RE: Request for CL, DDS, SQL RPG enhancements

[Bharat_Joshi <Bharat_Joshi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Mark,

I would like to see the following additional options in WRKDTAQ (similar to
WRKMSGD):
*       List the pending records in DTAQ
*       Browse any specific record
*       Delete any specific pending records
*       Add a new record

Similarly I would like to see one additional option - Print all the messages
- in WRKMSGD.

Finally, handling of 2 files in CL - one PF and one DSPF - but only limited
keywords i.e. Input Primary (IP) kind of processing.

That's my wish list.

Regards,
Bharat Joshi

        Subject:        Request for CL, DDS, SQL RPG enhancements

        To all Midrangers,

          I have an opportunity, in about 1.5 weeks, to participate in a
conference
        call with some IBM product managers and software engineering
managers in
        Rochester.  The topic:  What is missing from CLP, DDS and embedded
SQL in RPG.

          What I am requesting is your favorite enhancements you'd like to
see, pet
        peeves, how things could work better, etc.  If a code snippet would
make
        your position clearer, by all means include it (especially for the
embedded
        SQL stuff.)  If possible or applicable, please include business or
        programming reasons for the request.

          Some items to get things started:

        -  Are you upset w/ the direction IBM has taken regarding DDS vs.
SQL?
        -  Do you need more than one file defined in CLP?
        -  Do you need to be able to update files within CLP?
        -  Are you fighting w/ embedded SQL, due to precompiler
restrictions?

          I don't know if it will lead to any major changes, but at least
IBM is
        listening!

          Please send them to me directly mlazarus@ttec.com, not to the
list.

          Thank you!

          -mark
