APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • In IDz v15.0.x users noticed while using the COBOL editor's
option at Window->Preferences->COBOL->Editor->Save Actions, the
COBOL editor always does all formatting to the source code even
if "apply only capitalization options" is selected.

Workaround:
Go to Window->Preferences->COBOL->Editor->Formatter and uncheck
"Enable indentation of..." at the Data Division and the
Procedure Division section.

Local fix

  • N/A

Problem summary

  • Recent refactoring of the COBOL formatter ignored the On-Save
preferences.

Problem conclusion

  • Corrected the logic to take these preferences into account when
formatting on save.

Temporary fix
