Bob's questions spurred me to start looking at writing my own profile. Of course I can't find the darned page with the tutorial but I think I'm close. Anyway, I'm writing queries at the moment so I don't blow anything up. I was a bit surprised to find that query updateProfile.baseProfile tells me that I'm using the seu profile with an RPGLE source member open.

When I go to Window, Preferences, Lpex editor, I can see that I'm set to use the lpex profile. I don't think I really care one way or the other aside from the fact that I don't understand how the thing is put together. I sort of think that I'd want to have some sort of understanding before I go tinkering...

Am I right that WDSC 6.0 uses Eclipse 3.0? I was trying to have a look at the Eclipse documentation to try to follow how Eclipse fires the various classes. In particular, I was trying to see how Eclipse knows to load the RSE, and from there when I open an RPGLE source member, how the proper parser and profile get loaded.

Needless to say I am not going to be making a living reading Java code anytime soon. :-) I can see where (Windows, Preferences, Lpex Editor, Parsers) the parser for ILE RPG is registered. I can't readily see what jar file com.ibm.etools.iseries.editor.ISeriesEditorRPGILEParser lives in, nor where the source might be.

I'll stop rambling. Is there a good reference for the way WDSC loads the editor profile it uses for ILE RPG? Paper works too...
