Re: RDi 9.5.0.3 fixpack is now available!

I didn't do anything special to get Run SQL Scripts to work. When I select it, it opens up. It did ask me to log in separately, which I did.

I put an RFE in to have Run SQL Scripts always available.

I’m glad that Kurt is excited … but I have two problems with this.

1) The option only appears for RPG SQL sources - not COBOL. Haven’t checked for C or CL but I’m guessing it will also be missing there. Wouldn’t have noticed this but I’m teaching an Intro to IBM i for mainframe COBOL folks this week.

2) The option appears but nothing happens. I’m guessing that is because I have not plugged Studio into RDi - I run it free-standing. Can the IBMers here please confirm this? I would have expected the option to only appear if the feature was enabled in the product but ...

Excellent news. Very pumped about this fix pack.

Surprised to see Run SQL Scripts available from within RDi. That's excellent! Except I don't understand why this option is only available when you have a SQLRPGLE source selected. I understand wanting access to it when working in SQL RPG, but I find I want access to SQL all the time, even if I'm working on native I/O RPG (or even CL - honestly anytime I want to look at data, which is any point during the day).

With that said, I think access to Run SQL Scripts via RDi is absolutely amazing. Previously I only ever used it very rarely (pretty much only if I was testing a stored procedure) because getting to it via Navigator was horribly annoying. I'm confident that I'll be using it quite a bit now. Maybe I'll finally stop using STRSQL?
