Error description

  • DESCRIPTION:  Object Compare generates an incorrect version file
    when processing CCSID column attributes, which can lead to
    changes and DDL being generated incorrectly where the CCSID
    column attribute is substituted with other values.
    
    
    This can also affect the DEFAULT and NULL attributes of the
    column.
    
    
    Object Compare should properly handle the attribute and populate
    the correct values in the version file.
