RE: ILE program object's source information

Even when we do a two-step compile (CRTRPGMOD then CRTPGM) the module (and hence the *MODULE information in DSPPGM) contain all the source information. I would open a PMR (or Ticket/Case) with IBM. Even if Implementer is the issue, IBM should be able to pinpoint that. You could also go straight to PTC and see what they say.

By the way, the object level source information should always be blank for an ILE program. The source information is only shown under the *MODULE information for DSPPGM.

Hello Peter,

Your observations sound crazy and at least inconsistent. And the only
explanation I can come up with is this:

If the creation of programs is done in two steps with CRTRPGMOD and the
CRTPGM like we do in our build chain.

However, if you use option 14 it will use the CRTBNDRPG - and maybe that
is the reason - but I am not sure.

Ever since ILE was introduced, the program's object-level source

that an ILE program can be made up of multiple modules, each with it's
own source information.

Imagine my surprise when I happened to notice that using DSPPGM on
certain ILE programs started showing the source library, file and
member, but not the source member changed information.

Further surprise when I discovered that it did not match the module
source information, for these single-module ILE programs.

After checking several programs, it seems to have started after my
customer started using Implementer for change control. Is this a
"feature" of Implementer?

The reason I suspect Implementer is that the module's source
information shows the source library as something like IM3851S, and
the object-level source library is MODLPSRC. When I compile that
particular program using PDM option 14, the object-level source

information is blank.
