PM18986: Debugging called programs with redefined PCB?s terminates with A rrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Environment: Windows
  Product name: IBM? Rational? Business Developer
  
  Program Version    :  7.1.0.4
  Description.
  Debugging called programs with redefined PCB?s isn?t possible as
   the debugger terminates with a dialog box containing an java.la
  ng.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
  
  Sample code passing PCB-data to a called program to reproduce ex
  ception:
  
  main program y4b086_2
    call y4f086d_ok -? contains PCB definition without redefines
        record py4f086d_ok type PsbRecord
        //    -----------------------------
        pcba      db_PcbRecord      {@pcb {pcbType = db, pcbName =
  'DB000001' }};
        end
    call y4f086d_nok -? contains PCB definition WITH redefines
        record py4f086d_nok type PsbRecord
        //    -----------------------------
        pcba      db_PcbRecord      {@pcb {pcbType = db, pcbName =
  'DB000001' }};
        pcbb DB_PCBRecord { redefines = pcba };
        end
  
  When the debugger enters the call to y4f086d_nok with the redefi
  nes the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown and debugger te
  rminates.

  The size of the pcb annotation was not being checked, when
  the number of PCB in the PSB exceeded the annotation size an
  exception occurred.
