Support CA Panvalet preprocessing for PL/I

Hello,
in our environment most of Cobol and PL1 sources are stored on Panvalet dataset. Since the Panvalet ds-type is not yet supported in ADDI we use tools to copy our source codes from Panvalet to 'normal' PO datasets.
Right now we try to add ~1300 PL1 programs to ADDI using the Application Discovery 5.1.0.2 Build Client. When doing so we run into several issues which I addressed in Case TS002623855. The result of the analysis of our issues from the IBM AD development team was this:
"The errors and infinite loop is caused by the ++INCLUDE directives.

++INCLUDE is part of CA Panvalet preprocessing and we currently do not support that. "

Since the workaround did not work either, we ask for IBM to Adding the support of CA Panvalet pre-processing for PL1.

Thanks and regards,
Ursula Pavenstaedt

    IBM Application Discovery for IBM Z is a continuous delivery offering, and aims to satisfy the needs of a rapidly evolving market segment. Product strategy evolves and requirements are continuously evaluated against that strategy. This RFE has recently been reappraised against the wider product strategy and does not fall into IBMs delivery plans for the next 12 month. Whilst this RFE might be valid and we might look to deliver longer term, this RFE is being rejected at this time. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.
