Re: Editing a .JS file on the IFS

This is a bug I think Matt. I was discussing it with the RDi developers last week and intend to open a PMR if I can reproduce the behaviour easily. I am busier than a one-armed paper hanger for the next few days so if you need the issue reported faster maybe you can open the PMR.

So I used the wrong file type last email. I just created a new .JS file on my home folder, opened it with the installed JS Editor (RDI 9.6.0.3), saved and then did a Save As. The file ended up in the RemoteSystemsTempFiles location, as indicated in the "Enter or Select the parent folder:" input. When I perform the Save as mine is set like "RemoteSystemsTempFiles/[connection name]/home/[user name]". The default file system within eclipse / RDi is to pick a local project from the workspace.

You can right click and copy then paste into another folder on the IFS but I don't see a way to save as to the same location the original opened from. Except you would need to create a project to a IFS location then you can save to that project folder.

Vern & David,

I have no idea. I have not purposely installed a JS editor on my machine (other than Notepad++). I have the RPG/Cobol version of RDi only - I just happened to see the JavaScript Editor option in the "Open With" dialog.

Are you saying this is NOT part of RDi?

Thanks
Greg

Hi Greg

Just to press a bit further - is the JavaScript Editor native to RDi, or is it an external editor. Even an external editor will open in a tab in RDi, so this might not be clear.

Cheers
Vern

As far the "save-as" - it does point to the RemoteSystems temp files.

I've seen where a text file is edited with TextPad, since that's the associated one now - it edited the one in the workspace and did not push it back up - if I use the built-in RDi text editor, it DOES update the file in the IFS.

I have not looked for a way to make it work with external editors like the way this did - I'm pretty certain I missed something along the way.

Cheers
Vern

So I edited a javascript file in RDi by navigating to a directory on the IFS. I then saved it using a different file name. But it wasn't actually there... The file only existed in my RDi Workspace.

Is this by design?
