SE74753: RDI 9.6.0.8 ILE RPG CONTENT ASSIST MAY NOT OFFER CORRECT KEYWORDS FOR A PARAMETER STATEMENT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Editing ILE RPG with the Remote Systems LPEX Editor in Rational
  Developer for i (RDI) 9.6.0.8 and specifying parameters for a
  Prototype or Procedure Interface in the editor, Content Assist
  may not offer the correct keywords when the cursor is not on the
  first line of the parameter statement. The same problem exists
  for the subfields of a Data Structure.
  

Local fix

• While coding the keywords for a parameter, temporarily add
  "DCL-PARM' to the beginning of the parameter definition.
  Similarly, temporarily add 'DCL-SUBF' to the beginning of a
  subfield definition.
