Error description

  • Rational Business Developer V7.1.0.4:

The MATHLIB.ROUND() results are wrong when COBOL program is gene
rated with maxNumericDigits=18.

If the program is generated with maxNumericDigits=31, the result
s are correct.

Local fix

Problem summary


    

  • When a specific negative integer is being used as the 2nd
argument, we can reduce the amount of code and directly
compute the return value based on the actual variables used
by the 1st argument's expression, instead of relying on the
IR code to provide the correct type information for an
additional intermediate variable.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • Software updated. Fixtest available.
