DBB Build Report Information

Hi

 In the DBB build report, we have 'ToolKit' version and date. Ideally that information is not relevant for a developer, instead we need the Date/Time of actual compilation.

Also under dependency, CPY showing with correct path if the CPY found the repository path (local), but if the CPY is picking from production BASE (Based on the Cobol.properties and refer below), it’s just showing the COPYBOOK name only and we are expecting like "IOCP00P.RARG.MCM.CPY.RGIC.BASE0(COPYBOOK NAME)", this would give a better clarity to a developer to identify from where the COPYBOOK picked (some time the same COPYBOOK will be available in multiple PDS concatenated). Much appreciated your quick consideration on this, and we are expecting some FIX/PATCH asap from IBM. Thanks.

 From application/conf/Cobol.properties.

cobol_compileSyslibConcatenation=IOCP00P.RARG.MCM.CPY.RGIC.BASE0,IOCP00P.RARG.MCM.CPC.RGIC.BASE0

    The first part of this request (In the DBB build report, we have 'ToolKit' version and date. Ideally that information is not relevant for a developer, instead we need the Date/Time of actual compilation.) has already been addressed in the previous version we shipped

    For the second part, this is a duplicate ask which we already got at https://bigblue.aha.io/ideas/ideas/IDZ-I-2221, for which we will contact the customer separately.

    We will therefore close this particular IDEA. Any questions, please let me know.
