New and Noteworthy in TD/OMS V12 Milestone 2

Labels Support for Labels was added. With labels, you can label objects. You can filter objects of a specific label in the "Components View" of the GUI. You can also trigger action, compile and location selections based on the label.

Labels can be created in the GUI or in the green screen with a command-line API.

To label an object, right-click on the object in the task or components views and select the Label... menu entry.

It will open the label dialog that enables you to label an individual object.

  1. The Object to be labeled
  2. A filter box to find labels
  3. A function to add a new label
  4. Available labels (filtered)
  5. Applied labels (applied to the object in 1)

Task Decorator The task now only shows an error icon if the last compile of a task object did not compile successfully. In addition, the build queue view has been enhanced to not show duplicate entries.

Bitbucket Server Support We have added support for Bitbucket Server, next to the already supported Bitbucket Cloud. This includes uploading IBM-i and/or IFS sources, workflow integrations, ticket integration and merge request integration.

Xref with FTP, SFTP, SMB If your sources are not located in a repository then an Xref location can now be provisioned using a file transfer mechanisms such as SFTP and SMB (Windows share). The location type 'Files' will accomodate the file transfer protocol FTP, FTPS, SFTP, SMB and FILE (local file copy).

Xref with sources on an IBMi IASP If you have a source library that is located on the IBMi and stored on an IASP (independent auxiliary storage pool) then Xref can access these libraries by providing the fully qualified location of a source library, see example below.

Parallel checkout Xref locations Previously the checkout of Xref locations would be run sequentially which slowed down the overall Xref indexing process if a location had a very large set of sources. By submitting multiple checkout jobs to run parallel there is minimal blocking in the case of long running checkout jobs.


Edit / Display User Option program A new user option program OMUSROPTES was included for the green screen aficionados. This program will try to edit or display anything. If it is a message you will see the WRKMSGF screen. If it is a binding directory you will see the WRKBNDDIR screen.

You have to add this user option yourself. We use it as a replacement for the ES and DS user option programs.

Restarted Identity Column When a table with an identity column is processed, the identity is restarted from 1, even after records are copied back into the table.

Our customer CMA has supplied a generic procedure to restart the identity from the last number in the file. The source can be found in the QUSRSRC source library and the program name is OMUSRIDENT. Just call this program with parameter library (10 char) and table (10 char) in processing step EO for all *FILE PF objects and Object detail *BLANK (to skip source members).


Extended Views added Two extended views are shipped for the Object and Solution files. The views are called OMOBJV1 and OMEROV1. These views contain additional information from other tables and are used in the GUI. For the TD/OMS power user, these views may also come in handy.
