SE64051: RDI 9.5.0.2 INCORRECT "MISPLACED CONSTRUCT" MESSAGE IN SQLRPGLE SOURCE FOR EXEC SQL PRECEDING RPG DECLARATIONS

Rational Developer for i Fix Pack 9.5.0.3 for 9.5

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When editing ILE RPG source that contains SQL statements
  (SQLRPGLE) using the Remote Systems LPEX Editor in Rational
  Developer for i (RDI) 9.5.0.2, if the embedded SQL contains
  declarations and precedes RPG declarations, the editor may
  incorrectly flag the source with a warning.  Moving the mouse
  cursor over the marker at the side of the source will reveal the
  message "Misplaced construct".  The source compiles without
  error.
  
  Here is an example of what may cause the issue:
  
       exec sql
          <some-sql-declaration>;
  
      dcl-s myfield char(1);
  

Local fix

• Move the embedded SQL statement to be after all RPG
  declarations.
