JR37732: JOBS WITH LARGE INTEGER CONSTANTS IN TRANSFORMER STAGES FAIL TO COMPILE IN 8.1 FP1.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DataStage 8.1 FP1 jobs with transformer stages that define
  integer constants that exceed 32 bits in magnitude may
  fail to compile.
  

Local fix

• No workaround available.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  8.1 Fix Pack 1 DataStage users that have transformer stages that
  contain definitions of large integer constants.
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Parallel Framework jobs containing transformer stages which
  compiled in DataStage 7.5.1 fail to compile in 8.1 FP1.
  The compilation fails if the transformer defines an integer
  constant which exceeds 32 bits in magnitude.  The generated
  transformer "initialize" code segment put an "LL" at the
  end of the decimal assignment, for example:
  stage0InterVar0_0.assignFromSInt64(1234567890122.999957153854LL)
  ****************************************************************
  RECOMMENDATION:
  Apply the patch for JR37732. The fix is included in version 8.5.
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• The implementation of transformer integer constant generation
  was fixed.
  

Temporary fix
