PM37124: Logiscope counts the 'lc_ccomm' metric for functions, that are 'renames of functions' and 'instanciations of generic packages

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Logiscope counts the 'lc_ccomm' metric for functions, which are
  not real functions like:
  1) renames of functions
  2) instanciations of generic packages
  
  Attached are two examples :
  lc_ccomm1 : example with renames of functions
  You will see in the functions list : P.* and P./ wich are
  renames of functions.
  
  lc_ccomm2 : example with instanciation of a generic package.
  You will see in the functions list : swapcli.swap_integer which
  isn't a function, but an instance of the generic package of
  swap.
  
  Metrics for these two renamed functions and for
  'swapcli.swap_integer' have no sense.... because they have no
  body.
  It will distort the percentage of functions wich are out of
  bounds.....(and especially for the lc_ccomm metric) !!
  

Local fix
