Hi,

I work with a lot of Microsoft Developers, and I was debugging some code with a Microsoft Developer....

The "Vendor Code" was using a Try-Catch (Dot-Net Developer terminology, actually "Monitor/EndMon") on XML-into op-code. To ignore if any failure...

I was showing the Microsoft Developer how the Vendor Web-service was giving us Bad Data. Return a field as 9,0 versus 9,6. Which did not get load by the XML-INTO statement. It was ignore by the Monitor Statement, and no Error checking! <frown> That is Not how I code the XML-INTO!

I quickly open RDI 9.5.0.2 in Debug. "Filter" XML-INTO statements, and add break point on all the XML-INTO lines, approximately 17-lines. (Using the Find Filter mode).

To my shock, the Microsoft Developer said "Wow! That is pretty neat! We do NOT have that filter capability in Visual Studio". <Big Smile>

He shout over the other Microsoft Developer, and said wow, IBM RDI can filter statements in the code to add break points!!!! <Joy Joy>

I finally did a "One-Up" on the Microsoft Developers!!! <Big Smirk>
