Before you begin, you must complete Exercise 6.2: Creating a library filter.
Now create an object filter. Object filters list a set of objects from your iSeries host in the Remote Systems view.
To create an object filter:
The Create a new iSeries object filter page opens:
Now create a filter to show all your source files in your RSELABXX
library.
The Select Object Type window opens.
The Create a new iSeries object filter page displays with the object type
updated.
The Select Object Attribute window opens.
The Name the new filter page opens.
The new object filter displays in the Remote Systems view under iSeries
Objects:
Now you know how to create filters and tailor your development environment. Filters can also be specified for non iSeries servers and your local system.
Now you can work with the objects you have in your Remote Systems view like you worked in PDM with a subset of libraries, objects, or members.
Let's assume you want to edit the member PAYROLL in the source file QRPGLESRC using this object filter.
Editing a member from your own object filter
To edit a member:
This will download the source member and open the editor with this member. After you have edited the member you could save it and then compile it from the Remote Systems view by using the pop-up menu options on this member. You can also create your own actions in addition to the default actions.
You have created a filter to show all the source files in your library and accessed members to edit from your filter and you are ready to begin Exercise 6.4: Creating a user action.
