Rational Developer for System z

Local syntax check of a local file from the LPEX editor

Before you begin

Before checking syntax locally, you need to set local build options. You need to do this action only once.

Linux icon Rational® Developer for System z® does not support local syntax check of PL/I files on the Linux platform.

Procedure

To do a local syntax check of a local file from the z/OS® Projects view, follow these steps:

  1. Select the file that contains the code you want to check.
  2. Right-click and select Open With > System z LPEX Editor.
  3. In the content area of the editor, right-click and select Local Syntax Check or Save and Syntax Check. The local compiler is started to perform the syntax check. When the syntax check is completed, any errors will be displayed. Control is returned to you and you can continue working.
