Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.4 compiling      *
    *                 programs with INITCHECK(LAX) and             *
    *                 PARMCHECK(MSG).                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Program produces message                *
    *                      MSGIGYCB7311-W The data item 'XXX' may  *
    *                      be used at this statement before it is  *
    *                      set, despite the variable being set.    *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF                       *
    ****************************************************************
    The compiler's internal state may become inconsistent during
    the INITCHECK analysis, causing it to incorrectly report that a
    data item has been used before being given a value.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was fixed to update its internal state correctly.
