Error description

• Rational Developer for System z - RDz - Outline
  
  The Outline View is not updated when a cursor moves to a
  different section and "Hide statement blocks not containing
  data items" button is ON.
  
  To recreate:
  Open the following using the PLI editor:
   Myprog1: proc options(main);
  
   dcl test2    bin fixed(31) init(0);
   dcl test3    bin fixed(31) init(0);
   dcl test4    bin fixed(31) init(0);
   dcl test5    bin fixed(31) init(0);
   dcl test6    bin fixed(31) init(0);
  
    proc_a: proc returns(bin fixed(31));
  
    if exec_i(test1 test2) > 5 then
      return(-1);
  
    if  exec_i(test2 test3) > 5 then
        return(-1);
  
    if exec_i(test5 test6 ) > 5 then
       do;
         rc = exec_i('test5 test7);
         return(-1);
       end;
  
   return(0);
  
   end proc_a;
  
   end Myprog1;
  
  
  Go to the Outline view
  Click on proc_a : proc
  Move Cursor in program to "rc  = exec_i(test5, test7);"
  
  If the "Hide statement blocks not containing data items"
  button is ON (depressed) then the outline view is not
  refreshed and the cursor in the outline view stays at
  proc_a: proc
  
  If the "Hide statement blocks not containing data items"
  button is OFF, and you move the cursor back to  proc_a: proc
  and then move the cursor to "rc = exec_i(test5, test7);"
  The cursor in the Outline view is correctly updated and
  displays the cursor moves to the the do statement.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• RDz's PL/I Outline view does not correctly synchronize the
  element selection when the previous selection is a hidden
  element.
  

Problem conclusion

• Modified the behavior of the Outline view to correctly update
  the element selection based on the cursor location in the
  editor.
  
  The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with
