That's because IBM decided -- quite correctly, in my view -- that a developer who programs in language X would typically prefer to start working in an editor that is popular with language X. This behavior is also consistent with the general "perspectives" approach in Eclipse that tries to provide task-specific adaptations as you move around.
However, that's only the default behavior. It's really easy to use a different editor on-the-fly and/or to change the default(s), and it always has been, from what I remember. See here for instructions for Version 14.1 of IDz (the latest release as I write this), for example: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSQ2R2_14.1.0/com.ibm.etools.rdz.language.editors.doc/topics/czdchoose_editor.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM Z & LinuxONE, Multi-Geography E-Mail: sipp...@sg.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
