Re: Convert sources for RDi

Dittos!!!!

I use the Linoma RPG Toolbox RDI Plug-in!!! <Joy Joy>

I high light the code inside of LPEX, and right-click and convert!

It is great! I have the option NOT to change the Source Date when converting to Free!

Love it! I convert all my code to 100% Free-format using that Tool!
Very few things do not convert.

I have been using the RPG Toolbox for over 15-years! It is a Great Product. And love the RDI plug-in in my Beloved Development Environment RDI 9.1!!!
<Big Smile>


PS. I love learning from Craig'ss stuff, he is one smart guy!

Cannot wait for the new RDi 9.1.1 on Dec 12th...
<Impatient> Hopefully an Early Christmas Present! <LOL>

At my previous employer, I bought Linoma's RPG Toolbox and I highly recommend it.


I haven't tried Craig's stuff although I have briefly looked at it.

There are some free tools that can help you with the conversion - at
least for RPG - you can find them at www.jcrcmds.com - Craig Rutledge
has written them. One for sure is JCR4MAX - Craig says this on his
page, "Designed to run immediately after the CVTRPGSRC command. This
utility does many things I feel the CVTRPGSRC command should have done."

So you would use CVTRGPSRC, as Darren suggests, then run JCR4MAX - and
the source is included, so you can make it behave as you want it to.

Then there is JCR4PROTO, which converts subroutines and CALLB and all
into prototypes. I've used that less than JCR4MAX.

And he has JCR5FREE - this converts columnar calculations to /free -
so can a wizard in RDi, so you will want to compare the results - some
people don't like what RDi does.

If you want a commercial product, then look at Linoma's RPG Toolbox -
www.linomasoftware.com is the place to go.

Hello,
as we are starting using RDi, we have a lot of our sources in OPM
(RPG and COBOL). And most of functionality on RDi works only on ILE sources.
Please do you have any experience about converting sources from OPM to ILE?
Has this conversion any big troubles?
I know only about CL sources, that from ILE CL you can't use retrieve
source command...
Thanks for any advices.

Br,
Pavel
