Add *EVENTF to CRTCMD

Creating a command from source does not currently produce results in the Error List view in RDi. This is because CRTCMD lacks support for the *EVENTF option. Add support for the *EVENTF option to CRTCMD so error output will display in RDi.

At the very least, replicate the F15 functionality that exists in SEU in RDi so you the compiler listing is easier to access.


Use Case:

When creating a command fails, output would be produced in the Error List view in RDi so the cause of the error may be determined.

    We have reviewed this requirement and we feel it would be a beneficial enhancement to the product. We hope to be able to add it to our development plans in the future.

    Rather than the old Design Change Request, an RFE was entered for CRTCMD to produce an event file.

    For replicating the F15 functionality:
    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.

    For the first part of the request, please request an enhancement for IBM i at IBM's Design Change Request: https://www-912.ibm.com/r_dir/ReqDesChange.nsf/Request_for_Design_Change?OpenForm
