Local fix
N/A
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V5.1 using OPT(1) * * or OPT(2) compiler option and compiling * * programs that contain EXTERNAL data items * * referenced in the USING phrase of CALL * * statements. * * * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrect output (due to code being * * deleted by optimizer) * * * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * * * **************************************************************** When compiling with the OPT(1) or OPT(2) option the compiler was not aliasing EXTERNAL data items when referenced as parameters on CALL statements
Problem conclusion
The compiler was modified so EXTERNAL data items are aliased with external CALLs, so that the optimizer knows that an external program call might modify EXTERNAL data items.
