PI70276: IGYCB7104-U ASSERTION FAILED AT ./CODEGENRA.CPP:73: REGSARELIVE VIRTUAL OR REAL REGISTERS ARE LIVE AT END OF METHOD

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In certain contexts, the compiler fails to properly account for
  register use. A known context the exhibits this problem is of
  the form:
  
      MOVE source(1:length) TO target(1:length)
  
  where length is a data item.
  

Local fix

• Perform the move indirectly through a intermediate field.

  ****************************************************************
  The compiler was not correctly updating its internal state
  while generating code for the MOVE statement. The compiler
  chose to terminate rather than continue with inconsistent
  internal state.
  

Problem conclusion

• The compiler was fixed to correctly update its internal state.
  

Temporary fix
