Re: Which H-specs CTL-OPT do you use?

*NEW as a default? That's pretty scary.

I would like to know how do you setup the H-Spec/Ctl-Opt in your RPG programs : /copy o hardcoded spec H ?

Hard coded.

And which Keyword do you include in your H-Spec/Ctl-Opt ??

Example: https://github.com/PoC-dev/as400-sfltemplates/blob/main/v_lodallpg.rpgle

Usually, for production, I change the COPYRIGHT line to reflect the last changed date of the source member.

For ongoing development, I speed up compilation time by omitting OPTIMIZE(*FULL), but use it when the code is reasonably mature to not mess with it for the next days.

OPTIONs in general are very static. Reasonable amount of output for spotting errors without excess verboseness.

In short how do you manage H-Spec/Ctl-Opt in you rpg programs ?

Entirely manual. My projects are relatively small.

:wq! PoC
