Hi, Programs created by Asset are normally RPG400, you can convert them to ILE by using the CVTRPGSRC command. This will convert the syntax to ILE format, and some of the I-specs to D-Specs. Regards, Martin Gilbert.

Hi,

Unfortunately code generators also generate a lot of very unnecessary source. I seem to remember that asset uses @INxx or something for indicators instead of *INxx and keeps copying the RPG indicators back and forth so it can use it’s own ones instead.

Is there a version of Asset which will generate ILE? Maybe that would be an option if it could import existing Asset programs and output them as ILE.

Alternatively there are a number of conversion utilities around – but I suspect whatever you do -this is going to be a very time consuming operation.

Regards,

Martin Gilbert.
