Re: No EGL Project after installing EGL CE into RDP 7.6


Hi Duane,

<snip>
Look at window->preferences->general->capabilities on your RDP 7.6 install. If the EGL capabilities is
not checked that may prevent the EGL project wizard from appearing.
</snip>

Under Window -> Preferences -> General -> Capabilities I see:

Classic Update
Development (checked)
IBM i Application Developer (checked)
Java Developer (checked)
Team (checked)
XML Developer (checked)

Should I have an entry for EGL in this list?

Thanks

Larry Ducie

Re: No EGL Project after installing EGL CE into RDP 7.6


Hi Joe,

<snip>
Larry, are you getting any further with this? I don't have 7.6 on this machine, but I have another machine I
can fire up to try. 
</snip>

I've got no further with the plug-in for 7.6. Duane suggests that I should have a capability for EGL. I don't.
It would be interesting to see what other people have defined for their RDP 7.6 when they have successfully
installed the plug-in.

I contemplated removing and re-installing the plug-in but it doesn't seem to be as easy as that with eclipse
(unless I'm missing something).

I tried the usual -clean option on launch just in case there was a rogue binary that wasn't updated but at the
moment my RDP 7.6 recognises EGL in some places but not in others.

Any help you could offer is most gratefully received.

Cheers

Larry Ducie

Studio Client and Rational Developer for i.  This includes all aspects of
WDSCi / RDi.  Including, but not limited to: RSE, LPEX, Compiling,
Verification, EGL, Web development, Java development, and CODE/400.

Limited discussion of third party plug-in's is also allowed.  It is, 
however, recommend that questions about third party (non-IBM), non-open

OK - thanks Joe - I will wait for the OS edition before I try again.

Setting conditional breakpoints in SEP in V8.0.1

I'm trying to set a conditional breakpoint in SEP and in the process of 
editing the breakpoint I'm presented with the first panel which allows 
entry of two optional values: Executable and Object. Anyone know what 
these are used for? The help doesn't explain their purpose.

Then I click on Next which provides the Expression field where I can enter 
the condition that I want to break on. Problem is that when I enter the 
expression and click Finish, if I go back and edit the breakpoint the 
Expression is blank. Hence I can't set the condition for the breakpoint.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Jerry,

This is a known defect. Until a fix is available, I think you should be
able to work around this problem by creating your breakpoint from the
context menu in the Breakpoint view: Add breakpoint > Line ...
You will only be able to use that solution while you are connected to the
debug engine on the remote system. Breakpoints created in this way are tied
to the specific debug session: they disappear when the debug session ends,
and are restored when the debug session is started again.

Re: Setting conditional breakpoints in SEP in V8.0.1

Hi Sean - thanks for responding.

The issue isn't with setting the breakpoint itself, but trying to set the 
condition (by editing the breakpoint) for when the breakpoint should 
execute.

I just tried it again this morning and being able to conditionally set the 
breakpoint seems to be working.

Re: No EGL Project after installing EGL CE into RDP 7.6

Sorry Larry, I thought it might be a capabilities problem, obviously it is not.

Re: [WEB400] RDi V8 as a plug-in

Hey Kevin,
<offlist> and WDSC List since i'm not sure if you are subscribed to the 
WDSC list.

As far as cost justification goes... try this...
Say that on average that a developer conservatively costs the company 
$25/hr.  Its probably a bit more, but we'll be conservative to show the 
worst case scenario.

Joe claims 1 to 2 hours per week of added productivity.  I know that from 
when I was test driving RDP 8 I also saw these gains over WDSC7.  So lets 
take the conservative 1 hr gain.

So, $800 per seat divided by $25/week in savings.  That is 32 weeks and 
you have yoru ROI.  That means 20 weeks or $400 to the good for the 
company per developer.  $400 times 20 devs is $8000 is savings for the 
company through increased productivity just the first year.  Now, I don't 
know what maintenance is for RDP8, but its probably less than $800 per 
seat so you'll see even greater gains next year.  Not to mention that this 
is probably the worst case. 

Take those numbers to the powers that be.  Sure its a lot to pony up now, 
but pays dividends in about 8 months time.  This is a great value 
proposition if you ask me.

Thanks

The SWMA juggernaut

I have been attempting to renew SWMA on my i and the whole process for 
renewing my RDp license got so irrational I blogged about it.  Don't 
know which of you are "regular" IBM customers and which of you are on 
the developer discount program but I would be interested in knowing just 
how things went for you on SWMA renewals.  Apparently Passport Advantage 
mitigates some of the software acquisition and renewal processes but PA 
isn't an option for folks on the Developer Discount program (to my 
knowledge).
