When is SEU going away?

[CRepaka@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Joe,

I agree all with what you said. Well the main thing is we have to start 
RSE server to see results interactively? Running a query, WRKOBJPDM, 
WRKOBJ, we use IMPACT to cross check the affected programs and files, 
FFPLUS to update or view the data from files. We have an interactive 
application, we do CALL to order entry or Inquiry etc. so we need to see 
the screens to verify the results or enter the data etc. These are all our 
day to day activities. We do not work large development or enhancement 
projects, we do but not every one not very often.

There is almost nothing you can do in PDM and SEU that you can't do in 
WDSC.
In fact, I give seminars on that very topic: how to migrate from SEU and 
PDM
to WDSC.  Every feature you have in PDM (search, user-defined actions,
compiles) is available is Remote Systems Explorer, only better.  And 
nearly
every capability of SEU (prompting, block copy, line commands) is 
available
in WDSC's LPEX editors, plus lots more.

How an RPG programmer WOULDN'T be thrilled about the Outline view escapes
me.  And even the hardest-core RPG programmer likes having multiple 
editable
views open to the same source member, not to mention the ability to cut 
and
paste one snippet of code to three or four different source members 
without
having to exit SEU.

There are one or two caveats.  You can't have a member open in edit mode 
and
then open the same member in browse mode to see a version without changes.
However, I think that's more than made up for by the addition of unlimited
Undo and Redo capabilities.  And you can't run interactive commands like
WRKACTJOB from WDSC, but I use those rarely if ever anymore.

So, please, tell me what features you aren't available in WDSC?

Joe
