APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Error Message: A call to the method
com/ibm/dataaccess/DecimalData.convertPackedDecimalToLong always
returns 0.
.
Stack Trace: N/A
.
The problem only occurs if there are other Data Access
Accelerator API calls in the same scope block with no control
flow between them and the method is compiled.

Local fix

  • This issue can be worked around using the
-Xjit:disableVariablePrecisionDAA option. Note however that the
addition of this option may affect performance.

Problem summary

  • The JIT compiler fails to properly set up the fallback call in
case the precision parameter to the
com/ibm/dataaccess/DecimalData.convertPackedDecimalToLong call
is not constant.

Problem conclusion

  • The JIT compiler has been updated to properly set up the
fallback call.
.
This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
   7 R1 SR3       (7.1.3.0)
   8    SR1       (8.0.1.0)
