Edmund,
Yes, re-wording is fine! No problems.
I will open an PMR, which generates an APAR, I assume. At least I
consistently reproduce this issue...
Thanks!

Hi Ken,
The RFE is great and I like having all of your votes to help boost its
priority.
But what you are describing here, seems to be a straight bug.
Upon further investigation (Barbara Morris beat me to it :-)
The rename in the problem description wouldn't necessarily cause the final
line to exceed the source length. The line ends at column 63. Clicking on
Refactor gives an error immediately, without giving the option to give a
new name.
It seems to be an issue with a name followed by a left-parenthesis where
the right-parenthesis is on a later line. For the following code, trying to
rename "abc" gets the error, but trying to rename "def" is fine.
XML_Input = abc ( OldOrd : NewOrd) // Renaming abc works fine
;
XML_Input = def ( OldOrd // Renaming def fails right away
: NewOrd);
(Nothing to do with **FREE; it's the same in column-limited code.)
So this is clearly a bug.
Feel free to open an APAR. In the mean time, I will open a defect and get
to it as soon as I can as I don't want the next release to go out with this
in it.
Are you OK with me rewording the RFE to be more general, it will help it
move forward?

Edmund,
Thanks so much for all the improvement on RDI! It has been GREAT! Like
refactor-rename!
Yes, it was **free format. My source is 262, to force me to use a modern
tool set like RDI.
Our production source is 112. So I check for code going past column-100,
before promoting.
So, I was looking to rename: "Create_XML_Input" to
"Create_Order_Merge_XML_Input".
Because it goes through a "Order-Merge" process, more descriptive for the
next developer.
The normal global replace with the WHOLE-WORD works great in LPEX, just
have to be extra carefully, in case it goes out of scope. Which is why the
Refactor-Rename is so AWESOME! Takes some of the worry and double-checking
out!
Yes, it would be NICE, but not a "MUST-HAVE" feature. I just expected it to
work, since it was a valid "*free" Statement.
Maybe I am the only one who runs into this small thing.
I only brought this up, because RDI is supposed to be 100% compatible with
**free format.
I start my coding in column-01! <Big Smile> I do NOT need any punch card
limitation!!!!! Never used a punch-card-machine for writing code, that was
before my time.
This was coded inside of a procedure, with all the code in column-01. No
logic statements in this particular procedure.
My new formatted code: it does NOT past column 70! <grin> //
00000011111111112222222222333333333344444444445555555555666666666677777777778888888888999999999900000000000

XML_Input = Create_Order_Merge_XML_Input( OldOrd // C016
: NewOrd // C016
: OldRteParts // C016
: NewRteParts // C016
) // C016 ; // C016
Yup, they still require us to mark code with "Change-Markers"... <LOL>
PS. This was a SQLRPGLE service program, if that makes a difference in how
the parser is interpreted.
I will input an RFE for this tomorrow...

Hi Ken,
At this point we can rename anything that doesn't cause the line after the
rename to be longer than will fit in your SRC-PF.
We don't have the functionality yet, to reflow the line, which would also
imply formatting preferences etc.
We certainly would entertain an RFE requesting this.
I am a little curious why this rename failed. You current line is 50
characters. If this is not fully free form, it was probably indented by at
least 8 characters. How long was your new procedure name and what is the
record length of your source-pf?
I would have expected this to fit for a reasonable length procedure name.
HTH

Hi,
I am using RDI 9.5.1.2 and tried to use refactor rename, and I got this
Error:
Renaming across line boundaries is not supported. Cannot rename
"Create_xml_input" on line 1874: "XML_Input = Create_XML_Input( OldOrd".
Here is my code:
XML_Input = Create_XML_Input( OldOrd // Line 1874
: NewOrd
: OldRteParts
: NewRteParts
)
;
So, I assume that refactor does not support code that goes across multiple
Lines?
Oh yeah, the refactor took a LONG TIME... I guess it wanted to rebuild the
outline first or something. Took well over 1-minutes. I guess in this case
a scan & replace is better and faster... <LOL>
I was trying to give my procedure a more meaningful name.
Should I even bother to open a PMR on this? Maybe this requires a RFE? Not
sure.
