SE53524: RDP 8.5 SOURCE MEMBERS WITH SAME NAME, FILE NAME AND LIBRARY NAME BUT DIFFERENT IASP CANNOT BE OPENED AT THE SAME TIME

Rational Developer for i 9.0

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• If source members in different iASP's share the same name for
  the member, file and library, for example:
  
  ASP1  MYLIB/MYFILE(MYMBR)
  ASP2  MYLIB/MYFILE(MYMBR)
  
  Then both members will not be able to be opened at the same
  time.  Opening one will be successful but opening the second one
  will fail.  Closing the first one will allow the second one to
  be opened but then the first one cannot be opened, etc.
  
  This can be observed by defining two connections to the host
  IBM i where one connects to ASP1 and the other to ASP2.

  The problem happens when these two members are opened one
  right after the other. The second member to be opened
  referred to the cached copy of the first member.
