  This APAR resolves the following problems in z/OS Connect EE
  V3:
  - A NullPointerException is reported in
    com.ibm.zosconnect.WVDataXformImpl.getJSONForBytes
    (WVDataXformImpl.java)
  - Build toolkit properties for the CICS service provider
    specifying empty values are not verified. This results in
    message:
    BAQB0007E: Error with property language. Reason:
               Unsupported Language
    and/or incomplete SARs
  - Using nameTruncation=right leads to error message:
    BAQB0007E: Error with property nameTruncation. Reason:
               Unsupported value
  - The interface rename functionality is not applied correctly
    for containers in a CICS Channel project
  - Required containers are not reflected in JSON schema
  - Schemas getRequestSchema and getResponseSchema are not
    returned when IMS service provider SARs are installed
  - The interactionTimeout and imsConnectTime behavior at V3
    should be the same as the behavior at V2
  - Containers not specified in the JSON schema are returned to
    the application
  - A missing responseSchema property is not correctly
    identified when using the build toolkit
  - The default IMS template results in messages CWWKG0011W
    and CWWKG0083W on start-up, because the default port number
    is not valid
  - "action=stop" for IMS service provider service results in
    an IMSGatewayException
  - The CICS channel feature is not enabled for CICS service
    provider local connections causing a
    NoClassDefFoundException when the local connection is
    initialized
  - A blank line in sample job BAQGETSJ prevents successful
    compilation
  - The template sampleCicsIpicCatalogManager does not contain
    valid SAR files
  - A SAR installed IMS service results in a
    NullPointerException when invoked
  - The IMS service provider does not use the maximum size of
    the data structure when OCCURS DEPENDING ON is present
  - Request and response structures generated by the
    build toolkit for CICS service provider are not saved
  

Problem conclusion
