Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: ADF USERS UTILIZING ADF TRACE FUNCTION.      *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: ADF TRACE CURRENTLY PROVIDES SPA DATA   *
  *                      AREA IN THE DUMP FORMAT. THE PROGRAMMER *
  *                      NEEDS TO REMEMBER THE OFFSETS BEFORE    *
  *                      HE/SHE FINDS OUT THE VALUE OF THE       *
  *                      FIELDS.                                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: APPLY THE MAINTENANCE FOR THIS APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  WHEN THE PROGRAMMER HAS THE DUMP FORMAT ALONE, HE NEEDS TO
  CONSTANTLY REFER TO THE DATA AREA WITH THE OFFSET FROM THE
  FIELDS HE'S INTERESTED IN TO FIND OUT THE LOCATIONS TO INTERPRET
  THE CONTENTS BY THE DATA FORMAT. IT IS TIME-CONSUMING AND
  ERROR-PRONE. THE NEW LAYOUT CONSISTS OF ALL THE FIELDS, DEFINED
  BY ADF IN THE FIRST EIGHT HUNDRED BYTES OF SPA, DISPLAYED IN THE
  APPROPRIATE FORMAT AND STILL MAINTAINS THE OLD DUMP FORMAT IN
  ITS ENTIRETY.
  

Problem conclusion

• THE MODIFICATIONS WERE MADE TO DETECT THE FORTHCOMING SPA
  PRINTING, TO INSERT ALL THE FIELDS RESIDING IN THE FIRST 800
  BYTES WITH THE ADDRESSES OF THE FIELDS THEMSELVES, THE PRINTING
  ATTRIBUTES, AND THE NAMES OF THE FIELDS, AND TO EMPLOY THE
  EXISTING PRINTING ROUTINES TO PERFORM THE ACTUAL FORMATTING.
