Worklight Studio is for mobile application development. It is free and
shell shares with RDi and as you discovered is shipped with the product.
For deployment there is a server portion which unfortunately is not
supported on the IBM i yet.

IBM Data Studio is IBM's tools for SQL development and tuning. This used
to cost money as was called Optim Development Studio. It is now free and
is shipped with the product. It integrates with RDi and gives enhanced SQL
development and database administration. The query tuning portion does not
apply to the DB2 for i database. You can still use IBM i Navigator for
that.

debug SQL

Subject: [WDSCI-L] what is worklight and sat
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
So I paid for one more year of RDI and now I have nine version 9.0
install discs. I understand a cd for windows, one for linux, etc. But I
got a lot of discs.
I have a disc for worklight studio and some discs for data studio.
what are these?
The cd with quick start guide is fairly useless. It has a bunch of 2
page PDFs that have links to the web site. Yes, that keeps it current,
but it would be much more useful if the htm from the web pages was
included, with links to get the most current version. Maybe this is just
wishful thinking on my part.
The guide also says if I purchased the EGL edition, install rational
business developer before rational developer. I don't think I purchased
the EGL edition , but I think adding the word EGL to the disc would go
a long way to distinguish products rather than looking to see if the word
'business' is part of the product name or not.
Finally, the instructions say:
click on one of the two install options displayed on the launchpad:
*Install RPG and COBOL Tools feature* or *Install RPG and COBOL Tools
feature and Modernization Tools, Java Edition feature
*
Since my disc says "rgp and cobol tools" I assume that is the version I
need to install.
I apologize for ranting, but I thing the install could be a heck of a lot
clearer.
and I still don't know what worklight studio is or data studio is.
