  ****************************************************************
  01.The problem occurs because the set background copybook
     setting is always set as false. This parameter determines
     whether the copybook is downloaded in the background while
     parsing. In the regular parsing, in comparison, the set
     background copybook is by default set to true.
  02.When checking pre-compiler includes and comment checks, there
     is a defect in IDz that can occur during calculations where
     the return value is off by 1 and cause an array out of bounds
     exception.
  03.When editing a COBOL program containing ++INCLUDE statements
     referencing copybook there may be an unexpected error "Unable
     to find copybook...". The same copybook can be found without
     problems if the statement is moved to a different location of
     the source code. This is caused by Incorrect processing of
     source containing apostrophes.
  04.When a custom COBOL rule is written, SKIP1, SKIP2, or SKIP3
     are not recognized as a valid COBOL compile directives.
  05.This release introduces support for Enterprise COBOL for z/OS
     6.4, Enterprise PL/I for z/OS 6.1, andI BM CICS Transaction
     Server for z/OS 6.1. For the new features of each product,
     see the product documentation. Specifically for Code Review
     COBOL 6.4 Support for user-defined functions by Software
     Analyzer code rules, the COBOL Application Model API, and
     the PL/I Application Model API are applicable for use of new
     COBOL, PL/I and CICS language statements.
  

Problem conclusion

• 01.Made changes to use the correct background copybook setting.
  02.IDz has fixed the defect.
  03.IDz has fixed the defect.
  04.SKIP(1,2,3) has been added to the code rules for COBOL.
  05.Support added.
