Re: Two New RPG oriented RFEs for RDi

#2 is particularly useful, but I keep common procedure definitions
(including Java) in copy books so I don't have to define them in every
program that I use them in. I have to admit though that I didn't do that as
much when I didn't use service programs as much.

Please take a look at them and vote for them if you like the idea.
The first one has been needed for a long time - it asks for an update to
the Java method call wizard so you can select multiple methods in a single
usage. This makes it much more usable and avoids having to tidy up
duplicate working variables that were generated. There used to be a
wonderful utility out of Belgium on the web that did this but it has long
ago faded away.

The second one calls for the templates for the procedure and D-spec
wizards to be user editable. Right now you have to create your own
templates and snippets if the standard IBM ones don't match the shop's
coding style - or else you have to edit th results by hand which is
somewhat self defeating. This RFE would cure that problem.

All votes are welcome and if you think of a "tweak" or two you'd like to
see to the RFE then please add your own comments.
