APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
Although the rest of the SQLCA is generated in uppercase in response to an EXEC SQL INCLUDE SQLCA statement, the SQLERRD definition contains some lowercase characters: 05 SQLERRD PIC s9(9) comp-5 OCCURS 6 TIMES. This has no effect on program function as the compiler is case insensitive (for other than literals). It may however affect programs reading the processed text from SYSMDECK or using the PRTEXIT.
