PH06314: ENTERPRISE COBOL V6 COMPILING PROGRAMS WITH THE RULES(NOLAXPERF) AND SSRANGE COMPILER OPTIONS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Incorrect output: Although SSRANGE code is generated for
  reference modifications, the IGYSC2253-W warning
  message is not produced unless the program also includes at
  least one table (no actual table access is required).

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.1 compiling     *
  *                 programs with the RULES(NOLAXPERF) and       *
  *                 SSRANGE compiler options.                    *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrect output: Although SSRANGE code *
  *                      is generated for reference              *
  *                      modifications, the IGYSC2253-W warning  *
  *                      message is not produced unless the      *
  *                      program also includes at least one      *
  *                      table (no actual table access is        *
  *                      required).                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the IBM provided PTF.                  *
  ****************************************************************
  When the RULES(NOLAXPERF) and SSRANGE compiler options were
  specified, the compiler based its decision to generate
  message IGYSC2253-W solely on the presence of tables in the
  data division, even though SSRANGE code can be generated for
  reference modifications as well.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler was modified so that it also keeps track of
  reference modifications, as well as table definitions, when
  deciding whether to produce the IGYSC2253-W warning message for
  RULES(NOLAXPERF) and SSRANGE.
