  ****************************************************************
  01.Custom-written COBOL code review rules improperly handle
     some abbreviated combined conditions.
  02.PL/I real time check was marking "SQLCODE" as unresolved
     when %INCLUDE SQLCA was in an include file and Identify
     Preprocessor statements was enabled.
  03.A "Failed to create symbol table" error may get logged when
     defining structure in a PL/I source.
  04.The PL/I parser does not recognize symbols outside of
     immediate scope when there are non-matching symbols in the
     immediate scope.
  05.When a file contains a nested flow point prior to the first
     executable line of the main program, and the flow point is
     not called, code coverage was incorrectly marking the first
     line of the flow point as hit.
  06.Enhancement that allows users to override default Java
     options generated by AKGCRX with variable AKG_JAVAOPTS.
  

Problem conclusion

• 01.Modified COBOL code review rules to properly handle
     abbreviated combined conditions.
  02.This was caused by a listener not being properly configured.
     The listener has been fixed.
  03.Modified the PL/I parser to smoothly handle unresolved type
     references in HANDLE attributes.
  04.Modified the PL/I parser to recognize symbols outside of the
     immediate scope when there are non-matching symbols in the
     immediate scope.
  05.Code coverage was updated to no longer automatically mark
     the first exectable line of the file as hit, when execution
     of the main code in a file is detected.
  06.Enhancement that allows users to override default Java
     options generated by AKGCRX with variable AKG_JAVAOPTS.
