Error description
Rational Developer for System z 8.5 and 9.0 - RDz - If variable within a copybook with 'REPLACING' has numeric prefix, COBOL parser flags statement invalid. When a COBOL COPY statement includes the REPLACING verb and the copybook contains variable definition with a numeric prefix, the parser flags the statement invalid. For example, consider a COBOL program having the following statement: COPY TEST1 REPLACING ==:Tag:== BY ==TEST==. and the TEST1 COPYBOOK contains the following variable: 01 TEST-VAR. 10 15-:Tag:-SEG-ID PIC X(5). This COPY statement will be flagged in error with the following annotation: - Copybook 'TEST1' contains the following error: '15-' is invalid. Local Fix: N/A
