Error description
When editing ILE RPG source in Rational Developer for i, one can select a field name and perform the Refactor > Rename action (ALT + SHIFT + R) to rename all instances of that name in the source. The rename action fails to rename an instance of the target name that appears as part of an arithmetic expression for the index of a parent data structure qualifier of a subfield. For example, it fails to rename FLDX in MYDS(FLDX + 5).SUBFLD That instance of the target name also fails to show up in the line references for that name in the RPG Outline view.
