Error description

  • A CALL 'MQSETMP' begin to fail with MQRC_PROPERTY_NAME_ERROR
    after UI60306 was applied.
    The problem occurs because the DSA back chain is no longer set
    after UI60306 is applied - this doesn't affect MQ processing,
    as the callers registers are saved on the stack and are
    correctly restored, however it causes CEEVGTUN to abend U4088
    when called from CSQBLECS because this LE routine attempts to
    validate the dsa chain.
    
    This will only occur when the application CCSID has not already
    been resolved prior to the MQSETMP call - for example when the
    application is compiled/linked using the stub interface (e.g.
    CSQBSTUB) rather than the dlls (e.g. CSQBLB1), and has not
    issued any non message-property API calls prior to message
    property calls.

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Message property APIs fail with         *
    *                      MQRC_PROPERTY_NAME_ERROR (MQRC2442)     *

    ****************************************************************
    Following the changes introduced by PH03635, CSQBPAPI was no
    longer chaining its savearea to the caller's. This savearea was
    not used for MQ, which was using the linkage stack to save the
    callers registers.
    However, in some cases CEEVGTUN is called to locate DSA storage,
    and this requires the back chain to be set. As this was not
    set correctly, a U4088-99 abend occurs.
    

Problem conclusion

  • CSQBPAPI is changed to chain its savearea to the callers.
