Error description

  • Rational Developer for System z (RDz): RDZ client 9.5.1
    wrongly allows to try to save a copy member with an other
    name in a z/OS project or sub-project.
    
    Steps to reproduce:
    
    1 - Select a copy member in a program opened in the editor.
    2 - Open the copy member by right-click and select View Copy
    Member from the menu.
    3 - Modify the copy member then save it with an other name.
    4 - Select a project or a sub-project then press "OK"
    5 - The new member is not created in the sub-project
    

Local fix

  • Save the copy member in a PDS.
    

Problem summary

  • When doing a save-as, users are incorrectly allowed to select an
    MVS subproject as the destination for a member.  The OK button
    in the save-as dialog is enabled in this case when it should not
    be.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The OK button in the save-as dialog should not be enabled when
    an MVS subproject is selected.  The valid destination is a PDS
    (which is under a subproject).
    

Temporary fix

  • Rather than saving to the subproject, a user can instead select
    the appropriate destination dataset within the subproject.
