We have one system that shares 3 environments - dev, QA and production, each with its own copy of data files and possibly different versions of programs depending on active dev and testing (we use Turnover to promote). Accessing the correct copy or the production copy of a program or file is easy with the library list. When a user runs a pgm he'll hit the dev or qa version (depending on liblist), if there is no dev or qa version, then it will eventually find the production version. Now we're adding CGI development with the HTML code in the IFS folders and we've abruptly discovered that we know of no 'library list' functionality with objects in the IFS folders. We obviously don't want to hard code paths and maintaining a soft version of paths to all objects for the 3 environments seems ludicrous. Is there a 'library list' style access for IFS folders that we're not aware of or maybe some other method that we as noobies need to be aware of before we go too far in our current development? Charlie PS: We do have separate browser paths for the 3 environments so we know which environ the user is running the program(s) from, but that limits access to objects in that environment and it will not find an object in the production environ when needed (unless the path is provided).
