Source code searching

[sbcguard]

Not really an issue but a question/idea. Currently in RDi, we use iSphere to search source code. Is there something similar to that in Code for i, or plans for something like that. I work in a lot of older COBOL programs and the like, and the source code search is often valuable in finding where a program is called from and various other quick search needs.
Thanks,
AJ

Could this be what you're looking for?

[sbcguard]

Eh, not exactly, with the RDi iSphere source file search you can specify the LIB you want to search in, or search all libs. That will only look for references within that source member.

For example,

This will search all libraries and all source members for a value
