We are currently planning to upgrade to IBM i v7.3 in the near future. We
are running the following development products (on Windows servers) and I
want to make sure they are supported to work along with IBM i 7.3, but
haven't found a definitive link online to verify that yet:

RDi at v 9.1.1.1
Rational Application Developer at v 9.1.1.2

Does anyone have a good link to show compatibility of these products to
interoperate with v 7.3 of IBM i?

I don't have a link to hand. My group has a wide mix of RDi versions,
all of which have worked on 5.4, 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3. Certainly, the
older RDi won't have the syntax checking for the new RPG, but if
'interoperate' means the ability to connect, edit, and compile, then I
can confirm that RDi 9.1 works with IBM i 7.3.

Why not upgrade RDi too? You're almost certainly entitled to 9.5 if
you have a licence to 9.1... I myself am madly in live with the
rename/refactoring. You can even do that before the IBM i upgrade.
