What’s new?

Please see Missing tables and procedures for RPG - 1.0 - Release Notes for more information.

Description

This extension is designed to analyze SQL queries embedded in RPG code and create “missing” SQL and RPG table / procedure objects to represent SQL objects that have not been delivered for analysis. Links to these objects are also created. The primary goal of the extension is to ensure that a full transaction is identified by CAST, resulting from the SQL queries embedded in the RPG code, even if none or only part of the referenced SQL objects are delivered for analysis.
