Error description
When an EXEC CICS command in a COBOL program is not terminated with an END-EXEC statement, abend U3002 may be issued.
Local fix
Ensure EXEC CICS command is terminated with END-EXEC
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.2 compiling * * programs with the CICS option where the * * programs contain an embedded CICS statement * * that is longer than 32767 bytes. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Compiler abort, active module is * * IGYCRCTL. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * **************************************************************** The compiler was passing a negative length to the CICS co-processor for the length of the embedded CICS statement, resulting in a compiler abort.
Problem conclusion
The compiler was updated to identify embedded CICS statements that are longer than 32767 bytes, truncate them, produce a clear error message about the truncation, and then pass the embedded CICS statement to the CICS co-processor which can then produce further helpful diagnostic messages.
