Edmund,
Using RDI 9.5, I notice some of my formatted code was moved to column-06, by the RDi 9.5 formatter.
So, some of my code such as Dcl-ds PreMsg, thinks it is a "D-Spec", because the letter "D" in the Punch-Card Column-06.
Here is a snap-shot from RDI 9.5
http://tinyurl.com/nu2gy7q
Here is a snippet of code in Text, which will probably wrap "weird" on the RDI web-site sadly...:
.....DName+++++++++++ETDsFrom+++To/L+++IDc.Keywords+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Comments++++++++++++
C076 dcl-ds PreMsg Qualified; // C05
So... the Verifier is treating this like invalid code. Because of the "D" at punch-card Column-06.
<Big Frown>
Hopefully, this will help you fix the formatter!
PS. RDI 9.5 seems to work great for me, when not using the new formatter anyway... <Big Smirk>
I must admit, that my code has right-hand comments. Probably threw the formatter off, since I am willing to bet, that was not one of the test scenarios that IBM/RDi used to test the formatter. <chuckle chuckle>
Oh well, as long as it gets fixed, for those who do NOT have great 3rd party tool like the RPG Toolbox.
Thanks Edmund!

Edmund,
I am working with Alex at IBM support. They allow me to send screen prints. So, I sent screen shots of the SQL Errors. <grin>
And I sent support the entire source file too, with the extension. ".SQLRPGLE" too... <grin>
Sadly, I did not send the DDL for our files. I could do that, but it "sort of" a lot of work. But, if needed, I will do it! <Big Smile>
I am developer too, so I want to help in any way that I can. Just let me know! GO RDI 9.5!!!!
<Big Geek Smile>
PS. It does NOT stop me from using RDi 9.5, because I use the RPG toolbox. I just wanted to test it, and see how the RDI 9.5 formatter compared to the RPG Toolbox conversion... <smirk>
Man, I just realized how much I LOVE SNICKERS! <evil smirk>

That is what I was afraid of, please add a comment to the PMR about the SQL issues, so we look at that as well.

Sadly, I "jump the gun" on saying this was resolved. I admit I errored in reporting prematurely that this was "resolved". <sorry>
After running the IBM formatter, my code no longer compiles okay. For some strange reason, the compiler now fails on my previously working embedded SQL Statements. I must assume that the "FORMATTER" changed something.
It is still push comment lines from colum-08 to colum-06 on long statement lines. That go past column 80.
Oh well, I will work with IBM support to get this resolved. I will send them my code, so hopefully they could duplicate and fix the problem.
I am NOT worried, since I already have the RPG Toolbox. But, still IBM should fix it, since it should NOT break code.
Thanks

Wow! Ran into Edmund, and he knew about my formatting problem...
On RDi 9.5
I change the indent from 1 -100, instead of *MAX. And then the indenter works fine, no issues! Cool! I thought I had to be missing something.
I will notify IBM support on my PMR, later that I guess this can be closed.
Thanks!
PS. So many great features update in RDi 9.5, now I am drooling for the next update. Love this RDI IDE! It makes programming fun, fast, efficient, and more important, enjoyable!

Hi,
I wanted to mention that the "FORMATTER" Ctrl+Shift+F did NOT actually get RDi 9.5 to blow up...
But, AFTER running the "Formatter", which includes tons of Right-hand comment past column 80. It blew up AFTER I did the Ctrl+Shift+V, "VERIFY".
That is when RDI 9.5 crashed/blew-up.
I sent screen prints to IBM support for the PMR 35067,442 Formatter cause RDI to crash. It was AFTER I did the Verify, after the formatter. Just to clarify.

Edmund,
I followed procedure, and open a PMR#35067,442 for the formatter crashing RDI on one my huge programs with right hand comments, that extend past column 80. Which I assume is the cause of the blow up.
I will work with IBM support, and send them code, that I was able to crash RDI.
Thanks for reminding me to report, so it can be resolved!

Ken,
On a separate note I was not able to reproduce the crash when doing the verify. Could you send me the offending source member?

I decide to test the new built in RPGLE "formatter", a.k.a. Ctrl+Shift+F, and it failed BIG time on one my biggest programs with over 6,400 lines.
It does not like right-hand comments, which I happen to use a ton of those!
It gave my program approximately 1,000 plus errors...
Let me elaborate in simple terms....
Starting in column-8, I put "//" followed by all "*" through the end of punch card to column 100.
When using the formatter, it Shift that code LEFT to approximately column-6. <LOL>
Then I tried to do verify, just to see how many errors it found. Then surprise! RDI 9.5 BARFED! <LOL> Java was started but returned exit code=8096.
I guess the Formatter was only designed to handle the old fashion punch-card with 80-columns, not to 100 columns, like most of us have for our QRPGLESRC. Defined as 112, 6-seq, 6-date, 100-source.
<Maniacal Laughter> :)
No worries for me, I will continue to use the Linoma RPG Tool Box plug-in, which works... <grin>
So, for those coders, who do NOT go past the 80-columns, maybe the formatter will work find for you... <snicker snicker>
Oh well, over all, I am pleasantly please with this release.
PS. I am eating a snickers bar right now, no worries! <Big Smile>

Cool, I found the formatting options...

RPG>Formatter....
You can change the number of spaces to indent. I knew it was thee some where. I have Developer friends who do not have a 3rd party inventor like Linoma. So, this will be good to share!

RDi 9.5 built in indenter, Ctrl+Shift+F, is not too bad. It is not perfect, and pretty good for the first pass...
It gets just a smidge confused when trying to indent code with right hand comments. No biggie, but different.
Sadly, because it updates the indent, it also updates all the source dates too...
I like the Linoma RPG Tool box/plug in, it has the option *NOT* to update the source dates, when just updating the code indentation. And since it has been doing code indentation a lot longer, it is more refined.
But, my test run of the built indenter is a lot better than no indenter!
This will be an excellent start for those without a 3rd party plug-in.
Thanks IBM!
