Error description
An insufficient storage abend may occur at execution time in a program that uses BIT-OF intrinsic function. Problem occurs when specifying LE run-time options ALL31(OFF) and STACK(,,BELOW,,).
Local fix
Use ALL31(ON) and STACK(,,ANY,,).
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.2 compiling and * * running COBOL programs that use the BIT-OF * * and/or HEX-OF intrinsic functions as * * arguments to another intrinsic function * * such as REVERSE, and where the argument to * * BIT-OF/HEX-OF is numeric. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Insufficient storage abend, U4088-3EC. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * **************************************************************** For functions BIT-OF/HEX-OF the compiler was not properly calculating the maximum result length of the function when it was used in a nested function invocation and when the argument was numeric.
Problem conclusion
The compiler was updated to properly calculate the maximum length of the return value of the BIT-OF/HEX-OF functions when used in a nested function invocation and the function argument is numeric.
