Error description

• Headline/Abstract:
  ***************************************************************
  Rational Developer for System z (RDz): Outline view shows
  wrong level for PL/I procedures defined without END label.
  
  APAR Error Description:
  ***************************************************************
  Rational Developer for System z - RDz - V8.5.0.1
  
  In a PL/I program, when defining procedures without 'END'
  labels, the Outline view shows the procedure at a wrong level.
  
  Re-creation steps:
  
  For instance, use the following code:
  
   testcas11: proc(pzparam) options(fetchable);
     dcl pzparam       ptr;
     dcl pcmethode     char(80);
     /* correct */
     call correct1();
     call correct2();
     /* wrong */
     call wrong1();
     call wrong2();
     call wrong3();
     correct1: procedure;
       /* blaa */
     end correct1;
     correct2: procedure;
       /* blaa */
     end correct2;
     wrong1: procedure;
       /* blaa */
     end;                                              /* ?== No
  procedure name */
     wrong2: procedure;
       /* blaa */
     end;                                              /* ?== No
  procedure name */
     wrong3: procedure;
       /* blaa */
     end;                                              /* ?== No
  procedure name */
   end testcas11;
  
  All procedures are defined on the same level (level 1), but the
  Outline
  View shows the following hierarchy:
  
  testcas11
  +-correct1      -? level 1
  +-correct2      -? level 1
  +-wrong1        -? level 1
    +-wrong2      -? level 2     ?== wrong
      +-wrong3    -? level 3     ?== wrong
