Error description

  • z/OS Debugger service 17.0.4 for
    
     IBM Developer for z/OS Enterprise Edition 17.0.4
     IBM Developer for z/OS 17.0.4
     IBM Debug for z/OS 17.0.4
    
     IBM Test Accelerator for Z.
    
    
    Note
    
      For installations that install the Japanese FMID JADRH0J and
      use NATLANG(JPN) or SET NATIONAL LANGUAGE JPN to select
      Japanese messages:
    
      Because of build problems, the normal matching Japanese
      JADRH0J PTF for this base HADRH00 PTF will not be built and
      shipped.
    
      This should be corrected by the time the next PTF comes out.
    
      This means that the VvRrMm in the copyright messages will
      still show 17.0.3.2
    
        EQA1336I IBM z/OS Debugger 17.0.3.2
        EQA2441I IBM z/OS Debugger 17.0.3.2
    
      The 2nd line of output of CALL %VER will, however, show the
      proper VvRrMm 17.0.4.

    -The IMS Isolation profile dialog fails to filter transactions
     based on the input pattern.
    
     Consequently, all transactions are displayed rather than those
     matching the specified criteria.
    
     (PH68394 at 17.0)
    
    
    -JCL built by z/OS Debugger Utilities is incorrect when the
     original JCL contains RLSE sub-parameter of SPACE.
    
     (PH68681 at 16.0)
    
    
    -CICS: ABENDS0C7 in EQADCXXT.
    
     A DTCN profile contained a non-numeric character where a
     decimal number was expected. The validity check at time of
     profile definition flags the error but does not prevent saving
     of an invalid profile.
    
     (PH68659 at 16.0)
    
    
    -Corrections to COBOL IVPs. Some variables are not properly set
     to zero.
    
     (PH68929 at 16.0)
    
    
    -Message IEW2751S received during TAZ activity or in an debug
     session.
    
     z/OS Debugger uses binder services to retrieve data for
     executing programs. Binder issues message IEW2751S when
     requested to read a module that was loaded by an alias, and
     whose major name points to a different module in the
     load-library concatenation.
    
     (PH69256 at 17.0)
    
    
    -EQA9930W message displayed for debugging compiled programs on
     code page IBM-5026.
    
     (PH69713 at 16.0)
    
    
    -z/OS Debugger ABEND IN CICS ABCODE = 4088 REASON = 0000006F.
    
     This is a storage violation.  The address and length fields
     contain character data, "DSNHLI.." in this case
    
     EQA9981I - EQA00STO Internal Error 00000004
     EQA9981I - Xsto_Func    = 00B70001  Module    = 0EMG
     EQA9981I - Next_Frag->Sto_Frag_Nxt = C4E2D5C8         DSNH
     EQA9981I - Next_Frag->Sto_Frag_Len = D3C90000         LI
     CEE1000S z/OS INTERNAL ABEND. ABCODE = 4088 REASON = 0000006F
    
     EQA_DBG_DBRM environment variable specifies a list of data
     sets.  When parsing the list, Debugger does not expect to find
     brackets in data set names. The output is invalid when a
     member name is specified along with the PDS name.  Usually, a
     PDS name alone is sufficient because debugger then will use
     the program's name as the name of a member to read.
    
     (PH68928 at 16.0)
    
    
    -When macro EQAMODIN is in use, the debugger marks incorrect
     lines as self modifying in Assembler source with multiple
     CSECTs.
    
     (PH69710 at 17.0)
    
    
    -EQAJCL displays steps in the selection panel which can not be
     executed.  It should only display executable steps.
    
     JCL contains  :
     //CYBGB01E JOB 5655-Q10,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),MSGCLASS=A,
     // NOTIFY=&SYSUID
     //S1 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
     //
     //S2 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
    
     EQAJCL is displaying S2 too,but if you submit the JCL S2 will
     not be executed.

     RDS/CC fixes marked against 5724T0700
    
    -Display problems in Code Coverage report in PDF format for
     programs containing Japanese characters.
    
     2 problems have been reported:
    
     1) layout misalignment for lines containing Japanese text
     2) some Japanese characters are replaced by the hash symbol
        (#)
