Select this option to use a local copy of information required from the
AS/400 host. This information might include copy members, database
field information and NLSS sort sequence tables.
If you select this item, the conversion program will first look on your
workstation for any AS/400 host information it requires. If it is not
found locally, then CODE will try to get it from the AS/400 host. If
successful CODE will then cache, or copy, the information to a local
workstation file so it will be found on subsequent verifier actions.
The files are stored in a workstation directory determined by the CODECACHEDIR
environment variable.
Select this option when you wish to:
- Use convert without an AS/400 host connection:
- Download the source member you wish to work on to a local workstation
file, using Save as under File.
- While you still have an AS/400 host connection, perform a conversion
action with this option selected. This will copy all host information
required for the verify to the local CODECACHEDIR directory.
- Without an AS/400 connection, select this option to use the local
workstation copy of the host information when verifying.
- If you plan to work on another workstation, copy the root source member
from step 1, and all the files in the CODECACHEDIR subdirectory, to the other
workstation.
- Reduce AS/400 host CPU cycles used by Convert RPG
Source. When all the information required to perform the convert
action is found locally, little or no AS/400 host CPU cycles are used by the
conversion.
- Note:
- If no CODECACHEDIR environment variable is set, then the workstation
directory c:\CODE\CACHE will be used, where c: is the drive where
CODE is installed.
