  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.Using the refresh key multiple       *
  *                         times on the CARMA Endevor Search    *
  *                         results in an error dialog being     *
  *                         shown stating that the request has   *
  *                         failed.                              *
  *                      02.In Rational Developer for z Systems  *
  *                         (RDz) v9.5.1.4, in a z/OS project    *
  *                         that is associated with a CARMA      *
  *                         repository, some members lose their  *
  *                         association with the CARMA           *
  *                         repository after restarting RDz.     *
  *                      03.There were several Endevor API       *
  *                         errors issued while retrieving       *
  *                         number of dependencies from element  *
  *                         component list. This causes          *
  *                         dependency list processing to fail   *
  *                         leading to return code 4038.         *
  *                      04.When performing a "View Cast         *

  ****************************************************************
  01.When invoking the search request, if the storage area used
     for the response is not initialized, this may cause errors
     when processing the request. The subsequent requests may
     fail as a result.
  02.When the repository association is changed at the subproject
     level, the child processes also lose the association. In
     some cases,this may happen when the member got moved in the
     repository.
  03.When invoking the search request, if the storage area used
     for the response is not initialized, this may cause errors
     when processing the request. The subsequent requests may
     fail as a result.
  04.When processing the search request, if the package name has
     embedded blanks, the name is truncated to first part of the
     name up to the first space. This causes the package not to
     be located.
  05.Enhancement to add support for integration of IDz with DBB
     (Dependency Based Build). After applying this update, the
     RSED daemon will support the /etc/zexpl/idzdbb.env
     configuration file. Documentation for the idzdbb.env file
     can be found in the DBB documentation.
  06.Enhancement to provide a sample style sheet,
     /usr/lpp/IBM/idz/samples/zunit/AZUZ2S21.xsl, to create zUnit
     test results in a format that SonarQube can consume.
  07.Lengthy compiler options cause overly long JCL parameters.
  

Problem conclusion

• 01.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to
     initialize the response area prior to each request.
  02.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to allow
     the elements to re-associate with the repository.
  03.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to
     initialize the response area prior to each request.
  04.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to properly
     handle package names with embedded blanks.
  05.Enhancement to add support for /etc/zexpl/idzdbb.env
  06.Enhancement to provide a sample style sheet to create zUnit
     test results in a format that SonarQube can consume.
  07.Modified JCL generation to put long compiler options in
     FELOPTF, which is now part of the SYSOPTF concatenation.
