ASMA976U

Statement too complex for expression analysis
Explanation
The statement is too complex to be analyzed by the expression analysis
routine of the assembler. It overflowed the analysis work area. The
size of the analysis work area is the same as the work file block
size. Normally, there is no problem with the assembler. The statement
can be rewritten to simplify it, and the program reassembled successfully.

System action
The assembly stops and a formatted abnormal termination dump is
produced. The dump indicates which statement was being processed at
the time of abnormal termination. It also includes the contents of
the assembler registers and work areas and other status information
that might be required by an IBM support representative if the problem
persists.

Programmer response
Check the statement that was being processed at the time of abnormal
termination. Rewrite the statement or split it into two or more statements.
Alternatively, increase the work file block size. Reassemble the program;
it should assemble correctly. However, if the problem persists, there
might be a problem with the assembler. Save the abnormal termination
dump, the assembly listing (if one was produced), and the input sources,
and contact IBM for support.
