Thanks all for the replys! It will give us a few items to look at.

RTC Enterprise Edition does provide dependency based build.
It calculate the dependencies based on the information stored in the
compiled objects.
I.e. you need to build it successfully once and from then on it will only
rebuild what is necessary.
Note that RTC EE is a separately purchased product that integrates with
RDi and does not come free with RDi.
One final caveat, RTC EE does not understand dependencies through embedded
SQL as these are not stored in the compiled objects. Other solutions like
ARCAD or Fresche will handle those as they have very robust impact
analysis tools.
Bottom line: yes RTC EE will handle your DDS scenario just fine for a
cost.

Simple answer - no.

For this, you will need to acquire a 3rd-party tool that provides
Version Control and Change Management facilities. IBM does not provide
such tools for the IBM i, (server-based or client-based). (It <used> to
provide the 5250 tools, ADM and ADT many years ago, but these were
discontinued.)

iProjects does nothing with your code after you promote it to the server
- unless - you use the CL/CMD "build style" stubs to inject your own,
custom "make" routines.
