Re: RDI-Date last Changed

In which case, maybe we could ask Thomas if it would be possible to incorporate a preference or choice in a future edition of iSphere to change SRCDAT - or not. Thomas is very receptive to suggestions for improvement.

In the meantime, just use the standard COPY/PASTE functions in RSE?

Brian,
That's it. He's (was) using iSphere.
I can't see where there is any option to
change it.
Thanks! At least I know where it lives.

Just to clarify, your colleague is copying source members to different
libraries/files on different servers - correct?

Is he using the standard COPY/PASTE function in RSE, or the COPY MEMBERS
TO tool provided by the iSphere plug-in?

I have just run a little test. The standard COPY/PASTE does _not_
appear to affect the SRCDAT. However, iSphere _does_ change SRCDAT to
the current date. (There may be a Preference to change this behaviour,
I've not investigated further.)

I've searched both RPG and Midrange forums with no success. One of our
programmers using RDI has started saving his developed/changed source

using COPY from development to production and is losing all the previous

Is there any known solution to this? I'd hate to have him go back to
using FTP but...
To clarify, the target copy seems to change the SRCDAT to today's date
when the copy happens because the original source is not changed.
