Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer * * (ABO) for z/OS, 2.2 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When ABO is generating the listing * * transform to a dataset with * * RECFM=FB, LRECL=133 as recommended * * by the User's guide ABO may generate * * a long line (over 133 chars) in the * * listing transform file that may * * cause ABO to abend with the * * following message in the OPTLOG * * dataset: BOZ1446U: An I/O error * * occured while writing the Listing * * transform. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply provided service. * **************************************************************** ABO was modified to query the listing transform file specified by the user. ABO will detect if the listing transform file has a maximum record length. If it does, ABO will now truncate any line of the generated listing transform to ensure each line will fit in the maximum record length of the specified listing transform file. ABO will now also generate a new warning message when the specified listing transform file has a LRECL below the recommended 133. BOZ1458W: Listing file "" has LRECL below recommended 133. Truncation may occur.
Problem conclusion
ABO was modified to limit the length of lines in the generated listing transform to avoid I/O errors caused by line length.
