Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL who have used the  *
    *                 IGY8CICS or IGY8RWRD alternate reserved word *
    *                 tables to compile COBOL programs containing  *
    *                 the keyword TYPEDEF.                         *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When compiling a COBOL program that     *
    *                      contains the TYPEDEF keyword using one  *
    *                      of the alternate reserved word tables,  *
    *                      the compiler may issue this error       *
    *                      message (or a similar one):             *
    *                                                              *
    *                      IGYDS1089-S "TYPEDEF" was invalid.      *
    *                      Scanning was resumed at the next area   *
    *                      "A" item, level-number, or the start of *
    *                      the next clause.                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF                       *
    ****************************************************************
    The TYPEDEF keyword was missing from the IGY8CICS and IGY8RWRD
    alternate reserved word tables shipped in the compiler SIGYSAMP
    dataset.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The TYPEDEF keyword definition was added to the IGY8CICS and
    IGY8RWRD alternate reserved word tables. If users are
    encountering the problem above, they should apply the PTF and
    re-assemble and bind the new alternate reserved word table.
