PM14321: '>' IS MISSING IN MENU ITEMS AFTER A 6.0 TO 6.1 MIGRATION:

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• '>' is missing in menu items after a 6.0 to 6.1 migration:
  
  "Design for each menu search result" on 6.0.* contains the
  following:
  <href><Placeholder tag="href" start="<![CDATA["
  end="]]>"/></href>
  
  "Design for each menu search result" on 6.1.5:
  <href><Placeholder tag="href" start="<![CDATA["
  end="]]"/></href>

Problem summary

• In 6.0x, the string fragment ']]>' (which is the CDATA end tag)
  is saved as two separate CDATA elements so that it's not
  interpreted as a CDATA end tag. Code in XMLHandler.characters()
  (which processes CDATA) was modified in 6.1 in the area where we
  handle consecutive CDATA elements; the modification contained a
  coding error that resulted in dropping the second (and
  subsequent) consecutive CDATA element. Therefore the second
  CDATA element, in this case containing '>', is dropped.
  

Problem conclusion

• Save the newly created stringbuffer in this code branch.
