Re: SQL Auto formatting -- WDSCI-L

Thanks Mike, I turned off all those options years ago. Automatic
formatting is not to my taste.

Eric, split line is fine. Frankly it's what regular Enter should have been
doing all along, so I never use the regular Enter any more. It's the very
first weird LPEX thing I noticed when WDSC came out. It's the first thing
I have to try explain to new users: why Enter does not split the line like
in every other editor in the world.

Perhaps my original email was unclear: When I press numpad-Enter in an
SQLRPGLE member, the line on which I pressed numpad-enter is relocated.
Sometimes it slides all the way to the left (to column 8), but sometimes it
slides to the RIGHT 2 spaces (I cannot identify a pattern), but it ALWAYS
moves. When I do the same in an RPGLE member, that line it is NOT ALTERED
at all, it never moves. I can't seem to get the SQLRPGLE parser to stop
doing it.

I could understand the new line (the right side of the split) being moved
somewhere weird, or indented under the original line, but the relocation of
the original line (the left part of the split) is what I do not
understand. This only occurs in SQLRPGLE members, not in RPGLE members.
That seems odd.

By default, the numpad Enter will split the line at the current location.

In the editor's command line, issue 'query keyAction.numpadEnter' and
'query keyAction.enter' to see.

If you want the numpad Enter to behave the same as the normal Enter, you
can go to the LPEX Editor>User Key Actions preference page and define
numpadEnter to invoke enterRPG.

Thanks,
Eric

Thanks Vern, I have the latest version all updated and do not use **free
due to being tied to 6.1, just "old school" /free. I'm aware of the
regular RPG formatting options and turned them all off too but that didn't
change anything in either SQL or regular. I have turnd off every
formatting setting in all sections and still odd formatting occurs when I
type a line and press the keypad enter, not the other Enter key. Luckily,
ctrl-shift-F formats it back to be correct. I don't use SQLRPGLE very
often so I really didn't notice it till just now.

Hi Stuart

There's another preference section for auto-formatting RPG istelf - that
would affect both RPGLE & SQLRPGLE members, however.

If you are in a more-recent version of RDi, there might be the fully-free
formatting, as well - where you put **free in position 1of line 1.

Or you might need to upgrade, as there have been some issues in prior
releases.

Any idea how to stop auto formatting in SQL RPGLE members? It's driving

nuts (well, more nuts).

I have turned off every setting for "Free-form SQL Formattiing" but it
still formats my NON-SQL code (regular old RPG code) in SQLRPGLE

members.

It does it poorly as well -- just shoves everything to beginning of

line.
