Before- and After-Hook

[mhjbuit]

It would be a great enhancement if it's possible to hook up custom software (program call).
For instance:
Before Opening a member in ILEditor: Allocate member
Close member in ILEditor: Deallocate member and if changed restore Sourcechange date based on CMPPFM.

Sounds like a cool idea, but you will have to explain what the functionality would really do.

You just want to run commands on the Windows machine or the remote IBM i when something happens?

Hi Liam, On the IBMi. Plain program call with the same parameters provided in the Compile commands and a extra User-parameter. Before: Opening source in ILEditor (Lock source if not in use in other change and save old source version) After: Closing source in ILEditor (Restore Changedate in Source based on CMPPFM with source saved in Before Hook) Providing a way to integrate ILEditor in home made versioning software the company i work for uses. And it would be super nice if the opening could be aborted via a returncode. Keep up the good work, Martin

As a note, the source member is locked when it is opened already (existing functionality).

I know but that’s not good enough. When a source is modified as part of a change it should remain locked untill the complete change is implemented or canceled.
