Re: iSphere 1.4.0 spooled file subsystem

Did I miss the mention of the cache folder being cleared when RDi is closed in the document? Normally, I am not in the habit of clearing out my spooled files on a daily basis unless I know I have opened a report that contains sensitive information.

I do not restart daily, at most once a week, although, I did have to restart constantly with version 8.5.1.

I have not used the plug in long enough to restart yet and notice that the folder was cleared. I like the clear at shut down feature.

" Anyway, I suggest to move the cache from [workspace] down to [workspace]\.metadata\plugins\de.taskforce.isphere\iSphereSpooledFiles
because I do not like the idea of plugins creating projects in my workspace." Question, then why is [workspace] the default location? I personally do not care where a cache location is if there is an option to clean it up or know its location easily. Do you have plans to provide an input box on the preferences for the spooled file cache folder location?

Thanks, Matt

Matt,

The cache at [workspace]\iSphereSpooledFiles is cleared automatically when you shutdown RDi (at least on my PC). Do you really need to clear the cache over the day? I am just asking, because I do not know whether or not you already noticed that it is cleared automatically.

Anyway, I suggest to move the cache from [workspace] down to [workspace]\.metadata\plugins\de.taskforce.isphere\iSphereSpooledFiles
because I do not like the idea of plugins creating projects in my workspace.

Last but not least big thanks to taskforce.de for the plugin. Good job! I have first seen it yesterday and I am impressed.

Thomas.

Frank,
One additional enhancement I think this product needs and its one
that I have not seen in the default for the one from Softlanding.
I would like to clear the local cache of opened SPLFs. This
location can grow and I the other's product that folder can get really
large.

Thanks, Matt

Paul,

I will add the source member description to the Excel output.

iSphere doesn`t support natively *USERASCII spooled files. But there
are other vendors out there who provide conversion of *USERASCII
spooled files to PDF, if the data stream contains PCL. Here is one I
have found who support this.

http://www.pdfing.com/pfeatures.html

As long as an external product provides a way to convert a spooled
file by a CL command and puts the output to the IFS it should be no
problem to integrate this external product into iSphere.

Frank

Thanks Frank. I've upgraded both the client and server side to v1.4
and I am happy to report that the excel export for the search results
works fine for me. (Fingers are crossed for the "create member
filter..." option in the near future.) One thing: In the exported
excel file, is it too much trouble to get the source member
description? It would be useful, but not essential.

I also tried out the spooled file viewer, and viewing plain spooled
files works great (seems to be quicker than other methods, too!), but
we have a ridiculous system here where a windows machine "prints" a
word document as a postscript file (or maybe it is a PCL
file) which is copied to a stream file on the IFS which is then read
and printed line by line to a *USERASCII spooled file (thanks Scott
Klement... I think), and those spooled files are not viewable in your
system. This isn't a huge problem, as they are not viewable from the
OUTQ either, but I was hoping against hope that the option was now
available. Do you think this is just a matter of writing my own
conversion routine, or is it just an impossibility to view some kinds
of spooled files?


-Paul.

@ Paul

With the new iSphere Version 1.4.0 it is now possible to export the
search results to Excel. The "Create member filter from the search
results" stuff will be realized later.

Betreff: [WDSCI-L] iSphere's source search


Hi Frank,

I've been using iSphere for a while and I like some of the additional
functionality, and the speedier source search is nice.
However, I've wanted a feature in both the iSphere and original RDi
source search view for ages (
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=33694
)
.

I want the ability to create a member filter (or object filter) from
the results of a source search. I would also like the ability to
export the search results to text file (or CSV) with and without the
found source lines included.

Can this be done in iSphere?


-Paul.


PS If anyone wants to know how to create a member filter in RDi/RDp/
WDSC using a combination of FNDSTRPDM, windows clipboard, Excel and
Notepad, then let me know and I'll write something. It isn't the
safest or easiest method, but it's the only way I've found.

Isaac,

iSphere already contains a binding directory editor. You can download
iSphere here. http://www.taskforce-it.de/downloads.php

Hi everyone.

Does anyone knows of any free plugin for working with binder
directories from RDi, with all the functionality of the wrkbnddir
command? I'm planning to create a plugin for this, but I don't want to
re-invent the wheel...

Thanks!
