APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When the number of iterations specified by the maxIterations
    parameter in the ControlFlow section of the Common.cfg file is
    reached during View Dead code or Control Flow diagram
    processing, the DMH5412W should be displayed to the user.
    However, it is not being displayed, and the user therefore has
    no way to know that the Control Flow diagram or code that is
    marked as dead (unused) code is not correct unless they notice
    that some code is missing, such as COBOL paragraphs, in the
    diagram, or that some code in the Dead Code view is marked
    (highlighted) as being dead when it is not.
    

Local fix

  • raise maxIterations in ControlFlow section of Common.cfg to a
    higher value, up to 1000000.
    

Problem summary

  • Checking wasn't done for exceeding maxIterations during control
    flow diagram processing.
    

Problem conclusion

  • After control flow diagram is generated, check its returnCode -
    if excessive iterations were used, report to UI and show what
    part of the graph has been completed.
    

Temporary fix
