APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Scanning some PL/I code, RAAz appears to loop, taking
    significant CPU, and never finishes.  The symptom is
    recreateable using the same PL/I assets.
    

Local fix

  • none known.
    

Problem summary

  • The use of a reserved word as a data name --or-- the use of an
    undocumented clause causes RAA to use the functionality named
    Soft Keyword (which is an attempt to accept an invalid syntax
    and continue processing).  This functionality when invoked for
    two-part SQL statements (like INSERT...SELECT FROM) did not
    clear all the fields from the first (invalid) attempt to accept
    the syntax.
    

Problem conclusion

  • RAA code was changed to reset all internal fields, before
    accepting the word or clause.
