I don't know about compare specifically but generally when you can
navigate to a file member and try to open it and nothing happens that is
likely DDM failing because there is an entry in your library list that
you
don't have access to or that no longer exists - typically the latter...

Sent by: [4]wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx



I am using RDp 8.5.1. I have the Softlanding plugin for RSE installed
and
use it's functionality quite regularly.

Today I attempted to compare ( and then apply ) a change I had made on
my
test box to the production box. I have a connection defined for each
box.

I right clicked on the member on the production box and selected RSE
Extensions->Compare and selected the compare member on test box
connection
and library. Open for Edit was also selected.

When I pressed OK the dialog box disappeared but nothing opened. I
tried
this a number of times, even changed to Open for Browse and still
nothing
opened.

I did a -clean and nothing opened.

I tried the reverse (opening the test member to compare to the
production
member) on the test connection's member. Nothing happened.

I made a copy of the member in the test test library and this time it
opened.

So, does the compare not work against multiple connections?
If it should work has anyone experienced this before?
Where would I look to see what the problem is?

Thanks,

Robert Rogerson
