Error description

  • In IBM Developer for System z 14.1.4 menu manager action
    $saveandclosefilebefore unlocks member after execution.
    
    When using menu manager action $saveandclosefilebefore from the
    PLI editor, the member is actually closed/unlocked after the
    execution of the REXX/CLIST.
    The REXX/CLIST will fail if it needs to lock the member too.
    Customer is using it to commit changes into SCLM and locking is
    required but fails.
    
    To reproduce:
    1- Create a menu manager File action using:
    action=com.ibm.ftt.ui.menumanager.tsoaction
    command=$saveandclosefilebefore exec
    'GAUNEA2.LABS.SRC.REXX(HELLO)'
    2- Open a pli member in the PLI editor
    3- modify it but do not save it
    4- right-click and select the menu manager action
    5- in rsecomm log, observes that the member is unlocked after
    the execution of the REXX.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • The Menu Manager action is being invoked without first waiting
    to confirm that the resource lock has been released.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Menu Manager code has been changed to ensure that the resource
    lock is released prior to invoking the command.
