No, it is because the IDL process has been separated
from the Workbench process, and in doing so, this
piece of (essential, in my opinion) functionality
has gone missing.
I now have it on reliable authority that ITTVIS knows
about the problem (thank goodness!) and is working on
a solution. Apparently some complicated bridge work
between the two processes is required.
Eventually, I am assured, this grand experiment will
result in an IDL that is better than the old one. I sure
hope so. My wife tells me my cursing has increased
exponentially since I started working with the Workbench. :-(
Cheers,
David
