PI62826: VARIABLES ARE NOT PROPERLY INITIALIZED WHEN RUN VIA THE EGL DEBUGGER

Rational Business Developer 9.5.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• With a simple program which calls a service the applicable
  library variables should be initialized and shown in printed
  output when implementing via the EGL debugger.
  Running the same generated main program as a Java application
  shows the variables as initialized correctly.
  
  With the EGL debugger the returned variables are not initialized
  as per the following example output:
  web.Service1 is called
  (13:42:31>  . . .--> Service1Lib.testValues
  lib.Service1Lib
  constant = literalString
  variable =
  function =
  default1 = 0
  default2 = 0
  
  Running via Java application gives the expected results ie
  web.Service1 is called
  (13:43:17>  . . .--> lib.Service1Lib_Lib.testValues
  lib.Service1Lib
  constant = literalString
  variable = Service1Lib
  function = initFunction
  default1 = 1
  default2 = 2
