Launch Run SQL scripts from rdi debug monitor variable

In RDI debugger, when working with an rpgsql, could “launch run sql scripts” be added as a menu option for a monitored variable? My rpgsql program builds the sql statement based on prompted entries on the display file. When testing/ debugging, I monitor the variable that contains the sqlstring, then copy and paste value into acs to run the sql. A direct link would be a bonus.


Use Case:

For the developer, a method to test sql script built on fly in an rpgsql. Option to launch acs, porting in sql script from a monitored variable would provide more direct method compared to open acs/copy/paste.

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