No problem, I have lived this long (8 years) on WDSC, RDi, RDp, RDi without a Hawkeye interface I can live with the method of running their commands, produce a report and then open it in the basic LPEX editor to do more research. Thanks for the consideration.
Thanks, Matt

Matt,
the feature you are requesting is of course interesting for you. At the moment I can`t see that this would be interesting for a lot of people. There are a lot of interesting things I would like to implement to iSphere immediately and also for me the day has only 24 hours so I must decide which feature to implement and which not. I am sorry but I can`t see that the feature you requested is a big benefit for all RDi developers.
Frank

Ken, I have asked them for the same thing and got the same response you got.
Frank, I agree generally that Hawkeye needs to start providing RDi plugins but I used Hawkeye as an example reference for the potential to use my own type of search tool and have the results show up in the iSphere search view.
For instance, I have a rudimentary search tool that looks for things in code
that have to be or are not allowed before I push the code up. Now I
suppose I could write my own version based on what you have started but I am not a java programmer and don't really have __that__ much time on my hands.
If still you don't agree with me I will not push it further since you are providing all these great tools for free.
Charles, We have in the recent past and the price was seen to be a little too expensive, since we can get most of what we need from Hawkeye it's was denied.
Thanks, Matt

Matt,
I have complained to Hawkeye, that they don't have a plug-in for RDI.
They basically say there isn't a big demand for that...
Which is understandable, since we have a PAID LICENSE for RDI, and over 1/2 the RPG developers won't even try RDI... <Sad Face>
But, tell Hawkeye, that a RDI Plug-in is a needed feature.
I have talk to Renee G. at Hawkeye Customer support. I mentioned that Softlanding/Turnover has Plug-in support for WDSC/RDI for over approximately 10-years.
Please let Hawkeye customer support know that would be an important feature to have! Especially to keep Hawkeye relevant in the future...
On the plus side, Hawkeye is now doing more reference support for SQL Statements! Very cool! They need to have an RDI Plug-in! <grin>
Since we have SoftLanding/Turnover, I typically use their built in cross reference tool in their package. Sadly, it does not field level reference.
Oh well, that is why I often use the IBM Search Source files. It seems to get faster every release.
PS. If you are a Hawkeye Customer, please let them know an RDI Plug-in is very much needed! <Big Grin> Maybe if more customers voice this, they might "Eventually" do it... <LOL> I will NOT HOLD my BREATH... <smirk>

Matt,
of course we could do this but I think this is really the job of Hawkeye.
Hawkeye is a commercial product and I assume you also have to pay a maintenance fee every year. They should spend some money to provide a RDi interface for Pathfinder. I can understand you being frustrated due to no RDi support of Pathfinder and searching for a solution to make this work but as I said. This the job of Hawkeye.
Sorry.
Frank

Frank,
Since I do not have an account with source forge, I will submit my request via midrange.com.
We use Hawkeye Pathfinder and they currently do not have an interface into RDI of any means. The best I have been able to produce is a user option that is only allowed on the standard RSE objects/member filters (I use Aldon LM(i) filters for the majority of my work). The HAWKEYE product allows for *OUTFILEing many different types of cross references.
What I am asking for is if there a way to have a special search that executes a command that I make up and when run I end up formatting its results in a format compatible with the iSphere search results and then iSphere will display my results in search result view. It would be up to me to format the results properly but your code would build the result table, execute my command, wait for my command to finish and then your tool reads
my results. I would like this option for the command to be as variable as
you have the search string today in case I want to run a different command from HAWKEYE.
Thanks, Matt
