Code for IBM i includes 'TOBi The Object Builder for i'?

TOBi , The Object Builder for i, is a free and open-source build system designed for the IBM i platform. 

Open source development is a boon for the IBM i platform, benefiting those who value both the future and the past. Far from being a threat, open source options actually invigorate RPG development. They also serve as a catalyst for modernizing existing RPG, C, or COBOL investments.

TOBi, is used to create native IBM i objects. 

Originally developed by S4i Systems and now hosted on IBM's public GitHub, TOBi leverages GNU Make to compile only the objects that need recompiling, ensuring speed and reliability.

  • Speed : Only compiles objects that need recompiling.
  • Reliability : Understands object dependencies and rebuilds everything that depends on a changed item.
  • Flexibility : Allows for custom compile parameters and custom recipes for special objects.
  • Ease of Use : Can build an entire codebase with a single command or button click if integrated with VS-Code or with Rational Developer for i.
