I also use Program Verifier quite a bit and agree it is more convenient
than a complile. Not sure whether it's much better as far as a
performance hit on the machine.

I use Program Verifier, it is much more convenient than a compile, but not
an essential.

Hi Jon
Believe me, we are well aware of the strong desire of certain people to
run on Macs :-) It turns out that your are in good company and 2 of our
architects run on Macs as well.
As you astutely pointed out, having the RPG rich editing independent of PV
means we can get that function on the Mac without porting those native
DLLs.
1) This is only part of the problem. We need to get all of our
dependencies to support Mac. However I am hearing some good news on this
front.
2) I was under the impression that Program Verifier is still important
functionality. Are you saying that you would get the same error feedback
from compiles and that you don't really see PV as critical function?
How do the rest of you feel about the importance of Program Verifier?
Regards,
Edmund (E.H.) Reinhardt

So what we have done is write a parser from scratch that will compute
all the information on the fly and it reuses information from the IBM
i (like file record/field information) from the last call. In this
fashion we
can
update the information on each keystroke. We have the flexibility to
improve and add more information that the program verifier did not
compute.
However, it will take a while before we tweak it to behave just like
the compiler.
So this should help in portability and increase the chances of getting a
Mac version?
Please, please - pretty please. I would _love_ to dump WIndows completely.
