Self-Paced iSeries/400 Training WDSC for RPG Programmers Version 6.0.1.1 by Joe Pluta Take the first step in IBM's modernization road map. Here is what you will learn: With this course, you'll learn how to use the features and functions of WDSC to edit and manage your iSeries source code. First, you will connect to your iSeries and see how the Remote System Explorer replaces PDM. You'll then use the LPEX source code editor, a supercharged replacement for SEU. Some of the features in LPEX, such as split-screen editing and code outlining, can dramatically increase your coding productivity. WDSC is a complete development environment. You'll learn how to compile programs from within WDSC and how to use compile-time features to quickly locate and correct errors in your source code. Finally, you'll get a complete step-by-step exercise of the debugging capabilities of the tool. WDSC is the only cross-platform debugging tool that handles RPG the same way it handles PC-based languages. This introductory exercise will teach you the basics of debugging with WDSC: how to set breakpoints, display and even change variables while debugging programs running on your host. WDSC for RPG Programmers is a step-by-step manual, leading you through all of the options that you need to know about how to use WDSC as a replacement for SEU/PDM. The manual has many illustrations so you can see exactly where the options are, and what you need to do to make them work. Rather than spend hours of frustration trying to get started with WDSC, you can use this course to quickly become productive. In short, at the end of this course you will have gained the skills you need to use WDSC to Modernize, maintain and enhance your existing RPG code. ----------------------- Self-paced Training Course Prerequisites: Some experience with computer programming and database.
