Re: Expanding one filter retrieves all filters

NOT ME!!! I started on the AS/400 in 1990, and now work on the Power-System running "IBM i" V7R1M0.
I never worked on System-36 or 38. <Joy Joy>

I started using WDSC 6.0 in 2004, but actively started using it 2006.

But, for people who have barely tried Rational Developer, the answer could be YES!
<sadly>

Out of approximate 12-15 developers, only 4 use Rational Developer at my company...

PS. A newbie (to RDP) is going to Common in September. I told that person that they should take the Intro Class to RDp/RDi at Common. They are really excited at the opportunity to attend Common. Wish I could go to myself. I have never been able to attend Common myself...
They got RDP installed on the work PC, but only fired it up, when I held their hand to show some pointers. I get the "Very nice", but don't have time to learn this "new fangle thing". Too many deadlines at the moment...
<Big Frown>

Maybe one day, my company will send me to Common! It is on my "bucket-List". <grin>

As someone who remembers when SEU was no more reliable than RDi is (back on the S/38), I just shake my head at things like this.  Would these people be happier with dumb terminals than they are with PCs?

I try to push Rational Developer to my fellow Developers. And sadly, with these stability issues, it SOURS them on RDP/RDI immediately....

A few have already gone back to "RELIABLE" SEU. Because they encounter one little glitch, and I get the "See that is why I don't use it..."
<Big Frown>

It used to be that IBM was "Trailing Edge Technology", it wasn't released until it was reliable.
(In General...)

For now, I have gone back to RDP 8, because I don't have all these little issues. It seems to be mostly little issue with Eclipse 4.2, rather than RDI.

I for one refuse to go back SEU, except for little test programs under 10-lines of code...
<LOL> I still use SEU about 1% of the time... <grin>
