Re: Build command for Aldon objects in LPEX was(Re: Short cut keys for a menu option...)

Hi Matt,

Thanks for this. I'll be taking a look at it myself.

However, you might want to put the code in the wiki (
http://wiki.midrange.com/index.php/Main_Page) since code.midrange.com is
designed to host bit's of code related to issues you're having instead of
having it mangled by the list software. code.midrange.com is not designed
as a permanent code repository.

I'd check with David first, since the code is for a specific CMS. If he'd
prefer it be hosted someplace else, I'm sure we could find an alternate
host.

It was asked recently about being able to send key strokes to RDi to
activate the Aldon compile option from within LPEX. It can be done but
that's not very reliable.

So I took Scott Klement's tool (BUILD) and made some modifications to
create non-typical CRT objects like SQL Tables using an Aldon create
command, ACMSCREATE or ACMSPDMCR1.

Here is the article link for reference (you should just need basic
access to get the article and the original code)

http://systeminetwork.com/article/updates-general-purpose-build-tool



Then I added the features that I wanted and removed Scott's specific
features.



To use this command activate the Compile menu and choose to work with
compile commands. You add this command as one of your compile commands.
I use this as my base, BUILD OBJ(&L/&N) SRCFILE(&L/&F) DBGVIEW(*SOURCE)
REPLACE(*YES) USECMS(*YES) OPTION(*EVENTF).

Now I can use Ctrl+Shift+C in LPEX editor for SQL or pseudo source
object types and have them create using Aldon create command.



This new code added has been lightly tested with Aldon nor fully tested
with the objects assigned to delta releases or the same object in
multiple releases. And there are bits that are specific to our set up.
Using this newer version of the command also does not allow for the
errors list to appear, yet. The keyword OPTION(*EVENTF) is not passed
from the Aldon command to the system create commands. You might get the
events file to be used I believe if you modify the create commands in
used by Aldon and add the OPTION(*EVENTF) to all the CRTx commands.

Thanks to Scott Klement for providing the base BUILD command.



Thanks, Matt
