Re: Parsing of local source -- WDSCI-L

Hi Jon,

Could you please send me the meta data log to my email please? I'd very much like to fix the NPE that caused the issue. Or if you would rather just the stack exception.

Thanks!

I had already been through all of that Steve - everything looks fine.

I think it is a bug but there is a work round.

If I have no open connection and open a source I am prompted to sign on to a system. If I dismiss that dialogue the source opens _but_ a java exception appears at the bottom of the editor and the source is not colorized.

If I first open a connection and then open the local source it is colourized correctly.

If I then disconnect and open another local source it is still colourized correctly.

So it appears that the parser is not properly initialized unless a connection has been opened.

BUT ...

I just closed down RDi and reopened it. Now even without opening a connection, the source is colorized correctly. Weird.

Hi Jon,

It also works for me on Windows. (Mike would have been on macOS.)

Go into preferences; type Parser in the Preferences finder and locate the local file Parser associated.

Make sure the type is proper. IE If the source is .RPGLE the parser
should be ILErpg. (It will show Parser beneath the local file path.
And if you have multiple open you will have multiple listings.)

If it's not set, you can set it for the local copy. But then look at the LPEX Editor -> Parser -> Parser Associations to be sure they are set properly.

(You can click in Document type to see the default. RPGLE should say
ILErpg.)

Also check the higher level, LPEX Editor -> Parsers to be sure the Parser class is set properly.
ILERpg should say com.ibm.etools.iseries.parsers.ISeriesEditorRPGILEParser. If not, you can set it.

We ship these as defaults, but it's possible that a 3rd party plugin could replace our parser with their own. You could also Restore Defaults, then Apply and Close.

Hope this helps!

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [WDSCI-L] Parsing of local source Can somebody who has 9.8 installed please check for me if the colorization etc. is working for you on local sources.

It may be only when there is no host connection but I've not seen this with other versions - it always honored the source type.
