  This APAR covers three errors that may appear in generated
  Java code.
  
  1. The generator may incorrectly generate "$array" in place
  of an array, after the array has been used in an IN
  expression.
  
  2. References to a local or global variable may be generated
  incorrectly, when the variable is the target of a Set
  Initial statement and is not a record. In this case, the
  Java compiler will report that methods named getValue or
  setValue are undefined.
  
  3. The generated code for a function invocation may not
  compile when an argument to an Out parameter includes an As
  expression.  For example, func(x as int).
  

Problem conclusion

• The problems have been corrected.
  

Temporary fix
