Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: COBOL V5 programs using INSPECT statements   *
    *                 with BEFORE/AFTER phrase, and having         *
    *                 multiple characters in the BEFORE/AFTER      *
    *                 delimiter string.                            *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: INSPECT statement may ABEND with 0C4 if *
    *                      the BEFORE/AFTER phrase is used, and if *
    *                      there is a partial match in the         *
    *                      delimiter string. In this case, the     *
    *                      BEFORE/AFTER delimiter also has more    *
    *                      than one character for this condition   *
    *                      to happen.                              *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    In the COBOL library routine for INSPECT, when there was  a
    multi-character search, and when there is a partial match, the
    logic did not correctly loop back and retry other matches.
