The information center includes a help topic for disabling automatic refresh of cached copy books and include files under:
Configuring -> Configuring Rational Developer for System zTM tools -> Setting preferences for z/OS tools -> Content Assist
This feature has not yet been implemented and the options described by the help topic are not yet included in the Preferences window.
The <HLQ> and <USERID> substitution variables are only allowed for property values that are data sets; they should not be used in any other property values.
The syntax check of an off-line file is equivalent to doing a local syntax check of a remote file. Any remote SYSLIB that is specified is automatically converted to a local SYSLIB when the file is moved off-line. You do not have to set SYSLIB to do local syntax check but you can modify it on the local compile options tab in order to find other copy books on the local file system or in the workspace (that is, part of a different project).
This is a temporary restriction and will be removed in a future release.
Before creating a COBOL or PL/I stored procedure using the Stored Procedure Wizard in the Data Perspective, make sure you are connected to the database in the Data Source Explorer. If you attempt to create a COBOL or PL/I stored procedure using the wizard, and you are not connected a connection dialog will be invoked. If you attempt to cancel out of the connection dialog, it will continue to be invoked until you have connected.
For local syntax check involving SQL, a connection must be created in the DB2 Configuration Assistant. When the Data Perspective appears for the first time for a workspace, database connection objects are automatically made for those connections set up in the DB2 Configuration Assistant. These automatically created database connections will not work for syntax check. Delete the connection, and create another database connection using an Application Driver JDBC Connection.
