Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.1 compiling     *
    *                 programs with LANG(JP).                      *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Some compiler messages and some text    *
    *                      in the listing are printed in English   *
    *                      instead of Japanese. Some third-party   *
    *                      debuggers abend when using a listing    *
    *                      that is mixed English and Japanese.     *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The method Enterprise COBOL V5.x used to set the language to
    Japanese was only compatible with 31-bit compilers. In
    Enterprise COBOL V6.x, which has a 64-bit component, the
    compiler wasn't updated to use a 64-bit-compatible way of
    setting the language to Japanese.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was updated to set the language to Japanese, even
    when 64-bit.
