Error description

  • When starting Rational Developer for i (RDI) 9.6.0.11 with
    editors previously left open for RPG source members in i
    Projects, the parsing jobs that run for those open editors may
    not complete, and just remain showing in the Progress view. This
    can happen for source being edited from i Projects which include
    /copy files which are not found in the RDI local cache.
    
    When a parsing job does not complete, the RPG Outline view for
    the editor is not populated or updated.
    
    Requesting cancel for the job in the Progress view also has no
    effect in this scenario.
    

Local fix

  • If this happens, close the editor for the related parse job and
    re-open the editor for that i Project member.
