TD/OMS enhancement to version 6.5.3
A significant enhancement has been added to Remain Software's Change Management product for IBM i platform - TD/OMS. The latest version of the software will integrate compile functionality with IBM Rational Developer for i (version 9) which will significantly streamline the entire code compile process. The enhanced TD/OMS 6.5 is available as of September 2013.
Previous improvements made to TD/OMS, that were announced earlier this year, were related to developers’ function ‘Work with Solution Compile’ in TD/OMS and gave access to compiling options that allow creating objects in the system without leaving the TD/OMS Solution Maintenance function. Further enhancements, available with the latest TD/OMS version make the compile functionality based on Type Code commands available from the GUI.
The new feature will be beneficial especially for all IBM Rational Developer for i (version 9) users. This is because the errors shown in the TD/OMS will look exactly the same as in RDI. When selecting ‘Compile’ from the context menu of a solution, the compile wizard will be shown with the related Type code compile commands. Within the Remote Systems view the solution context menu will also contain the option “Show RSE error list” to open the Error list view with information (if any) relevant for the selected solution.
The new functionality will definitely speed up application maintenance process by making the compilation process much easier and faster.
Business users want new applications now. Market and regulatory pressures require faster application updates and delivery into production. Your IBM i developers may be approaching retirement, and you see no sure way to fill their positions with experienced developers. In addition, you may be caught between maintaining your existing applications and the uncertainty of moving to something new.
IT managers hoping to find new IBM i talent are discovering that the pool of experienced RPG programmers and operators or administrators with intimate knowledge of the operating system and the applications that run on it is small. This begs the question: How will you manage the platform that supports such a big part of your business? This guide offers strategies and software suggestions to help you plan IT staffing and resources and smooth the transition after your AS/400 talent retires. Read on to learn:
